Powder Packaging that Means Business

1. Powder Packaging that Means Business Edible powders are vulnerable to the elements. The taste, aroma and colour can be affected by rise in temperature, changing humidity, oxygen, heating, pests, microorganisms and birds. Powders get soggy due to ambient moisture that penetrates the packaging. Besides, insects and rodents can also cause a great deal of damage. It is therefore crucial to pack powders in flexible packs that protect taste, aroma, colour and their free flowing nature. With evolving consumer preferences, growing income levels and customers getting choosy about the quality of products they buy, it has become imperative - and beneficial - for traders and manufacturers to pack their powder products in flexible, safe packaging that is easy to carry and looks good on retail shelves. Powder packaging industry is therefore gaining prominence and packaging machines are finding new markets every day.
