The Evolving Landscape of Thermoformed Packaging in Indian Fresh Produce
At Thin Wall Packaging Asia, Bangkok, a conference organised by AMI, Mr. Sukhdeep Sethi spoke about the ‘Evolving Landscape of Thermoformed Packaging in Indian Fresh Produce’.
During the presentation, he discussed the need for packaging of fresh produce, advantages of thermoformed plastics, the problem of food wastage in India, among other packaging-related topics.
Mr. Sethi also spoke about the importance of getting the produce delivered from the farm to the consumers in the best possible condition. To achieve that, packaging becomes a must as it ensures minimum damage and wastage.
In addition, factors like the growing awareness about thermoform packaging, demand for on-the-go packs, and increasing level of urbanisation has led to a fast growth of modern retail over the past 7 years.
Thermoform packaging offers many advantages like longer shelf life, growth in sales due to fixed SKUs, and enhanced presentation value. Moreover, with the advancements happening so close to home, many exporters – especially grape exporters – no longer purchase imported punnets and have replaced them with local options.
