    PACKAGING

    Simply, packaging may be defined as that the material, form or
    vessel that contain a product.
    Definition by institute of packaging professionals is:
    “The enclosure of products, items or packages in a wrap, pouch,
    bag, box , cup, tray , can ,tube , bottle or other container form to
    perform one or more of more following major functions:
    containment for handling , transportation and use; preservation
    and protection of the contents for required shelf and use life and
    sometimes protection of external environment from any hazards
    of contact with contents; identification of contents, quantity,
    quality and manufacturer- usually by means of printing ,
    decoration , labeling , package shape or transparency; facilitate
    dispensing and use . If the device or container performs one or
    more of these functions, it is packages.”

    Packaging has been described as “one of the
    most complex functions in business today”. It is
    also a function that is cross-disciplinary in nature.
    Typically , the package not only must fulfill the
    four functions mentioned above but also must
    maintain the quality of the product ; act as a
    marketer ; cut or at least contain cost related to
    the materials used in the packaging ; and
    minimize distribution, handling , and storage
    costs. To accomplish effectively these and many
    other requirements , packaging must function in
    a cross-disciplinary environment.
    The integrated design model involves a focus
    on the simplification of the product and
    packaging design process and controllable
    variables such as form and dimension factors
    in the product properties and shape and size
    components in the package.it also requires a
    focus on integrating design engineering
    information and communication.
    Proper use and utilization of the integrated design
    model provides a number of benifits as follows:

    • Optimizes qualitative and quatifiable design processes for


    the state of the art in product and packaging design.
    • Reduces the necessity of redesign for packaging by getting
    it involved earlt in the design process, instead of as an
    afterthought.
    • Integrates desin requirements with manufacturing
    technology,distribution constraints,marketing needs,etc
    • Centralizes cost estimation efforts.
    • Employs a design team technique to eliminate “design
    department” barriers.
    • Package development involves considerations for
    sustainability, environmental responsibility, and
    applicable environmental and recycling
    regulations. It may involve a life cycle assessment
    which considers the material and energy inputs
    and outputs to the package, the packaged product
    (contents), the packaging process, the logistics
    system, waste management, etc. It is necessary to
    know the relevant regulatory requirements for
    point of manufacture, sale, and use.
    • The traditional “three R’s” of reduce, reuse, and
    recycle are part of a waste hierarchy which may be
    considered in product and package development.

    consideration

    •Minimization
    •Reuse
    •Recycling
    •Energy recovery
    •Disposal
    A choice of packaging machinery includes: technical ,
    labor requirements, worker safety, maintainability ,
    Serviceability , reliability, ability to integrate into the
    packaging line, capital cost, floor space, flexibility
    (change-over, materials, etc.), energy usage , quality of
    outgoing packages, qualifications (for food,
    pharmaceuticals, etc.), throughput, efficiency,
    productivity, ergonomics , return on investment , etc.
