The history of food packaging board, used for the type of container ship products for the first time took a back seat to the actual sales of the products themselves. Taking the type of box to be used after a number were thought as a major focus for early production. Up to the end of the 19th century to transport their goods processors are typically easy to access materials on the market. The types of containers used are mostly made of wood, cork, and clay. The 20th century was a material change of use of the food supply and the bulk of those was formed, paper, glass and metals. At the end of the 20th century another evolution occurred as a new material has been on the market, polyethylene terephthalate, or PETE. The invention is a versatile plastic, a large majority of food produced and distributed packaged and shipped to customers PETE containers. This is due to the fact that polyethylene was very versatile plastic, as it could be molded or stamped with any form imaginable. It is also extremely cheap to produce. However, the increased environmental awareness, consumers began to demand from suppliers with more green and environmentally friendly solutions. This was done because it was well known that most of the plastics used in the production of non-renewable resources like petroleum products. As more and more end users become aware of the finite nature of resources available it was not constant clamor for more and more environmentally friendly container products. As a result, food packaging supplies industry continues to evolve and grow.
Whereas, pursuant to the requirements of the end-user needs have increased, packaging has become not only the preservation and storage is a process, but also an information and communication support to the final consumer. All food containers now contain detailed information about the contents and amount of the various components of the food inside. This information includes all components of the food, the chemical name and the chemical or physical properties of their intended use. Other information includes the content and the percentage of minerals and essential nutritional components such as protein and fat calories that are present. Another major trend today is the development and use of packaging is environmentally friendly and safe products for building packages. The development of new types of construction materials in the tank as a direct response to customer needs is an environmentally friendly footprint manufacturers worldwide. One example is the development of natural cellulose fibers that can be composted or recycled after use. Natural fiber containers other positive benefits that they are biodegradable in the presence of heat, moisture, and oxygen, and that the microorganisms consume them naturally as part of the normal diet. These everyday materials can easily be turned into any shape imaginable. Consequently, any of the intended use is a glass plate or container configurations all Can straw may be formed out of these biodegradable materials. This new development was a boon to not only the ultimate consumer, but also food supplies for packaging.
