The Advantages And Disadvantages Of Protective Packaging

Packaging involves designing and producing the tin or bottle for a product. Packaging contains two levels. The primary packaging is the container for each individual product.

He illustrates packaging as something that has evolved and is still evolving over time and something that plays a huge role in why we buy the things we do.

Shipping some parts and pieces in very expensively made plastic reusable containers. While being conscious and in favor of recycling at the start, the parts that many of these containers hold are considerably smaller than the containers themselves, thus adding to the size and weight with shipping cost. Others are reusable steel containers, when large heavy cardboard or wooden boxes would suffice as an alternate packaging source. Some items sent in reusable wooden boxes that a heavy cardboard box would have sufficed. Just one example that has been observed in a military unit, using a $1200 plastic shipping container for a $100 circuit card with 7 layers of wrapping plus a foam insert. Of all the materials used, one needs the anti-static wrapping and the foam layer, other than that; a heavy cardboard box would be more than

For example, packaging materials such as glass, paper and board, plastics and metals help protect the food item from UV rays/ light during the transportation process. By allowing this, helps prevent the growth of micro- organisms within the product. As well as this, packaging helps prevent rancidity in fats. If rancidity is not prevented, unpleasant odours and flavours within the food item are present, resulting in the wastage of the good. Along within this, packaging helps prevent the cross contamination of goods, when being transported from one area to another. Therefore, the Agriculture and Fisheries sector benefit from packaging, as they are able to prevent the wastage of products being transported, as well as being able to uphold a high reputation of the business by marketing high-quality goods.

The proliferation of packaging products and poor product education has caused confusion among end users. US consumers have traditionally viewed packaging supplies as a cost-saving resource. Consequently, packaging engineers are accorded high status and influence roughly 40% of material purchase decisions. The US market is experiencing strong growth, driven in part by the growth of the coated and uncoated bubbles segment. However, AirCap's market share remains stagnant (Appendix A).

The market of the protective packaging products was divided into two major classes, uncoated bubbles and coated bubbles. Thus different types of packaging products were Positioning, Blocking, Bracing, Flexible wraps and Void fill (uncoated bubbles) and AirCap (Coated Bubbles). In this regard the competitive structure of the market for uncoated bubbles was high with a number of competitors whereas in the category of coated bubbles, Sealed Air Corporation was the only producer and market leader and so they offered this product at a premier price.
