Textbook in PDF format The progress that has been made over the last decade in the preparation, development, processing, and marketing of food has to a large extent been made possible by innovations and developments in the ways that thermoplastics, in conjunction with paper, metal foils, adhesives and other materials, have been combined and formed into the appropriate configurations to provide the properties required. Much has been said, written and published about retort pouches, modified atmosphere packaging and aseptic preservation processes, and even more about the newer methods of distribution and retailing of all kinds of food. However, all of this material needed to be digested, condensed into a logical framework and appraised, and possible further developments considered. In many instances, the original research and development was carried out in conjunction with one or more of the research organisations in membership with IAPRI, the International Association of Packaging Research Institutes, and it was felt that a book which attempted to provide a review of the more important developments would be useful to practitioner and student alike. This volume therefore aims to provide the food technologist with a more comprehensive understanding of the packaging aspects of the marketing and distribution of food; the packaging technologist with an insight into the basics of food technology that must influence his thinking; and the business executives concerned with food and its distribution with a readable account of past achievements and possible future developments. The student and industrial trainee should also benefit from a study of the ways in which these developments have taken place. Each of the chapters was written by a senior member of one of the leading IAPRI Institutes which has made a study of the subject matter and can consider the future possibilities with the least commercial bias. As it was thought desirable that each chapter should provide a complete picture of its area, there is inevitably a small overlap between certain chapters. However, this has been kept to a minimum by cross-referencing. My personal thanks are due to all of the authors for improving the format of their chapters from the layout that I originally suggested, and for accepting the relatively small amount of editing that was needed to bring the work into what, I trust, is an integrated account of the more recent developments in food packaging. 1 Retortable plastic packaging.
