2.3.1 HIGH INITIAL COSTS

The active packaging requires high initial investment as various active packaging
machines

and

equipment

are

very

expensive.

Moreover,

active

packaging

manufacturers are required to send their packaging materials to testing laboratories

where the packaging products are checked for overall chemical migration, additives
and other traceable residual substances in order to ensure that the content is safe
for consumption during its shelf-life. Laboratory experts have extensive knowledge
on international and national food contact regulations and health regulations and
guidelines for which they check and pass the particular packaging material. As a
result, testing costs involved in manufacturing of these advanced packaging solutions
raise the operational costs which can be borne only by well-established players. Thus,
high initial investment and testing costs of these packaging solutions pose a challenge
to the growth of this industry. These high costs ultimately increase the end product
costs and thereby restraining the growth of overall industry and lesser competition
as compared to substitute packaging solutions.

For food packaging, XXXX is the major active packaging technology used worldwide,
owing to rising demand for multipacks of food products; as they offer choices like
different flavors of the same food item, or the same type of food product in several
small packs.
Active packaging for food in different countries is also being driven by stringent food
and health regulations all over the world. For instance, in the EU, GENERAL FOOD

LAW regulation requires only safe food and feed to be placed in the market or fed to
food-producing animals. It also provides a basic criterion for establishing whether
food or feed is safe to use. Regulation requires manufacturers to provide all the

targeted and accurate information to the customers. It also removes or bans the
faulty food or feed from the market. Moreover, if the product is imported, the
importers are required to know the seller of that product from the exported country.
Recently in Australia, the Government introduced a new country of origin food
labeling system which commenced on 1 July, 2016. Under this new food law,
packaged food must contain either of the following information: the country where
the food was produced/made/grown or the country where the food was manufactured
or packed and that the food is a mix of ingredients imported into that country or a
mix of local and imported ingredients. The manufacturers have two years to change
their food labels when the law will come into effect from 1 July, 2018.
Similar laws are being formulated across different countries for public safety and will
lead to increasing implementation of active packaging solutions across different
industries. (Detailed analysis will be available in the complete report.)
