Packaging Materials - Basics,



Hello Everyone,

The purpose of starting this blog is to enlighten the packaging knowledge to common people who are not aware of basics of packaging materials which are being used in our daily life. Most of the developed countries people have  fairy good knowledge of packaging materials but in under developed and developing countries people are still not having much knowledge of packaging materials.

To prove this, let me share some examples and I believe you will agree and  have  fun too.

Example 1:
How many times have you heard people are pronouncing " Cartoon" for small & big paper boxes ? I am sure multiple times but technical it is called as " Carton" and not Cartoon (Cartoons are Mickey mouse , Donald duck:)) and trust me  I have seen even educated people say this.

Example 2:

How many times have you confused between the words sticker and label ? Shopping bags or Poly bags or Polyethylene bags or Carry bags ? Metallized film or Aluminium foil ? Bottles or Jars ? Are these same or different ?  All of these will be answered here along with details.

You know, list of packaging materials are huge and I am going to share  lots of tips on development of these packaging materials which will help packaging professional as well as general people for creating awareness about these packaging materials.

If everyone has a basic awareness about packaging  materials then we can reduce lots of packaging waste we generate and promote proper disposable which will impact positively on our environment and other species.

Next post coming soon, thank you.
