Packaging materials Lesson 6 CHARACTERISTICS OF METALS AND METALLIC CONTAINERS 6.1 Introduction Metal packaging materials are appropriate for packaging of light, moisture and oxygen sensitive products and carbonated beverages such as soft drinks, flavoured milk etc. 1. Mainly aluminum is used as packaging material in the form of cans. 2. Also tin plates are now a day used as metal packaging material. 3. Tin plate is solid, heavy steel covered with tin to protect it against rust. It is used to package canned foods. It can be recycled and again can be used as an outer packing material. 4. The earliest metals used by man were those found in native state, which were soft and easily workable. These include copper, silver and gold. 5. The commercial packaging of food stuffs in metal containers began in the early 19th century. 6. Metal cans, made from steel or aluminum, are widely used by the food industry to pack a wide range of foods. There are two basic types of metal cans: 1. Those that are sealed using a ‘double seam’ and are used to make canned foods: Double-seamed cans are made from tinplated steel or aluminum and are lined with specific lacquers for different types of food.

  • Liquids Filling and Packaging
    pg_0001 Page 1 of 3 home .cd3wd .ar .cn .de .en .es .fr .id .it .ph .po .ru .sw LIQUIDS FILLING AND PACKAGING Liquids can be either thin (eg oils, milk, syrups and juices) or thick and viscous (eg sauces, pickles, hot jams and confectionery). The type of filler used is different for each group of liquids . The packaging requirements of different liquids are similar in that the liquid must be contained but they differ according to whether the liquid is spoiled by air, light, bacteria etc. Filling Low viscosity (thin) liquids The simplest filler is a jug but this is often too slow for small businesses. A simple filler can be made by fitting one or more taps to the base of a bucket, see Figure 1. The bucket should be stainless steel for hot acid liquids (eg fruit juices) or food grade plastic for cold filling. Iron and copper should not generally be used in food handling. A more sophisticated system in which the volume of liquid filled into file:///D:/cd3wddvd/NoExe/Master/dvd001/dvd1/ITDG/LIQPACK/EN/pg_0001.htm 08/ 11/ 2011 pg_0001 Page 2 of 3 volume of liquid filled into iseach controlled, container is obtained using a piston filler, see Figure 2. This is made from glass or the materials described above. Viscous liquids Because these liquids do not flow easily, the piston filler is the preferred option. Liquids that contain particles Both low and high viscosity liquids may contain particles of food (eg fruit, puips, sauces and pickles). The fillers described above will tend to become blocked by particles and a simple filler made from a stainless steel or plastic funnel is more suitable, Figure 3.

  • OMVE FS210 & FS211 Clean-Fill
    ® FS210 & FS211 Clean-Fill Hygienic Filling & Closing Bench When hygienic filling is your priority There are still many laboratories and pilot plants that fill and close the heat-treated product in an open contaminated atmosphere. Moreover the filling line has not been part of a CIP and/or SIP procedure. This will create unacceptable variations in the quality of your trials and doesn’t give a representative simulation of an industrial process line. With the special designed Clean-Fill & Clean-Fill ESL ,OMVE offers the widest range of filling benches for laboratories and pilot plants within the food industry. Different packaging can be filled and closed within the hygienic environment. Two types of hygienic fillers: 1. FS210: The Clean-Fill Basic is a filler in stainless steel with a filling point. A foot pedal for filling the containers is controlled by an automatic hygienic valve. A hygienic closed loop during cleaning is standard. 2. FS211: The Clean-Fill ESL (Extended Shelf Life) regroups all features of the Clean-Fill Basic but also includes a temperature sensor at the coldest spot as well as a touch screen to display this temperature during sterilization. The condensate cooler ensures controllable cooling of the pressurized water or steam during sterilization Unique Features F FS210 FS211 illing Sterile Down flow filling bench Adjustable front window Minimum height of the unit, no need for dissembling S Complete Stainless Steel system ystems Integrated in cleaning loop Aseptic control valves Larger versions (‘’Extended’’) available Different closing devices can be installed Integrated in sterilization loop TFT touch screen guidance during sterilization Working principle FS The OMVE Clean-Fill creates a class 100 working environment ensuring protection for (non-hazardous) products.
