BIB packaging for food and beverages: the key barrier to keep food and beverages fresh

Barrier performance: the core value of BIB packaging for food and beverages
During the storage and transportation of food and beverages, oxygen and moisture are the main external factors that cause deterioration. Oxygen in the air accelerates the oxidation reaction of food, especially for products containing fat, such as cooking oil, dairy products, nuts, etc. The odor produced after oxidation will greatly affect the flavor and even reduce the nutritional value of the food. Moisture may cause the growth of microorganisms, which in turn causes food to spoil and deteriorate, endangering the health of consumers.

In order to effectively meet these challenges, BIB packaging for food and beverages adopts a multi-layer composite structure. These composite materials usually include a layer of oxygen barrier material (such as aluminum foil or EVOH layer) and a layer of moisture-proof material (such as polyethylene). Through the close combination of these different materials, BIB packaging for food and beverages can effectively prevent the penetration of external air and moisture, providing an almost completely closed storage environment for food and beverages. It is this efficient barrier performance that makes BIB packaging show unique advantages in preservation.

Maintaining the flavor of food and the taste of beverages
The flavor and taste of food and beverages are one of the qualities that consumers pay the most attention to. As people's requirements for health and quality of life increase, more and more consumers want to buy products that are original, without preservatives or with less preservatives. Traditional packaging forms often make it difficult to maintain the original quality of products during long-term storage, and the efficient barrier properties of BIB packaging for food and beverages just meet this demand.

For example, wine is very easy to oxidize under the action of oxygen, thus losing its original mellow aroma. However, wine packaged in BIB can avoid the entry of oxygen, so that the wine can still maintain its good flavor for several weeks or even months after opening. Similarly, some juices and dairy products that are sensitive to oxygen and moisture can also maintain their original fresh taste and nutrients through BIB packaging for food and beverages.

Extending shelf life and reducing waste
Because BIB packaging for food and beverages can effectively block the penetration of oxygen and moisture, it significantly extends the shelf life of products. This not only helps to reduce food waste, but also brings advantages in logistics costs for manufacturers and retailers. Especially during long-distance transportation, the stable performance of BIB packaging ensures that food and beverages remain of good quality when they reach consumers.

In addition, the structural design of BIB packaging enables it to have a high use efficiency. Because its external carton has good stacking properties, BIB packaging takes up relatively less space in storage and transportation. At the same time, consumers can also conveniently pour it accurately through the built-in valve system during use, without the common problems of incomplete pouring or inconvenient use in traditional packaging.

Environmental protection and sustainable development
In addition to its excellent barrier performance, BIB packaging also meets the requirements of modern society for environmental protection and sustainable development. Compared with traditional glass bottles or plastic bottles, BIB packaging has fewer production consumables and lighter weight, which can greatly reduce the generation of packaging waste. At the same time, its carton part can also be recycled, further reducing the environmental burden.
