Food Packages contain, protect, preserve and secure foods. They inform the general public and regulators about what is in them. They declare allergens. They are used to transport food all around the world. They declare the safety and quality of foods in them. They inform the public how to use or not use food that they hold. The packaging step is a major step in any food manufacturing establishment. They are also becoming more active, smart and intelligent. They are not only passive food holders anymore. They are able to “sense” what is in them and take corrective actions. Sensors, nanosciences and nanotechnology are revolutionizing food packaging. A whole host of laws and regulations are governing food packaging. This course covers them all. This course is for food package manufacturers and those food manufacturers that manufacture their own packages or receive food packages from food package manufacturers. If you are food safety and quality auditors or inspectors, you will find the course very useful. Around 40 % of recalls in the United States are related to improper packaging. Undeclared allergens, Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella spp. are responsible for over 85% of the recalls in the United States. This course is designed to reduce those recalls and associated illnesses and deaths dramatically in the hope of one day eliminating them all. So, this course is for all that are involved in the food industry along the national and global food supply chains.
