The Evolution of Food Packaging
Food packaging has transformed significantly from its natural origins, where items like shells and leaves were used as protective coverings. As time progressed, humans innovated by utilizing materials such as fabrics, logs, and eventually metals and glass. By the 1800s, packaging evolved to include paper bags and cardboard boxes, which replaced wooden crates as a more efficient option for transporting goods. This timeline illustrates that food packaging began as a means of preservation and practicality, laying the foundation for today’s complex packaging systems.
