Cereals Packaging Testing Instruments

Breakfast cereals are made from processed grains often eaten as the first meal of the day. Cereals are ready to serve food and made from whole grains and milled grains. The product is in the form of flaked, puffed, shredded, and granulated products. Packaging of cereals depends on the nature of the product such as moisture, retention of nutrients and prone to microbes. Customers expect their products crispy and retention of nutrition in the product. These products are highly sensitive to moisture. Moisture ingress results in softening and microbial spoilage. Most cereals are currently packaged using plastics, such as polyethylene, polypropylene, ethylene vinyl alcohol, polyethylene terephthalate, polyamide and many more. Now companies are looking towards sustainable materials, such as paper and plant-based packaging, removing the need for the plastic inner bags found inside traditional cardboard package cereals.

The packaging manufacturers need to retain the quality of cereals till it reaches its end customer. Cereals Packaging Testing Instruments are used to test the quality of packaging so that the products remain fresh for longer usage.
