INDIA RETORT PACKAGING MARKET
INTRODUCTION
Retort packaging combines the advantages of the metal can with the frozen boil-in-the-bag. The attributes of flexible containers offer benefits for the consumer, retailer, and manufacturer alike. The thin profile of the pouch or container provides rapid heat transfer for both preparation and for sterilization during processing.
A 30–40% reduction in processing time is possible, with energy savings. Reduced heat exposure results in improvements in taste, color, and flavor; there are also fewer nutrient losses.
Preparation of products that need to be heated to serving temperature can be accomplished in 3–5 min by immersing the pouch in boiling water or placing the plastic container in a microwave oven.
Storage space of the Retort packaging or container in a paperboard carton is no larger than that for cans; disposal space is less. Shelf-life of retort pouch products is equivalent to that of foods in metal cans.
Refrigeration or freezing is not required by packers, retailers, or consumers. Pouches and containers do not corrode externally and there is a minimum of product–container interaction. Opening the pouch requires only tearing the pouch across the top at the notch in the side seam, or by using scissors.
The container lid may be peeled open or cut with a knife. The flexible container is safer in that a consumer would not be cut as on a metal can or be faced with broken.
