Bag-in-box is an enhanced packaging method for semi-liquids and liquids that aims to extend their shelf life. The bag-in-box packaging system was developed as a restructuring solution to the problems associated with packaging paste-textured and liquid food products such as water, wine, sauce, juice, fats, purees, and oils. This solution offers the packaging of liquids and other food items across a wide range of applications from accessories and films to bags, boxes, taps, filling lines, and others. A bag-in-box is a soft plastic container that is enclosed by a corrugated box with a promotional print on it.
Bag-in-box containers are gaining a lot of attention, as a great alternative to stiff packaging products such as plastic containers that were prevalent in the packaging industry until a few years ago. Bag-in-box packaging has emerged as a viable packaging option for firms seeking to reduce their carbon footprint.
With consumers and government agencies emphasizing the role of environmentally friendly and safe packaging, a growing number of packaging companies are researching new types and materials for biologically friendly packaging.
However, the high cost of bag-in-box packaging solutions compared to traditional packaging alternatives such as pouches and plastic packaging is expected to restrain the Europe bag-in-box packaging market over the forecast period.
