Reducing food wastage has become a major concern for most countries. According to the food and agriculture organization of the United Nations, it is estimated that nearly one-third of food produced for human consumption amounting to 1.3 billion tons is wasted annually.
Packed frozen products such as meat, bakery and confectionery products, dairy products, and daily meal products get wasted when packaged products remain unsold over a prolonged period. These wastages pose a significant threat to retailers. To overcome this problem, frozen food packaging vendors have come up with active packaging to maintain quality and increases the shelf life of food products.

Many packaging companies are planning to devise innovative products. However, most of them are focused on inventing new packaging designs or attempting to redesign existing packaging.
