It has been transformed over time into food grade packing material approved by regulatory bodies.The food packaging trends have changed in terms of application and technology and have become a visual part of the company's brand popularity. The rise in nuclear families and disposable income has given rise to smaller packing sizes of food and related products. From shelf bottles, lids, and containers to packing for frozen food, airtight films and wraps, plastics are used in a wide array of packaging solutions. Additionally, the rise of on-thego and heat-and-eat food products has created demand for plastic flexible packaging solutions in recent times.

To recover post pandemic, they increased production capacities, with innovative approaches and affordable prices, to meet consumer demands. An increase in use of sterilising solutions as a result of the coronavirus epidemic is also driving the demand for the overall industry.
