The growth in demand for fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), the rise in e-commerce activities and food delivery services, and a spurt in the demand for lightweight and sustainable packaging all work to power the growth of the global liquid packaging industry.

Considerations for Liquid Packaging

Prior to the products hitting the shelves, packaging and processing facilities must be set up to ensure that the product remains free of contaminants and potential spoilage before consumption.

Packaging design is highly important in keeping products protected from contamination and spoilage, but liquids foods need to be protected even prior to the packaging process.

It is important to utilize effective packaging equipment throughout the process to ensure that the products remain safe at all times. In the case of liquid food packaging lines, such equipment consists of reliable liquid filling machines and related packaging equipment specially designed to handle the product.

Nichrome’s superior capabilities are most apparent in its liquid packaging solutions.

India is also the leading consumer of milk with the dairy industry divided into organised and mostly unorganised sectors.

Despite COVID-19 induced restrictions, the organised sector is projected for a 5-6% growth, as per CRISIL. While consumption is majorly of liquid milk, there is growing demand and consumption of VAPs (value-added products such as lassi, flavoured milk, ice-cream, yoghurts, cheese, ghee, etc.).

All this means that there is a growing need for systems and infrastructure that augment milk productivity, milk processing and product quality. With increasing population, higher disposable income, higher per-capita consumption, larger vegetarian population, demand for hygiene, etc., the industry has to transition to a more organised market, with investment in dairy and milk packaging machines.

Nichrome’s connections with India’s dairy industry go back 45 years. Nichrome pioneered India’s first milk packaging machine in the 1970s in response to the Government’s call for indigenous, cost-effective packaging solutions. The first Filpack machine developed by Nichrome was commissioned at Kurla Dairy, Mumbai where the commercial distribution of milk pouches was started on 7th March 1977.

Today, Nichrome is amongst the country’s top milk packaging machine manufacturers. Nichrome offers a world-class range of milk and dairy packaging machines and systems that enable milk & dairy producers to grow their business with the quality of the product intact. From small dairy farmers to large dairies to multinationals, Nichrome partners with this sector right from consultation and customised solution development to dependable service and support.
