Brasil Pack Trends 2020

BrasilPackTrends2020 225 safety & regulatory issues (THAKUR; KARLSEN; FORÁS, 2012). Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) and other traceability systems offer significant opportunities for manufacturers, retailers and consumers. Finally, communication between themanufacturer and the package user is essential for all parties to comply with safety requirements, since the flow of information must be reciprocal/interactive in order to continuously improve the systems. Picture 8.1 illustrates an example of information flow in the food chain. Traceability is another tool that becomes increasingly necessary for the safety and identification of origin of packaged products and is now a requirement of some laws, for example, European legislation and certification standards. According to the international organization for standardization (ISO NS-8402), traceability is the ability to track the history and use and to locate an entity by means of recorded/ registered information. The item to be tracked can be physical or virtual and must have a unique identification FIGURE 8.1 Information flows along the food packaging supply chain ASSOCIAÇÃO BRASILEIRA DE NORMAS TÉCNICAS.
