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
