Rice Packaging

The main demand of rice packaging is mold resistance, moisture barrier and pest resistance.

 

Therefore, the designing of rice packaging bags should consider both the heat resistance and moisture resistance, as well as puncture resistance, and can withstand the pressure to ensure the safety of rice products in the transportation and food safety. Also, the design of the rice packaging bags should be fully considered the needs of consumers. For example, many rice packaging brands design a carrying handle at the top of the rice bag closure so that consumers can easily carry the product away during purchase and pick-up. Some brands have added a zipper design at the closure.

The most important function of rice packaging is to preserve freshness. Because rice faces the problem of oxidation of lipids during the storages, it can lose its flavor if stored in an inappropriate way. When summer comes, the temperature and humidity increases, and this environment will speed up the growth of various bacteria and molds. Moldy rice is not edible because it contains aflatoxin, which has toxicity and is a carcinogenic substance that can cause stomach and liver cancer. Therefore, high-quality packaging bags play a key role in ensuring the food safety of rice.

 

Rice packaging are in a variety of forms: small grams packaging bags are mostly using zipper bags and four side seal bags, while large grams of rice (5kg-10kg) packaging choose four side seal bags or middle side seal bag. We would like to recommend vacuum bags: vacuum rice packaging is now a popular form of rice packaging. Vacuum-packed rice tends to be stored for a longer shelf life.

Why are vacuum rice bags so popular now? Vacuum rice bags can keep out oxygen and inhibit the growth of bacteria and other microorganisms, making rice easy to store. It also saves volume and shipping cost. And the key point is that the shelf life of vacuum-packed rice can be up to 12-18 months. For most rice manufacturers, they often use vacuum packaging in order to retain the quality of rice.

 

Therefore, vacuum rice bag packaging is becoming more and more popular. Many packaging suppliers and rice brands have caught on to this trend and have started to use vacuum rice bag packaging.

The biggest the risk of rice storage is the pest problem, which is difficult to overcome if the rice is not vacuum packed. The size and weight of the pest eggs are very similar to the rice grains, so it is difficult to screen them all out. Once the temperature is appropriate, the eggs in the rice bag will hatch and the quality of the rice will be affected. Whereas if using vacuum packaging, there is no oxygen inside the rice bag, and the eggs cannot hatch, so at least there will be no pests inside the bag within the shelf life. Considering the cost, the cost of rice vacuum packaging bags will be higher than normal rice bags, but the packaging performance provided far more than normal bags. It greatly enhances the food safety of rice. Only high-quality bags can provide excellent protection performance for the product and, also, make consumers pleased with the purchase.

Some brands design transparent areas on the packaging so that consumers can see through them to check the quality of the rice: they can clearly see the color and shape of the rice. If brands want to show the high quality of rice, it is recommended to use transparent packaging or design transparent windows so that customers can see the product clearly.
