| Scope & content | By Daniel Jackson, Content Editor, Milling and Grain Flour is used in every household and has been throughout human history. Since it is so ubiquitous, careful consideration must be given to its packaging. Flour is generally packaged in stand-up pouches which are made by laminating several layers of plastic together, creating a barrier against external factors such as sunlight, air and moisture. Because of these qualities, it is also known as barrier packaging. Recently there has been a focus on making it more sustainable. Sustainable packaging has become essential, with demand and waste increasing exponentially.
