Coffee is one of the most popular beverages nowadays. As people's awareness of food safety continues to improve, the requirements for product packaging have also increased, especially coffee packaging, a common beverage packaging, which is a problem that consumers are more concerned about. The materials of coffee bags are also very diverse. What is the best material for coffee bags?
Coffee bags of different materials have different characteristics, and they will also have different functions and effects on coffee bags. The following introduces the characteristics of coffee bags of several commonly used materials:
Paper coffee bags are one of the traditional packaging methods, with the characteristics of environmental protection and good air permeability. However, paper packaging cannot effectively isolate air, moisture, and odor, so coffee beans are easy to absorb moisture and odor in the air. Affects the taste of coffee. In addition, paper coffee bags are prone to wear and tear during transportation.
Aluminum foil coffee bags
Aluminum foil coffee bags are one of the most widely used packaging materials at present. They have the advantages of being moisture-proof, anti-oxidation, and odor-proof, and can effectively protect the freshness and quality of coffee beans. However, the biggest disadvantage of aluminum foil coffee bags is the recycling problem. Aluminum foil is made of metal and causes great environmental pollution after being discarded.
Plastic coffee bags
Plastic coffee bags are lightweight, moisture-proof, highly transparent, have good display effects, and are low in cost. Common plastic materials include polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), etc. However, the recycling and treatment of plastic coffee bags are relatively difficult, which puts a certain amount of pressure on the environment.
With the improvement of environmental awareness, biodegradable materials are increasingly used in coffee packaging. These materials can be decomposed by microorganisms in the natural environment, reducing pollution to the environment. Common biodegradable materials include polylactic acid (PLA), bio-based plastics, etc. Although the prices of these materials are relatively high, they will increase costs.
