Market Definition

Retort packaging is a type of food packaging made from a laminate of flexible plastic and metal foils. It allows the sterile packaging of a wide variety of food and drink handled by aseptic processing, and is used as an alternative to traditional industrial canning methods. Packaged foods range from water to fully cooked, thermo-stabilized (heat-treated), high-caloric (1,300 kcal on average) meals like Meals, Ready-to-Eat (MREs), which can be eaten cold, warmed by submerging in hot water, or heated with a flameless ration heater, a meal component first introduced by the military in 1992. Field rations, space food, fish products, camping meals, quick noodles, and companies like Capri Sun and Tasty Bite all employ retort packaging.

Initially, the retort packaging were developed for industrial applications and pipe-organs. Gradually the design was adapted in the bio-pharmaceutical industry for sterilizing methods by using compliant materials. And now it is being used in almost every industry for safe production and adequate infrastructure, such as food & beverage, and chemical processing among other verticals.

Drivers

Increasing demand among consumers for preservative-free products

Retort takes place when non-sterile products are hermetically sealed, which literally means non-sterile packaging. The packaging is loaded into a retort pressure vessel and subjected to pressurized steam. The product is also exposed to high temperatures for a much longer period than in hot-filling. The additional time can significantly deteriorate the overall quality and nutritional content of the product.

The increasing demand among consumers across the globe for preservative-free products is a key driver for the global retort packaging market. As consumers are getting more concerned about the harmful effects of preservatives in their beverages, the demand for preservative-free products is at its peak.
