Retort packaging refers to sealing cooked or semi-cooked food materials into flexible and sterilized plastic pouches to keep them fresh for an extended time period without preservatives. It comprises multiple steps, such as heat sterilizing the cooked food to free it from contaminants and kill microorganisms, pouring it into retort pouches, and placing the bags in an autoclave to steam sterilize for retaining the flavor of the food. It is compact, easy to handle, and reduces the requirement for excessive storage space and logistic costs. It is manufactured from polyester, aluminum foil, nylon, and polypropylene cover laminated together with thermostable adhesives to protect the inner contents from light, odors, and abrasion. It is leakproof, can withstand temperature changes, and requires minimum energy for production. Retort packaging is durable and environment-friendly and maintains the flavor, texture, and aroma of the food. It also prevents fungal and bacterial growth and restricts any enzyme action in the packaged food. It does not corrode externally and preserves the pH of the contents. It heats the packed food and enables effective branding with rotogravure printing. As a result, it is widely utilized in the food and beverage (F&B) and defense industries across the globe.
