Various types of instant noodle laminated film packaging

Instant noodles are generally made by deep-frying, and the fat content is high, while the moisture content is very low because they are dry foods. Therefore, in order to protect the instant noodles from oxidation and deterioration, the laminated film packaging should have excellent barrier properties.

1. Requirements for the packaging of instant noodles with laminated film

In general, there are the following requirements for instant noodle laminated film packaging:

• Moisture-proof, anti-fat souring.
• To prevent the loss of flavor.
• To prevent outside intrusion of odor, to avoid pressure.
• Quantitative packaging, good sales appearance, no oil pollution.
• Easy to open, good machinery operability.
• Excellent oxygen barrier performance.

If not choosing the right laminated film packaging to protect the instant noodles, after a long time of storage, they will be oxidized and decomposed, resulting in toxic aldehyde peroxide. If eating these deteriorated instant noodles, may cause dizziness, headache, fever, vomiting, diarrhea, and other trouble.

2. Types of materials of instant noodle laminated film  packaging

Now, there are transparent laminated materials and aluminized laminated materials for instant noodles packaging bag, of which, aluminized laminated film is a mainly packaging material used for instant noodles packaging.

Aluminized laminated film is widely used in the packaging of instant noodles because of its high level of light barrier properties. Now the most used aluminized film structure is BOPP/VMCPP. The transparent material structure mainly has two options:  PET/CPP or BOPP/CPP. Its outer material is usually BOPP film. BOPP material has a smooth surface, high transparency, good optical properties, and excellent water vapor barrier ability.

3. How to properly store instant noodles

However, to keep the instant noodles in good taste, it is not enough just to choose the right package, but also to put the instant noodles in a suitable storage environment. If stored improperly, the taste, the smell will go bad, even in the period of the shelf life.

The instant noodles need to be stored in a dry and cool place, please remember never to put them in a humid place, such as the refrigerator, the refrigerator moisture is a lot, easy to make the noodles become moist on the taste of adverse effects. The instant noodles themselves are very low moisture food, and if left in a high temperature and high moisture environment for a long time, the environmental moisture will be transferred to the instant noodles, and with the high temperature, microorganisms will multiply extremely easily, which will then lead to the instant noodles spoiling. In summary, instant noodles are fried noodles, made in a way that the cut noodles are steamed and fried at high temperatures, so dry storage is enough.

4. Trends of instant noodle packaging

Instant noodle packaging works as an oxygen barrier and helps the product to remain fresh by keeping oxygen and pollutants out from the packaging. Moreover, the overall construction of noodle cake is fragile in nature and it can easily crack while being stored or transported. There is always a constant need for improving the packaging design for them as the consumer demand is always rising.

Bag packed

The first style of packaging for these noodles was simple bags like packaging made up of plastic polymer which used to cover the noodles cake with external packaging for flavor and seasoning. This style was effective in making the whole package airtight and leakproof. The plastic can be highly printed according to branding needs with creative visuals.

Bowl packed

The bowls were made up of Polystyrene which made the manufacturing cost rise. The usual cost of noodles in a bowl was 3 times higher than the regular plastic packaged bags so they’re not as popular as instant noodle bags.

Recycled paper and PE film

The advancement in technology has enabled us to do more out of the discarded product. Paper bowls with PE film lined inside are one of the best examples for this as they used recycled paper and utilizes them with an efficiency of about 60 to 70%. This construction is durable and can save noodles from any sort of damage. The utilization of recycled materials means that we can now manufacture better quality packaging for noodles at low rates along with safeguarding our nature and ecosystem by making sustainable packaging. These bowls can be used for a long period of time due to PE lining inside which makes them resistant to liquid and can only be discarded when they are unable to use.

Folding structure

This construction is manufactured with the use of paper or any desired material which is flexible in nature and can be folded to some extent. This type of packaging is considered as the third generation of noodle bowls and the uniqueness of the option to extend the size is its unique selling proportion. Moreover, as this packaging style is foldable in nature hence it consumes less space and can be easily carried, this helps in the long-term use of the paper bowl which means less waste
