Frequently Asked Questions

Food packaging protects food products from contamination, damage, moisture, oxygen, and other environmental factors that can affect quality and safety. It also preserves freshness, extends shelf life, and communicates important product information to consumers.
Food packaging materials that come into direct contact with food must comply with FDA food-contact regulations. Compliance depends on the materials used, the food being packaged, and the intended use conditions.

Shorr’s food packaging experts partner with certified suppliers to ensure materials meet applicable regulatory and food safety requirements, including SQF, BRCGS, and FSSC 22000 standards.

Packaging can extend shelf life by protecting products from moisture, oxygen, light, contamination, and other environmental factors that contribute to spoilage. The right combination of materials and barrier properties helps maintain freshness, quality, and product integrity throughout distribution and storage.
The most important barrier properties depend on the product being packaged. Common considerations include moisture resistance, oxygen barriers, aroma retention, contamination protection, grease resistance, and puncture strength. Selecting the right barrier structure helps preserve product quality and achieve shelf-life goals.

Shorr’s team of food packaging specialists works with you to identify the best material structures and barrier technologies to achieve your unique goals.

Keeping your products fresh during shipping and storage requires packaging designed to withstand the distribution environment while protecting them from temperature fluctuations, moisture, handling practices, transit times, storage conditions, and other factors that can affect quality. Our specialists review your distribution network, storage conditions, and product requirements to develop packaging solutions that maintain freshness and product quality throughout the supply chain.
You can reduce packaging waste without sacrificing food safety by optimizing package design, right-sizing materials, and incorporating recyclable, compostable, or post-consumer recycled (PCR) content when appropriate. Sustainable packaging strategies aim to reduce environmental impact while maintaining product protection and food safety standards.

Shorr’s food packaging specialists help customers develop packaging strategies that align with major retailer sustainability initiatives.
Packaging costs can often be reduced through material optimization, package redesign, automation, and process improvements. Evaluating packaging performance across manufacturing, shipping, and storage can help identify opportunities to lower costs without sacrificing product protection.

Shorr’s food packaging specialists review your packaging operations to identify opportunities that minimize packaging costs while ensuring products remain protected.
Cold chain packaging is designed to maintain required temperature ranges for perishable and temperature-sensitive products throughout storage, transportation, and distribution. Effective cold chain solutions reduce spoilage, preserve product quality, and improve shelf life. A well-designed cold chain solution significantly reduces food waste due to spoilage and improves customer satisfaction.

Shorr’s advanced cold chain packaging solutions maintain temperatures while supporting sustainability goals through innovative materials and packaging designs.
Packaging automation enables companies to improve throughput while maintaining packaging quality and operational performance. It also improves consistency, reduces manual touchpoints, and streamlines packaging processes.

Shorr’s packaging automation specialists evaluate your existing workflows and recommend solutions designed to improve productivity, address labor challenges, and optimize your packaging operation.
Sustainable food packaging solutions include recyclable materials, compostable packaging, post-consumer recycled (PCR) content, lightweight packaging designs, and options that reduce overall material consumption. The best option depends on product requirements, sustainability goals, and end-of-life considerations.
