Sažetak
Packaging plays an important role in the containment, protection, and preservation of products throughout
the supply chain activities. For a halal-certified product, the packaging is expected to protect and preserve
its halal integrity until the product reaches the consumer. However, cases of migration of nonhalal
substances originating from the packaging materials were reported. The issue has called for halal
certification of the packaging material especially the ones which are in direct contact with the halal product.
Such interaction between food and packaging materials is considered to be an interchange among food,
packaging, and the environment and can impact food quality, safety, and/or halal status of food. The main
goal of food packaging is to protect food from external environmental factors, but food–packaging
interactions also can compromise the quality and/or safety of foods and halal status of the food.
However, the mass transfer of additives from packaging to the foods is undesirable and can alter the food’s
flavor. Other undesired phenomena include removal of some desirable flavors from the food to the
packaging and the uptake or release of moisture by permeation. An interesting possibility is that food
quality and safety could be enhanced via such package-to-food interactions.
