Hygroscopic WOOD Strong Properties depend on the moisture content in timber Abrasive Good hardness Inherent defects Susceptible to fungus and microbial attacks Dry wood susceptible to warping and bending Fabrication of wood into boxes and crates is manual Wood is becoming scarce.

Paper is a hygroscopic material it

absorbs moisture in high humid condition and it looses moisture in dry condition.

PAPER & PAPER BOARD

The mechanical properties of paper is influenced by the moisture content of the paper Mechanical strength and elongation are generally low. Paper provides stiffness and shape to the pack. Paper offers an excellent printing surface. Many varieties of paper for special application grease Susceptible to tear and puncture.

GLASS
Chemically inert Non-permeable Transparent can be coloured Moulable to any shapes High strength Light weight Highly brittle Raw materials for manufacture are easily available Decoration through special process (frosting and ceramic printing) Eco friendly

 One of the oldest form of sacking Strong Natural fibre Made from renewable source as compared to the synthetic fibres Being an agricultural product the availability depends on the climatic variations.

JUTE

Very strong Impermeable material Good printing surface Susceptible to erosion unless lacqueUred or coated Susceptible to denting Can be used as thing foils to improve the permeation rates in plastic laminates Can be retorted/sterilized easily for food preservation. Particularly useful for food products which require long shelf life. Can withstand internal pressures Can be used for hot filling Food products Manufacturing and filling can be done at high speeds.

METAL

 Variety of materials each varying in properties. High mechanical strength and high elongation. Plastics in general (with a few exceptions) are not moisture sensitive. It can be used both in the flexible forms and the rigid forms. Heat sensitive. Can be moulded into shapes through various processing techniques. It is impermeable to water ingress but not to moisture. The moisture or gas ingress depends on the type of plastics, the thickness of the materials, the atmospheric conditions etc. Different plastics can be combined to form a composite material to achieve the desired properties for the product protection. Surface is polar in nature and hence direct printing is difficult in most cases. Generally plastics have good tear, puncture and abrasion resistant properties. Generally they are translucent to clear CSP but can FOR SNDT UNIVERSITY TRG AIDS be
