1.0 INTRODUCTION

PACKAGING OF CANDIES

Candy wrapper or sweets wrapper is a common term for this packaging.

1.1 Purposes of packaging

Packaging preserves aroma and flavor and eases shipping and dispensation. Wax paper seals

against air, moisture, dust, and germs, while cellophane is valued by packagers for its

transparency and resistance to grease, odors and moisture. In addition, it is often reseal

able. Polyethylene is another form of film sealed with heat, and this material is often used to

make bags in bulk packaging. Saran wraps are also common. Aluminum foils wrap chocolate

bars and prevent transfer of water vapor, while being lightweight, non-toxic and odor proof.

Vegetable parchment lines boxes of high-quality confections like gourmet

chocolates. Cardboard cartons are less common, though they offer many options concerning

thickness and movement of water and oil.

.

Packages are often sealed with a starch-based adhesive derived from tapioca, potato, wheat,

sago, or sweet potato. Occasionally, glues are made from the bones and skin of cattle and

hogs for a stronger and more flexible product, but this is not as common because of the

expense.

1.2 History

Prior to the 1900s, candy was commonly sold unwrapped from carts in the street, where it

was exposed to dirt and insects. By 1914 there were some machines to wrap gum and stick

candies, but this was not the common practice. After the polio outbreak in 1916, unwrapped

candies garnered widespread censure because of the dirt and germs. At the time, only upscale

candy stores used glass jars. With advancements in technology wax paper was adopted, and

foil and cellophane were imported from France by DuPontin 1925. Necco packagers were

one of the first companies to package without human touch.

1.3 Marketing and design

Packaging helps market the product as well. Manufacturers know that candy must be

hygienic and attractive to customers. In the children's market quantity, novelty, large size and

bright colors are the top sellers. Many companies redesign the packaging to maintain

consumer appeal.

Figure 1.3.0- Packaging may be used as a type of gift wrapping

1.4 Shelf life

Most candies can be safely stored in their original packaging at room temperature in a dry,

dark cupboard for months or years. As a result, the shelf life of candy is longer than for many

foods.

2.0 Candy Wrappers

Over the course of centuries, candy manufacturers used wrappers as an excellent means to

attract customers, advertise their products and protect its contest from wide range of harmful

effect. Here you can find out more about how candy wrappers came into use.

2.1 Old Time Candy Wrapper Collection

Candy wrappers are the common term for the printed, outer covering of candy bars and

confectionary items – used to protect and promote the product.

2.2 Candy Wrappers History and Origins

Nobody knows when or where first candy wrapper came from, but we can safely assume the

reasons which forced the candy makers to embrace wrappers as one of the most important

parts of their product. As the recipes for creating many new candies begun emerging during

European industrial revolution, sellers of candy quickly noticed that increased competition

demands several improvements - a way to protect some of their ingredients from outside

influences (heat, moisture), preserve the structure of the candy against biological threats that

arise after prolonged life on shelves (microbes) and finally as a perfect way to market their

product to prospective customers. Even more importantly, chocolate and candies were in the

beginning very expensive, and much need was invested into enabling such products to remain

edible for as much time as possible.

One of the defining moments in the history of candy wrappers was the introduction of "nickel

bar" chocolate in 1890. This product created by Milton S. Hershey became instant success, as

chocolate finally became available to everyone. By end of Second World War, Hershey's

factory produced over 24 million bars o chocolate per week, and the craze for packaged

candies gripped entire world. As the years went by since the appearance of "nickel bar",

manufacturers produced more and more colorful wrappers whose biggest goal was the

successful communication to the consumers. In modern times governments of many countries

around the world regulate the laws regarding candy transportation, prevention about

contamination, providing information about candy products, which are all connected to the

candy wrappers.

Here are some of the most important uses of candy wrappers:

Protection - Many ingredients of candy (chocolate, gelatin, and others) are not suited for

prolonged influence of heat, moisture and pressure. For that purpose, every candy has its own

unique system for wrapping and protecting its ingredients.

Preservation - Airtight seals of wrappers are absolutely crucial from protecting the candy

from harmful outside influences, such as microbes, contaminants and unwanted human

tampering. This represents one of the best measures in prolonging the shelf life of candy

products.

Marketing - Outside layer of candy packaging is not only useful for informing the customers

about the contest, ingredients, dietary information of particular candy, bar is very powerful

marketing and advertising tool that attracts the users in many innovative ways.

5.0 Wrapping materials: Film, Paper, Foil

Often when people talk about plastic films, they treat them as one type of material, grouping

all flexible plastic packaging into a single category. What they do not realize is that plastic

films compose a broad category of materials that can be relatively simple or complex

depending on the demands of a particular product or package. They can be sourced from

petroleum or from plants including wood or corn. They can be biodegradable or home

compostable or be reused for energy. They can be laminated including metal and different

films. They can have coatings to enhance the product or retard exposure to gases.

Like plastic bottles and containers, film can be made with different resins, each of which has

a unique combination of properties that makes it ideal for certain applications. For example,

low density polyethylene (LDPE) film acts as a gas barrier, which is necessary for packaging

such things as chicken, which would quickly spoil if exposed to oxygen. Polyvinyl chloride

(PVC) film, on the other hand, is gas permeable and necessary for packaging such things as

red meat, which require a small amount of oxygen inside the package in order to keep it

fresh.

Plastic film also can be clear or colored, printed or plain, single- or multilayered and

combined with other materials such as aluminum and paper. It can come in a variety of

thicknesses and degrees of opacity.

The material you use in your process material is a little tricky to think about.

Factors to weigh

• product protection and enhancement

• environmental impact of creating the wrapping material

• amount of material used in the process

• environmental impact of disposal of the material post-consumer or at intermediate point.

Overwrapping is again a more efficient way to wrap for several reasons.

• The kind of film it uses

• The amount of film it uses

The kind of film overwrapping uses:-

1. Petroleum-based Films

2. Bio-based Films

1. Petroleum-based-Films

Petroleum based films are the most common and usually the most inexpensive films used

for wrapping today. Most of these films require stabilizers in order to prevent them

degrading prematurely. Discussion about how to use stabilizers to permit degrading is

ongoing at this point.

Plastics have different properties. Here is an explanation of some of the different sources

from which film for wrapping is made, a description of their properties and some of the

applications in which they are commonly used.

Page 13: Packaging of Candies in Falxible Pouches

13

Polypropylene film is the most commonly used film in overwrapping and flow

wrapping. Polyethylene film is the most commonly used film in shrink-wrapping. Pound

for pound, polypropylene is less expensive than polyethylene. And worse yet, more

polyethylene film is used because it is first trimmed to get rid of the excess and then

shrunk 20-25% to conform to the package it wraps.

Polypropylene film does not shrink. It is designed to wrap around a package with

overlaps between 1/4 and 3/4 inches. This overlap is enough to ensure a seal while

minimizing film and energy consumption. It provides a nice gift-wrapped look to the

package while being efficient in film use and energy consumption.

Over wrappers can wrap using non-petroleum based materials such as biodegradable,

paper or waxed paper. That overwrapping provides a safe and attractive wrap is our

customer’s bonus.

Low Density Polyethylene LDPE/LLDPE These two polyethylene resins often are

talked about as if they are one because they have similar properties—both have good

clarity, are good moisture barriers and fair gas barriers, can be heat sealed and are strong

and highly flexible. They both are also used in similar applications, including but not

limited to stretch wrap and shrink wrap.

High Density Polyethylene HDPE Because it is part of the polyethylene family, HDPE

film is found in many of the same applications as LDPE and LLDPE. In recent years, it

has made inroads into the film market mostly because of its ability to allow manufacturers

to use less material (i.e., source reduction) to make a package that can deliver an equal

amount of product. HDPE also tends to be stiffer than other polyethylene films, which is

an important characteristic for packages that need to maintain their shape. In addition,

HDPE is strong and puncture resistant, has good moisture barrier properties and is

resistant to grease and oils.

Polypropylene PP film comes from a resin that has a high melting point, which makes it

desirable in packages that require sterilization at high temperatures. PP film commonly is

used to package such things as cigarettes, candy, snack foods, bakery products, cheese

and sanitary goods. Because PP has only average gas barrier properties, it often is used in

combination with such things as a PVC coating or acrylic, which provide additional

barrier properties.

BOPP film (Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene) film in has become one of the most

popular, high growth films in the world market. BOPP film is available in a wide range of

film variations targeting the packaging, pressure sensitive tape, label, stationery,

metallizing and decorative markets.

Polyvinyl Chloride PVC film can be found in stretch wrap for industrial and pallet wrap

(although in very small amounts), shrink wrap (again in very small amounts), some bags

and liners, adhesive tape, labels, blood bags and I.V. bags. It also is used exclusively to

package fresh red meats. That is because it is semi-permeable, which means that just

enough oxygen can pass through in much smaller quantities that impart special properties

to a package.

2. Bio-based Films

These films come from a variety and growing list of sources. A non-exhaustive list

follows. It is important to keep in mind that the source does not dictate the molecular

structure. A bio-based film is not necessarily biodegradable, although it may come from a

renewable source. Similarly a petroleum-based film can be biodegradable but does not

come from a currently renewable source. Here we discuss corn, sugar and wood based

plastics. New bio-plastics from other materials are coming to market.

Polylactic Acid Film (PLA) film is currently made from corn or sugar cane. While it is

more commonly used as a substituted for PE, it can also be used as a substitute for BOPP.

This film can be industrially composted.

Cellulose films are customarily made from wood. Think of them as clear paper.

Cellophane is the original cellulose based film. They make an excellent substitute for

polypropylene film. If properly treated, moisture should not be an issue and the

biodegradability is preserved. In fact, one thing that can set these films apart is their

potential for home composting.

Paper wrapped packages typically run from 20-60 per minute. Two types of gift paper

may be used, treated gift paper or plain gift paper.

On treated paper, a small layer of adhesive is pre-applied to the paper during the

conversion process. During the wrap process, heaters activate and begin to set the

glue. Compression belts are used to hold the flaps in place until sealed.

Other makers choose to use standard gift paper which requires that hot or cold melt glue

be integrated into the wrapping equipment

Waxed paper is most commonly used for frozen foods. While waxed paper requires of

the same circumstances as untreated paper, it is capable of running at higher speeds

provided it is supported appropriately.

Foil is the most fragile of wrapping materials and has a memory that makes it

challenging.

What Is Overwrapping?

6.0 What is Overwrapping?

Overwrapping is a process in which a box-shaped carton, tray, bundle, etc. is wrapped and

sealed. The only requirement for the package shape is that it have flat sides to be sealed. It is

also called diamond-fold wrapping, tuck-and-fold wrapping, gift-box wrapping, cigarette

wrapping and bundle wrapping. Tear tape is often used as an easy-open feature.

The end result looks like a “gift wrap,” with one long seam located either on the bottom or

side of the package and each end of the package neatly “tucked, folded and sealed.” The first

tuck-and-fold machines were designed in the 1920s by the original Package Machinery

Company.

You can use a variety of relatively stiff, single- or multi-ply web materials including clear,

printed and/or metallized polypropylene (PP), cellophane, paper, glassine, waxed paper,

aluminum foil or metallized paper/BOPP (biaxially oriented polypropylene). You cannot

overwrap with soft [polyethylene-based] films. Such films are too soft and have too much

“give” to be used in overwrapping.

While you need heat to seal the film or set the glue (with paper), your heat needs are limited

to the spots needing sealing. Overwrapping machines are built in elevator, in-line, turret or

rotary styles.

Figure6.0.1:- Overwrapped Product

Examples of overwrapped products include cigarettes, Easter “PEEPS” candies,

CDs/DVDs, frozen food cartons, cartons/boxes of tea.

7.0 What are chocolate wrapper and what not?

The definition is any wrapper covering chocolate bar, tablet, slab, egg or chocolate candy bar

(where chocolate creates important part of product - at least 30% - for example Kit Kat or

Mars bar) which contains any information about product and producer made of any material.

It can be from chocolate of ANY WEIGHT.

Figure7.0.1:- chocolate wrapper

Types of chocolate wrappers

From early times of manufacturing chocolate bars paper became most popular material for

chocolate wrappers. Under outer paper wrapper is always inner wrapper (foil) usually made

of aluminum or plastic? There are 3 main types of paper chocolate wrapper.

First type is strip of paper wrapped over the chocolate bar so it is usually easy to take off the

wrapper from chocolate. This wrapping method was more frequent in the past. It is used

mostly in USA, England, the Netherlands, and Estonia or in many Asian countries now.

Second type covers complete chocolate bar like an envelope. This envelope style of paper

wrapper is widely spread in most countries. It is sometimes necessary to open these wrappers

carefully and try not to tear them. For some chocolates is often used as a wrapping material

cardboard paper. Typical is for some filled chocolates especially those with liquid filling like

spirits, for chocolates with whole hazelnuts, for higher weights chocolates, portioned

chocolates like Schogetten, for luxury chocolates or for chocolate bars with unusual shape.

Also worldwide known chocolate bar Tolerance is covered by cardboard wrapper.

Except most frequented paper other wrapping materials like cellophane, metalized foils or

plastic foils became more and more popular from economic reasons. These wrappers are

often hard to open without damage that´s why some collector’s don´t collect them. Typical

use is for square chocolates, some cheaper chocolates or for chocolate candy bars like Mars.

German manufacturer of square chocolates Ritter used cellophane as a wrapping material till

1978, then paper wrapper combined with aluminum and since 1991 plastic foil wrapper

which is easy to open without damage what I can´t say about some similar wrappers from

other countries.

Tolerance wrapper Metalized foil wrapper

Among European makers of chocolate bars is more and more common to wrap the chocolates

in plastic foils. Almost all small bars and candy bars are now packed in plastic foil and also

some cheaper chocolates like 100g bars of Trumpf or Waldbaur in Germany or Lola

chocolates by Swiss Halba. Large chocolate manufacturers started to pack their chocolate

bars and slabs into plastic foils instead of classic paper wrappers in last ten years ( Cadbury

since about 2002, Kraft Foods (chocolates Milka, Alpen Gold, Karuna, Figaro, Marabou

since 2004-2007) and also Czech chocolate factory Nestlé (local chocolate brand Orion) since

autumn 2008.

Specific type of wrappers uses some Scandinavian companies - they combine paper with

inner metalized foil in one wrapper. This method is often used for packing chocolate pieces in

rolls. Some companies like Italian Delicia also use combination of plastic wrapper with inner

metalized foil.

7.1 Motives on chocolate wrappers

Most frequented motives are connected with chocolate and its composition: chocolate, milk,

cows in Alps, cocoa pods, cocoa seeds, nuts etc. There are also special wrappers made for

some occasions, children chocolates with motives like flowers, cars, planes, animals,

cartoons. You can find almost everything especially on private labels wrappers. Some

companies use own traditional colour of wrappers (Milka, Cadbury, and Orion) but most of

them use different colours of wrappers for each taste.

This type of POP is made from thin recycled solid white lined chipboard. The stronger POP’s

are made from thin corrugated card called E flute (90 flutes per linear foot) and have a

mottled white outsider liner for printing on. These POP’s are all die-cut nets that flat pack

when the product is not inside. They are printed with the off-set lithography process. A UV or

spirit varnish is added to give a glossy finish. Depending on quantity required, they are either

batch or mass produced. A bar code is not required as they are printed on the individual

wrappers.

9.0 Confectionery/Candy

Application Challenges

Confectionery is manufactured in many shapes and sizes. The challenge is in selecting the

right packaging film for the application.

A film that provides a tight twist on individual candies without causing static during

wrapping is essential for high speed machines.

A glossy transparent film for box overwrap that is able to protect its contents while enhancing

consumer appeal.

A flexible film that can be used as a monoweb for bags or laminated to other materials for

strength.

Nature Flex films are suitable for easy to open sweet bags, pouches, individually wrapped

sugar candies or to protectively overwrap chocolates.

Why Use Nature Flex Films for Confectionery?

Excellent natural dead-fold

Excellent barrier to water vapour, gases and aroma

Controlled slip and naturally anti-static for enhanced machinability

A range of moisture barriers to suit product requirements

High level of stability and durability

10.0 New report details global flex-pack papers market to 2017

The global flexible-packaging market is made up of a variety of materials, about half of

which are paper-based. The flexible packaging papers market was worth $66 billion in 2011,

consuming some 28 million metric tons of papers. Smithers Pira forecasts an average growth

of 5% annually from 2012 to 2017, to reach a value of $87 billion, using over 37 million

metric tons of material.

“The Future of Flexible Packaging Papers” assesses the key drivers and trends influencing

the market, and global markets are quantified and segmented according to end use, material

type and geographic region.
