Environmental Conditions Causing Change of Colour on the Packaging of Products

Abstract

The primary task of the packaging of goods is to preserve the quality of goods. During distribution it is unavoidable that the products are exposed to harmful environmental effects but the intensity of these effects may be different. We are able to avoid applying the time-consuming and expensive product analyzing methods if we can estimate the quality of the product by examining the quality of its packaging. Our study wants to find out whether we can select those products in which quality deterioration processes might have started due to external environmental effects via the examination of the colour change of the packaging material.
