Abstract

Today, food security is known as one of the dimensions of human security, so the lack of food security means the lack of security for that human society. In fact, food security is the cornerstone of a developed society and the first principle to maintain the health of society. In recent years, with the increase in population, on the one hand, the increase in demand for healthy food and on the other hand, the demand for food with high shelf life and good quality has become one of the challenges of the food industry. The first and most basic role of food packaging is to maintain the quality and safety of food and to reduce diseases transmitted through food, as well as to prevent product wastage and damage, and to protect the product from damage during transportation and storage. The important point is that the functional characteristics of the packaging should be suitable for use in the food industry. As a seasonal and perishable food product, food products cannot be directly available to the consumer for a long time. Therefore, the packaging industry plays an important role in ensuring the security, safety and health of communities, along with people's access to healthy food. In this article, the aim is to review the role of packaging on food safety, which has been addressed through a library review method.
