Pleased to showcase my recent work on Food Grade Packaging during my tenure at Food Tech Solution® (FTS) under the guidance of Ammar Rasheed Ahmed . This project delves into the critical role of packaging in safeguarding food quality while meeting rigorous safety and regulatory standards. We explored advanced packaging materials, including biodegradable options, and conducted comprehensive assessments on migration, shelf-life, and environmental impact. The goal? To innovate solutions that balance consumer safety with sustainability, ensuring packaging aligns with both industry demands and ecological responsibility. Pioneering the next generation of food packaging—one that embodies safety, efficiency, and sustainability. #FoodSafety #Sustainability #FoodGradePackaging #Innovation #QualityManagement #FoodTechLeadership #ProfessionalExcellence #FoodGradePackaging #SustainablePackaging #FoodTech #PackagingInnovation #FDACompliance #FSSAI #ActivePackaging #IntelligentPackaging #BiodegradablePackaging #FoodSafety #PackagingSolutions #EnvironmentalSustainability #PackagingMaterials #FoodIndustry #TechInPackaging #FoodPackaging #PackagingDesign #SustainabilityInPackaging #PackagingDevelopment

A couple of weeks ago, I attended the Innovation Forum's Future of Food and Beverage USA conference in Minneapolis. Here are my three takeaways... With the conference on the University of Minnesota campus, the final instruction of Norman Borlaug to "take it to the farmer" was ever-present in my mind to ensure the farmer is driving the conversation. I was grateful to see farmers not just in the room, but featured as speakers, raising their questions, and providing their invaluable perspectives. Companies set ambitious targets for 2030, which means six growing seasons for agriculture. With 2030 deadlines coming fast, the pressure is only going to intensify on upstream, and in food and beverage, upstream means the farmer. How do we drive for progress in six growing seasons without overregulating and overburdening our farmers? If we want to see meaningful progress, we must prioritize clear communication. Sometimes conversations can be stalled by the smallest things - like using different terms and phrases when discussing the same things. Eliminating those small barriers by speaking the same language can make a world of difference. Progress will only be made when various perspectives come together for honest conversations. We’ll have differences, but we can only find common ground when everyone comes to the table with a common language. #Farmers #Food #Beverage #Regenerative #SupplyChain 📸: Innovation Forum
