The competent choice and use of packaging materials is one of the most urgent tasks of the dairy industry, i.e. the feedstock; production technology and applied processing; organoleptic characteristics of the product; its weight; conditions, modes, and duration of transportation, storage, and sale. There is a long list of requirements for packaging materials in dairy industry. It includes high strength, resistance to wear, sufficient rigidity, an ability to weld; formation of strong and sealed seams; an aesthetic design that can attract the consumer; standard labeling, etc. The present article features the objectives and requirements of packaging; types of packaging; innovative technologies used for packaging whey protein concentrate and its products; modes and conditions of transportation and storage. Today, Russian packaging manufacturers have developed and mastered a wide range of packaging materials, closures, transport and consumer packaging of domestic raw materials; innovative packaging technologies for dairy products that take into account the sensory, structural, and mechanical characteristics of packaged products; the timing of implementation and storage. The main prospect is the development and production of packaging materials with an improved and predictable set of safety indicators and barrier level, e.g. multilayer and combined materials, such as polymer, based on innovative technological solutions.
