• Packaging Innovations
• For civilizations grew, the need to contain, protect, and
transport food supplies became critical. Primitive man
used vessels and containers made of natural materials
in form of tree leaves, bamboo, lotus leaves, palm
leaves, gourds, coconut shells, shells and animal skin.
• Later on, as minerals, ores and chemicals were
discovered, metals and pottery were developed leading
to use of new materials including fabrics, ceramics,
metals, lacquerware, wood ware, jade ware, and
certain types of paper. Steam engines marked the
beginning of Industrial Revolution.
