Solution
I collected five different types of packaged products and studied the information printed on their labels.
| Product | Packaging Material | Information Given on the Label |
|---|---|---|
| Biscuit Packet | Plastic wrapper | Brand name, ingredients, net weight, MRP, manufacturing date, expiry date, nutrition facts and customer care details |
| Milk Packet | Plastic pouch | Brand name, quantity, type of milk, manufacturing/packing date, expiry date, MRP and storage instructions |
| Cooking Oil Bottle | Plastic bottle | Brand name, net quantity, ingredients, nutrition information, MRP, batch number, manufacturing date and best-before date |
| Tea Box | Cardboard box | Brand name, net weight, ingredients, MRP, manufacturing date, best-before date and company details |
| Toothpaste Tube | Laminated tube with carton | Brand name, ingredients, net weight, MRP, batch number, manufacturing date, expiry date and directions for use |
From this activity, I found that proper packaging not only protects the product but also provides important information to consumers. The label helps consumers know the price, quantity, quality, ingredients, manufacturing date, expiry date, usage instructions and details of the manufacturer before purchasing the product.
