Insektenbefall von Lebensmittelverpackungen. Untersuchungen marktgängiger Verpackungen für Lebensmittel auf Widerstandsfähigkeit gegen Insekteninvasion

Even in moderate climate zones insects cause losses of food. All types of packages made of cardboard, paper, plastics and aluminium are involved. In a large measure insects like beatles, moths and mites invade without restraint through untight spots on packages. The aspect of economic, non-pollutting and insect-proof food packages was not taken into account so far by the food and packaging industry. Testing of food packages which are applied in masses revealed that at present machine-made and machine closed bags are generally more insect-proof than folding cartons. But there are clear differences in package tightness subject to the applied package material
