Abstract

The dairy industry plays a crucial role in global diets, with India as the leading milk producer and dairy exporter. The Indian dairy market is expected to grow significantly by 2030, underscoring the need to maintain high standards of food quality and safety. Dairy products like milk, cheese, and butter are prone to deterioration due to their complex composition and exposure to environmental factors, which require efficient packaging solutions. Effective packaging not only protects products from environmental influences but also retards food quality deterioration and supports sustainable food management by minimizing waste and preserving safety. Recent advancements in nanotechnology present promising solutions for the dairy industry. Nanomaterials, such as nanoparticles, nanoclay, and nanocomposites significantly enhance packaging performance by improving mechanical strength, thermal stability, and barrier properties, which extend shelf life and ensure product safety. The integration of nanotechnology-driven packaging solutions offers new possibilities for addressing challenges related to food quality, safety, and sustainability. This review explores the application of nanotechnology in dairy product packaging, focusing on the benefits over conventional materials and highlighting its potential to revolutionize the industry. By adopting these innovative packaging technologies, the dairy sector can meet the growing demands for high-quality, safe products while minimizing environmental impacts. As the dairy industry continues to expand, nanotechnology will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of food packaging and ensuring the delivery of superior dairy products to consumers worldwide.
