Abstract
The printing and packaging industry is the process for delivering products from the point of production to the end of utilization. It has several purposes, including protecting the product until it reaches its destination, maintaining the product’s value, and eliminating product waste. The industry achieved rapid growth and is expected to expand more and more in the coming years. These packages are usually designed to appeal to and captivate the manufacturer of the product or consumer through printing and branding . In other words, packaging is the process of protecting a product using different packaging formats, such as boxes, containers, bags, and many others. The packaging is responsible for more than a quarter of plastic worldwide; it increases the shelf life of these products and makes food shopping more suitable for billions of people.
