Description

PACKAGE FOR THE PROTECTION OF CONSUMER GOODS FROM ARTIFICIAL ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION, USE AND

MANUFACTURE OF SAID PACKAGING

The present invention relates to the field of protecting the quality of food. More particularly, the present invention relates to packaging for the protection of consumer goods against repeated exposure to artificial electromagnetic radiation such as radio frequency waves emitted for example by wireless data exchange devices or optical radiation emitted by example by barcode scanners. The invention also relates to a method for manufacturing the packaging, on the one hand, and to the use of said packaging, on the other hand.

Prior art!

Food, cosmetics or medicines are consumer goods which are generally capable of influencing the physiological functions of the people who consume them. However, these consumer goods can undergo, before being consumed, alterations reducing their capacity to positively influence the physiological functions of the people who consume them (Zhong Han et al. Effects of electric fields and electromagnetic wave on food protein structure and functionality: A review. Trends in Food Science & Technology, Volume 75, 2018, Pages 1 -9, ISSN 0924-2244).

These alterations can in particular be caused by exposure to artificial electromagnetic radiation. For example, barcode scanners project artificial optical radiation that scans the entire product, including the barcode, using a light beam. This artificial radiation is reflected by the barcode, passes through an optical device making it possible to receive the reflected light, before being transformed by a sensor into an electrical signal which will be processed electronically, then digitally, to recognize the code. -bar and associate it with a specific product.

[0004] Throughout the manufacturing, delivery, shelving and checkout processes, the products can be scanned up to tens of times. In addition, these products can be exposed to more or less powerful radiofrequency waves and are therefore highly exposed to artificial electromagnetic radiation. However, these artificial radiations have deleterious effects on products, with a degradation of the nutritional or even functional qualities of products (Zhong Han, et al. Effects of electric fields and electromagnetic wave on food protein structure and functionality: A review. Trends in Food Science & Technology, 2018, 75: 1-9, ISSN 0924-2244). These degradations are particularly obvious for biological food, therapeutic or cosmetic products with beneficial properties for the organism.

However, these alterations can be difficult to highlight because they will not affect the chemical composition of the product but on its structure. Furthermore, the mere comparison of the chemical composition of a product is not sufficient to explain its potential impact on human and animal health (Matt et al. Quality of Organic vs. Conventional Food and Effects on Health, Report. Estonian University of Life Sciences, September 201 1).

Biocrystallization ("biocrystallization" in English terminology) is a validated and standardized method (Huber et al., Standardization and Validation of the Visual Evaluation of Biocrystallizations. Biological Agriculture and Horticulture, 2010, 27: 25 ^ 10) can be applied for the evaluation of food quality. It consists in subjecting a sample to be analyzed to a crystallization process, for example in the presence of copper chloride, then to evaluating the biocrystallograms obtained, characteristic of each sample examined. Biocrystallograms can be assessed on the basis of different standardized morphological characteristics (Busscher et al., Standardization of the biocrystallization method for carrot samples. Biological Agriculture and Horticulture, 2010, 27: 1-23) and automatically with implementation appropriate statistical processing or supervised learning (Unluturk et al. The discrimination of raw and UHT milk samples contaminated with penicillin G and ampicillin using image Processing neural network and biocrystallization methods. Journal of Food Composition and Analysis, 2013, 32: 12- 19).

Biocrystallization makes it possible to identify alterations which are not detectable by conventional analysis methods such as assays or characterizations of chemical composition. Thus, it was possible by biocrystallization to differentiate fresh baby food from these same baby food having been frozen and in addition, biocrystallization made it possible to distinguish two different cooking processes (Seidel et al. Quality assessment of baby food made of different pre-processed organic raw materials under industrial Processing conditions. J. Food Soi. Technol., 2015, 52 (2): 803-812). In addition, the use of biocrystallization assisted by a supervised learning method, neural network type, has been used with performances between 86% and 100% to differentiate raw milks and UHT milks (Ultra-High Temperature in English terminology) contaminated or not by antibiotics (Unluturk et al. The discrimination of raw and UHT milk samples contaminated with penicillin G and ampicillin using image Processing neural network and biocrystallization methods. Journal of Food Composition and Analysis, 2013, 32: 12-19).

In order to reduce the negative effects of artificial electromagnetic radiation on products, it is certainly possible to package sensitive products in thick packaging, which absorb artificial electromagnetic radiation, or in reflective packaging. However, these solutions significantly increase the price of packaging, limit the choice of possible packaging and have a negative impact on the environment.

To protect against the negative effects of radiation on products, especially cosmetics, systems are known which use specific containers, which contain the product in its packaging, thereby indirectly protecting it from the harmful effects of radiation on products ( WO9503726). However, this is not an advantageous solution, which requires an additional container for the product, which only adds an overpack to the product and, moreover, does not make it possible to respond to the same technical problem as the present invention, since the product must be removed from the container to be flashed.

It is also known from the prior art of protective films which are affixed to the containers / packaging of the products (W02013191390). In addition, the prior art mentions compounds capable of protecting organic materials against light (JP2007534781). However, the addition of these compounds to the products to be protected would irreparably alter their qualities.

It is also known from the prior art according to document WO2007 / 137249 an internal coating comprising an absorbent material and several layers of plastic. This solution is on the one hand not very economic, the use of several layers increasing the price of the packaging but also the production costs and on the other hand not very ecological, the plurality of layers being plastic, which involves an effect harmful to the environment.

Another solution of the prior art disclosed in document EP1541488 consists of a printed layer blocking light and consisting of several inks of chromatic colors and of a plurality of layers comprising an intermediate layer and a sealing layer. Again, this solution significantly increases the price of packaging, the production price and limits the choice of possible packaging while having a negative impact on the environment. In addition, the use of a plurality of ink leads to a degradation of the organoleptic qualities of the product by migration of the gases.

Thus, none of the existing systems makes it possible to provide a satisfactory solution to the problem encountered. Therefore, there is a need for a new form of protection of products against the harmful effects of artificial electromagnetic radiation.

rTechnical problem!

The invention therefore aims to remedy the drawbacks of the prior art. In particular, the invention aims to provide packaging intended to protect a consumer good from artificial electromagnetic radiation which is inexpensive and space-saving and which can be adapted to a wide variety of consumer goods.

The invention further aims to propose the use of such packaging and its simple and inexpensive manufacture.

f Brief description of the invention]

To this end, the invention relates to a packaging intended to protect a consumer good, comprising on all or part of its internal surface a coating, in which the coating is formed by the deposition of one or more inks according to a repeated pattern, preferably said repeated pattern comprising a hexagon, ensuring the protection of the consumer good against artificial electromagnetic radiation.

As will be shown in the examples, the presence of such a repeated pattern on the internal face makes it possible to protect consumer goods from artificial electromagnetic radiation and in particular to maintain intact their functional properties such as for example measured by biocrystallization. The presence of this coating limits the penetration of waves and prevents their interaction with consumer goods. According to other optional characteristics of the packaging:

- the pattern is repeated so as to be present at least a hundred times on said whole or part of the inner surface of the packaging. In fact, the inventors have correlated an improvement in the radiation protection performance with an increase in the repetition of the pattern.

- the repeated pattern forms an autostereogram. The presence of an autostereogram is associated with the presence of the same pattern repeated many times. In addition, an autostereogram shows nuances of color, saturation or hue in the patterns which can influence the passage of artificial electromagnetic radiation.

- the coating is formed by printing with one or more inks on all or part of the internal surface of the packaging. Printing, for example in offset, is one of the most suitable methods for manufacturing this type of packaging with coating.

- The coating includes repeated patterns arranged in parallel rows, preferably with position shifts of these repeated patterns between two adjacent rows. As presented in the examples, the inventors have correlated this feature with improved protection.

each repeated motif comprises at least one polygon, preferably a hexagon. Indeed, the most efficient patterns include such a shape.

the repeated pattern covers more than 10%, preferably more than 20% more preferably more than 50% of the interior surface of the packaging, even more preferably at least 80%. The more the pattern is present on the internal surface, the greater the protection.

- the consumer good is a product of biological origin, in particular a product of biological origin sensitive to artificial electromagnetic radiation.

- It is formed from one or more flank (s) of folded cardboard (s). This allows easy manufacturing. The invention further relates to the use of a packaging according to the invention to protect the consumer good from degradation caused by artificial electromagnetic radiation. The consumer good is preferably a food, a cosmetic, a medicine or a medical device.

The invention further relates to a method of manufacturing a package comprising on all or part of its internal surface a coating according to the invention, characterized in that it comprises:

- depositing one or more inks on all or part of the surface of a sidewall in a repeated pattern, and

- the drying of one or more inks, and

- folding the side so as to form the packaging.

In the following description, the term "artificial electromagnetic radiation" means all electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength between a few micrometers and a few meters not being of natural origin (eg not emitted by the sun, minerals or a living organism). Electromagnetic radiation notably includes radio frequency waves emitted for example by wireless data exchange devices such as data exchange according to GSM or Wifi standards. They also include optical radiation such as ultraviolet, visible and infrared radiation. Preferably, artificial optical radiation is optical radiation emitted by product identification scanners, in particular via the analysis of bar codes or flash codes.

The term "coating" means one or more surface layers which can modify the surface properties of an object. A "coating" can be continuous, then completely covering a surface or discontinuous, it does not completely cover the surface.

In the following description, the same references are used to designate the same elements.

Some consumer goods can be damaged by repeated exposure to artificial electromagnetic radiation such as artificial optical radiation generated by barcode scanners. The inventors have shown that this exposure can have an impact on the quality or even the functionality of the consumer good as measured by the biocrystallization method. This impact can also have repercussions on the stability over time of the consumer good, on its taste with a modification of the organoleptic properties and tolerance of the consumer to the consumer good.

To limit this damage, the inventors have developed packaging making it possible to protect from artificial electromagnetic radiation, the consumer goods which they contain. To give protective capacity to consumer goods packaging (eg food or cosmetic products), and to make these packaging protective, one solution consists in including, on their internal surface, a layer of ink according to a determined arrangement forming a coating. The present invention therefore aims to provide packaging for the protection of products, in particular food or cosmetics, this protection being economical and easy to implement.

Figure 1 shows a package according to an embodiment of the invention. The packaging 100, here forms a parallelepiped having an internal surface 10 and an external surface 20. In particular, all or part of the internal surface 10 of the packaging 100 has a coating 11 formed by the deposition of an ink on the internal surface of the packaging in a repeated pattern 12. The packaging, thus coated, protects the consumer good against artificial electromagnetic radiation.

Artificial electromagnetic radiation is in particular artificial optical radiation emitted by bar code readers. These devices are essentially based on an illumination during which the light is reflected by the light areas and absorbed by the black areas of the barcode. Many barcode readers are based on visible semiconductor lasers allowing illumination at a wavelength between 600 nm and 650 nm.

Without being bound by theory, the repeated pattern 12 makes it possible to absorb at least part of the radiation, to block part of the radiation or to filter certain wavelengths coming from the illumination source and thus makes it possible to remove negative consequences on the properties of consumer goods.

Thus, the invention relates to a packaging 100 intended to protect a consumer good. The consumer product concerned is preferably a product for human or animal consumption. Indeed, degradations in the functionality of these goods can have an impact on women and men as well as on animals. In addition, the consumer good is preferably a product to be used by the skin or orally.

Preferably, the consumer good is, or includes, a product of biological origin and in particular a product of biological origin photosensitive and even more particularly sensitive to artificial electromagnetic radiation. Such products of biological origin can for example be:

- Foods such as honey and / or seeds or food supplements such as compositions comprising pollen, and / or essential oils;

- cosmetic products such as compositions comprising propolis extracts, venom elixir and / or essential oils; - medical devices or medicines such as homeopathic medicines, healing agents or nasal sprays.

More preferably, the product of biological origin is selected from: propolis, pollen or the venom elixir.

Pattern 12 repeated

Since the repeated pattern 12 makes it possible to absorb or block part of the illumination or possibly to filter certain wavelengths coming from the illumination source, then the shape and the dimensions of the patterns have a importance.

The pattern 12 which is repeated is more particularly a geometric pattern and preferably comprises at least one polygon and more preferably an assembly of polygons. More preferably, the pattern 12 comprises a hexagon or an assembly of quadrilaterals. Thus, in particular, the repetition of the pattern 12 makes it possible to form an assembly of hexagons or quadrilaterals giving the impression of cubes in three dimensions. For example, the coating 1 1 forms a mesh, preferably a honeycomb type mesh.

The pattern 12 which is repeated can advantageously have a surface of between 0.1 cm ² and 20 cm ² . Preferably, it has an area of between 0.1 cm ² and 2 cm ² . More preferably, it has an area of between 0.1 cm ² and 0.5 cm ² .

Figure 2 shows an example of pattern 12 for the protection of consumer goods. Here, the pattern 12 has a hexagon forming its outline or is formed by an assembly of quadrilaterals.

Advantageously, the pattern 12 is repeated so as to be present at least fifty times, preferably at least a hundred times over all or part of the interior surface of the packaging.

The repeated pattern 12 covers more than 10%, preferably more than 20%, more preferably more than 50% of the interior surface of the packaging, even more preferably at least 80%.

In particular, the coating 1 1 comprises repeating patterns 12 arranged in rows 13 parallel, preferably with position offsets D of these repeating patterns between two adjacent rows. For example, the repeating patterns 12 of Figures 3B and 3C form parallel rows but there is no offset in position of these repeated patterns between two adjacent rows. On the contrary, on the repeating patterns 12 illustrated in FIGS. 3A and 3D, the repeating patterns 12 are arranged in rows 13 parallel and have position offsets D of these repeating patterns between two adjacent rows. Preferably, the offset D is between 0.5 mm and 1 cm, more preferably between 1 mm and 5 mm. In addition, the repeated pattern 12 can have line thicknesses between 0.05 mm and 2 mm.

Advantageously, the repeated pattern 12 forms an autostereogram. That is, a stereogram made up of a single image which gives the illusion of a three-dimensional scene from a two-dimensional image. In order to perceive three-dimensional shapes using autostereograms, the brain must make an ocular effort to converge and focus dissociated from accommodation.

Preferably, the repeated pattern 12 forms a coating as shown in Figure 3C. More preferably, the repeated pattern 12 forms a coating as illustrated in FIG. 3D. Even more preferably, the repeated pattern 12 forms a coating as illustrated in FIG. 3A.

The coating 1 1 can be formed by printing with one or more inks on the internal surface of the package 100.

The inks can be tinted with the same color or with different colors. They may include suitable pigments, dyes or mat agents or suitable combinations of pigments, dyes and mat agents. For example, one or more inks may include organic pigments.

Preferably, the inks used do not contain metallic pigment.

As will be detailed below, the coating 1 1 can be formed by applying one or more of the inks to all or part of the internal surface of the packaging in any suitable manner. For example, one or more inks can be applied by inkjet printing, intaglio printing, gravure printing, flexography, lithographic printing, offset printing or screen printing and preferably offset printing.

The person skilled in the art will be able to select one or more ink formulations making it possible to implement the invention. It may for example use mineral dyes (eg carbon black, Prussian blue, chrome yellow) or organic dyes (eg cyanines, phthalocyanines, phycobilins, pterinics). Throughout the description, the patterns 12 are shown in black on a white background. However, the patterns can be colored or in a shade of gray on a white background or on colored backgrounds.

Thus, the printing can be monochrome or full color, in the form of a flat or in the form of a raster image. Printing can be done in three colors, better in four colors, which can facilitate the production of a repeated pattern 12 with variations in color, saturation, hue and / or clarity.

In the case of monochrome printing, that is to say a printing carried out with a single ink, the saturation of the color may depend on the density of the printing on the printed surface, a density higher generally leading to higher saturation.

In the case of polychrome printing, several inks are applied and generally produce a resulting color, perceived by the observer. By varying the size of the ink dots and / or their distribution, it is possible to modify the resulting color in hue, saturation and clarity, by subtractive color synthesis in the areas of overlap of the basic colors making it possible to protect the product. Indeed, pigments generally make it possible to absorb or reflect radiation.

The packaging

The packaging concerned by the present invention can be very diverse and essentially constitutes a support for the coating 1 1.

Thus, the packaging can take any shape, flat or not, dimensions and capacities.

The packaging can for example take the form of sheets, boxes, cases, cases, boxes, bottles, rigid or semi-rigid as well as their parts and components such as lids or caps.

In this context, the repeating patterns 12 may relate to the entire internal surface of the package 100 or to a component of the packaging 100 or a fraction of this internal surface.

Whatever the shape of the packaging, the coating 1 1 can be adapted to cover the content to be protected. Thus, the consumer good will be protected from artificial electromagnetic radiation, for example of a wavelength included between a few micrometers and a few meters which are not of natural origin, and more particularly artificial optical radiation whose maximum wavelength is between 550 nm and 700 nm corresponding to the radiation emitted by code identification devices - bars.

The package can be formed from any suitable material, including, but not limited to, paper, cardboard, plastic, or combinations thereof. Thus, the packaging can also take the form of a flexible printed sheet which can be used to package the product to be protected. Preferably, the packaging is formed from one or more cutouts of folded cardboard. Preferably, the carton has a weight of between about 20 grams per square meter and about 350 grams per square meter. Preferably, a grammage of between 100 grams per square meter and 250 grams per square meter.

The packaging according to the invention may take the form of a rectangular parallelepiped, with longitudinal edges at right angles. In particular, the packaging according to the invention can be formed from one or more folded and glued sides of cardboard.

Preferably, the packaging 100 according to the invention may have a height between approximately 60 mm and approximately 300 mm, preferably a height between approximately 70 mm and approximately 200 mm, in which the height is measured from from the upper wall to the lower wall of the package.

The packaging can traditionally include a bar code on its external surface. In this case, the repeated pattern 12 is placed on the internal surface of the packaging at least at the barcode. Thus, it is best positioned to protect consumer goods. In addition, the packaging may include images, text, consumer information or other data on its external surface.

In addition, the packaging may be covered with an outer envelope taking the form of a transparent polymer film, for example, high or low density polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinylidene chloride, a film of cellulose, or combinations thereof.

According to another aspect, the invention also relates to the use of a packaging according to the invention to protect the consumer good from degradation caused by artificial electromagnetic radiation. According to another aspect, the invention can relate to the combination of the packaging according to the invention and a consumer good.

In another aspect, the invention also relates to a method 200 for manufacturing a package comprising on all or part of its internal surface 10 a coating 1 1 according to the invention. Such a method, illustrated in FIG. 6, can in particular include the following steps:

the deposition 210 of one or more inks on all or part of the surface of a sidewall in a repeated pattern 12, and

drying 220 of the one or more inks, and

- folding 230 of the side so as to form the packaging.

The design of the package itself does not need to be changed substantially to take into account the addition of the internal coating. Thus, the coating 1 1 can therefore be easily incorporated into packaged containers for consumer goods, without the need for a major modification of the devices, techniques and blanks of containers.

The inventors have discovered a degradation of consumer goods, in particular products of biological origin, following exposure to artificial electromagnetic radiation.

For this they used the biocrystallization method as well as the electrophotonics method described below.

For biocrystallization, a copper chloride solution (e.g. 99%) is mixed, for example in a dish, with the product to be analyzed diluted or not in distilled water. The cup is then placed in an oven at a temperature of 28 ° C. and a humidity of 78% for 12 to 14 hours. The reaction of the two compounds will create needles in the cup: the biocrystallogram.

Typically, the needle bundle is deployed from the center of the cup and diffuses towards the edges. Since all the added products modify the biocrystallization it is possible to deduce the impact of certain treatments undergone by the products. In particular, these are the needles which are studied in particular their arrangement, their shape, their size in order to deduce therefrom the properties of the product to be analyzed. Electrophotonics is based on reading the crown effect, in particular in the Ultraviolet spectrum. The corona effect is an electric discharge caused by the ionization of the medium surrounding a conductor. This discharge occurs when the electrical potential exceeds a critical value without the conditions allowing the formation of an arc. An avalanche of electrons then occurs, an avalanche capable of giving global information on the propagation medium and in particular on the surface properties.

The electrophotonics method used here has already been used to study the effect of pesticides on strawberry leaves or the biocompatibility of drugs or cosmetics (Vieilledent et al. BioEM2014, CapeTown, Jun 8-12, 2014 ). In particular, to ensure the best collection conditions, all the samples were diluted, in the same proportions, in demineralized water and then left to stand. Before each capture and for each of them, a last light mixing was carried out. The captures were carried out under controlled conditions of temperature (20.7 ° C ± 1 ° C) and Hygrometry (54% Rh ± 5%) and under radiation such that T = 1 1 kV and F = 1 10 Hz. The energy value is based on a measurement of the gray level of each pixel (unit of measurement commonly used in photonics) then on its conversion into energy (Joule) on the basis of the energy value of a photon.

11 Study of the impact of artificial electromagnetic radiation on the bee venom elixir

The elixir of bee venom was characterized by biocrystallization before (sample C1, FIG. 4A), after its exposure to unprotected artificial optical radiation (sample C2, FIG. 4B) or after its exposure to radiation. artificial optics in the presence of a protective film of metallized polyethylene terephthalate (sample C3). These samples C1 to C3 are comparative samples and are not part of the invention.

The inventors then characterized, by biocrystallization, the protection conferred by the coatings developed:

protection 1 (sample A1) corresponds to a coating comprising a repeated pattern according to FIG. 3A;

protection 2 (sample A2) corresponds to a coating comprising a pattern repeated according to FIG. 3B; protection 3 (sample A3) corresponds to a coating comprising a pattern repeated according to FIG. 3C;

protection 4 (sample A4) corresponds to a coating comprising a pattern repeated according to FIG. 3D;

The biocrystallization results are reported in Table 1 and have been detailed only for samples C1, C2 and A3. For all the samples presented, they were the subject of the establishment of a scale of values as follows: 1. severely degraded sample, 2. degraded sample, 3. sample with average performance, 4. sample presenting good performance, 5. Very powerful sample.

Table 1

1.1. Summary of the analysis by biocrystallization of the sample C1 (Figure 4A):

Comments: Axis placed in the first third fairly low; Dense but integrated structure; Texture: very dense and very branched; Light intensity: flat and intense; The three fields are almost homogeneous in texture and structure; the peripheral field is linked to the other two; no inclusion; very few stains; The acid base ratio is very good; No flawed tendency; Absence of broken or thickened needle in the middle field; no pile of percolation; periphery consistent with the rest of the image although more rigid.

The concentration used is in agreement with the product, its functionality is by far the most efficient. Rare stains show that the heat process did not damage the product and that the production almost completely respected the original system because the stains do not inhibit the beams. The non-fusing image is dense and very branched; we also find the configuration of propolis. The acid base ratio focused on a well balanced acid pole is positive for the behavior of the product, which eliminates a malfunction of the water used for the production.

1.2. Summary of the analysis by biocrystallization of the sample C2 (Figure 4B):

Observations: axis placed in the first third; Very fine structure; Texture: short blurred and disparate; Light intensity: spread around the center; Two fields are almost homogeneous; the peripheral field is nonexistent; Presence of fine inclusions on the beams; The acid base ratio is very average; No flawed tendency; Presence of broken and thickened needles; Presence of percolation clusters on certain beams and at the edge;

The product appears to have been altered after its initial preparation since the original signatures are well expressed but they are no longer capable of giving birth to a coherent and clear peripheral field. It is unlikely that this will assist a failing organization.

1.3. Summary of the analysis by biocrystallization of the sample A3 (Figure 4C):

Comments: Place of the central axis: first third, fairly low and vertical; Integrated structure, without breaking; Type of texture: supple fine, very dense and above all very long; Acid base ratio: excellent; Gaseous fluid balance: integrated in depth: Brightness: good and spread out over the three fields; Exogenous overload: absence at the periphery; Rings: absence; Inclusions or sedimentation: absence; Spots: fine but numerous presence; Breaks: absence; Transverse shape: absence on the fabric; Felts: absence; Dendritic needles: Absence; Percolation cluster: small normal presence.

In the branching of the outer beams one could almost speak of perfection. The product is not altered and the image confirms a high richness. The acid base ratio is excellent which confirms the quality and properties of this product. These results show that the packaging according to the invention makes it possible to protect a consumer good, in this case an elixir of bee venom, from artificial electromagnetic radiation.

21 Study of the Impact of Artificial Electromagnetic Radiation on Royal Jelly Royal jelly was characterized by electrophotonics before (sample C4, FIG. 5A), after its exposure to unprotected artificial optical radiation (sample C5, FIG. 5B) and after its exposure to artificial optical radiation in the presence of a protection (sample B1) corresponding to a coating comprising a pattern repeated according to FIG. 3C. The results of the electrophotonics are reported in Table 2.

Table 2

In addition, the visualization of the raw captures shows that the samples C4 (Fig. 5A) and B1 (Fig. 5C) have much more regular light halos than the light halo generated from the sample C5 (Fig. 5B) subjected to unprotected optical radiation. These results show that the packaging according to the invention makes it possible to protect the Jelly

Royal, artificial electromagnetic radiation. The presence of a repeated pattern on the internal face helps limit the penetration of waves and avoids their interactions with consumer goods. In addition, this packaging, based on printed cardboard, is inexpensive, compact and can be adapted to a wide variety of consumer goods.
