The US army promoted the idea of retort pouch packaging in 1950, and research continued until 1960. It was first introduced in Italy by the United States Army Natick R&D Command in coordination with Reynolds Metals Company, and Continental Flexible Packaging. In 1978, these companies were awarded the Food Technology Industrial Achievement Award for their invention. “A retort pouch is a laminated plastic packaging that is thin, lightweight, and flexible and is used to hold processed meals. It's a aluminum can and glass jar alternative that combines the lifetime of traditional food preservation techniques with the convenience and benefits of a thin, pliable container”.
