The primary types of probiotic packaging include bottles, jars, pouches, and other variations. Bottles, characterized by their narrow necks and openings, are typically crafted from materials such as glass or plastic. These containers are designed for the storage and dispensing of liquids or powders, and they come in various forms, including dry and liquid. Probiotic packaging in bottles finds applications across various sectors such as food and beverages, personal care, and other industries, and it is utilized by manufacturers, retailers, and other stakeholders in the supply chain.
