In this research, what megatrends will be derived for the future society and what new packaging technology will be required in the future were researched. Megatrends were researched in the five major categories, demographical, social, consumer, packaging related science and technology, governmental regulations and law trend. The six new packaging technologies were predicted, Active/Passive packaging technology, Intelligent Communication packaging technology, Nanotechnology packaging technology, Universal Convenience packaging technology, Environmental Friendly packaging technology, and Package Design technology.

Safety of packaging foods has increasingly been a significant global issue in recent years. This paper aims to present the broad information and perspectives on food packaging safety in Thailand. This paper compiles the use of different packaging materials, their safety characteristics, and the regulations in Thailand in accordance with the world regulations. In addition, it covers the opinion of various parties related to food packaging in Thailand. Some scientific based results coupled with the interviewing and questionnaire data from the previous and ongoing researches are discussed here. This paper summarizes the food packaging safety in Thailand today and proposed the trends tomorrow along with the future world requirements.

New concepts and solutions for the Flexible Food Packaging Design have been demanded to meet the various customer's needs and to compete with other worldwide products. Future-oriented designs beyond the basic functions of preserving and protecting contents can only meet the demands on product's reliability and consumer's satisfaction, specially considering environmental issues. This study is to describe the spiritual values of Korean Flexible Food Packaging Design on the basis of comprehensive understanding and to identify the process of changes and developments. The thesis also forecasts the future of Flexible Food Packaging. Little progress in the Flexible Food Packaging has been made because of the slow response, only to meet the increasing demand without any statistical or theoretical study. On the contrary, Korean Flexible Food Packaging Design has been developed by imitating foreigners' and made mistake of not creating original design reflecting a native traditional culture. This study researches the roles of food-classified flexible packaging to predict the near future trend of packaging industry classifying those into functional, visual, environmental and industrial aspects.

This paper is discussed on the prospects of packaging industry and technologies of Japan for comming 21th century. It is clear that packaging industry depends on living style and social mechanizms. A trends of numerical consumption, amounts of money and composisition of packaging materials are one of a measure of development of packaging industry. Total consumption of packaging materials in Japan of 1965, 1980 and 1993 were $6,344.5{\times}10^3,\;15,898.7{\times}10^3\;and\;21,603.3{\times}10^3$ tons respectively and also, shipping money of packaging materials were $7,073{\times}10^{11},\;45,421{\times}10^{11}\;and\;63,902{\times}10^{11}$ yen, respectively. It is estimated from these data that the packaging industry is also increasing in future according of GNP of country. Compositions of packaging materials from 1965 to 1993, however, are somewhat changing according to development of new materials or social conditions such as platics packaging or wooden packaging materials. Technical forcasts of packaging industry are shown from view point of national living style, energy and resorces as well as environment of world based on forcasting committee of pulp & paper in Japan, report of research committee for the 21th packaging in JPI and materials of symposium in Kanagawa University in this paper. As a my conclusion, many functional packaging materials shall be developed in the future and accordingly Life Cycle Assesment plays a important role of packaging fields. Furthermore, I am estimating in future the new cellulosic materials such as nonwood fiber resources instead of paper, board, wooden containers and a part of plastic packaging materials shall be developed. This paper is constructed by three items as follow:

Pharmaceuticals require more detailed packaging than do other sensitive products, such as foods, although there are several similarities in their requirements. Because the required action of a medication can be nullified by any deterioration in its active principles the protection required from its packaging is at least an order of magnitude greater than that needed by foods. Therefore, security and integrity of the package are more important and are controlled by licensing arrangements. To achieve levels of safety, reliability, and quality, pharmaceutical firms must identify and correct potential problems with packaging functions. Purpose of this study is to identify the present issues pharmaceutical packaging and to forecast their future for the development of pharmaceutical packaging.

Nanotechnology is playing an increasingly important role in the development on most areas of science and technology. Because of its potential of providing novel performance at the nanoscale, the nanotechnology can influence a wide range of applications such as information, energy, environment and biology, all essential for socioeconomic development in the near future. In the packaging industry, the main applications of nanotechnology are (1) to enhance durability, (2) improve gas and oxygen barriers of raw materials for films and packaging, (3) create new functional sensors, and (4) lengthen shelf life for the packaged food quality and will also help in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. Nanotechnology is growing in an international interactions which accelerate in science, education, and industrial R&D. Government, industries and the business sector in Korea have shown a strong ambition towards the development of nanotechnology for the future. Meanwhile, a strategic investment in packaging area is much smaller compared to supporting research and development (R&D) of various major research areas. This article were reviewed the status and trends of current packaging research and development activities using nanotechnology in Korea, USA, Japan, and other international nations.
