This kind of layered packaging is common in dairy products because it keeps the liquid inside while keeping bacteria outside. This additive is particularly suitable in packaging for ultra-high temperature (UHT) liquid dairy products, as these types of products have a longer shelf life, making them more susceptible to light-induced oxidation due to ambient storage conditions.
