Abstract Fully biodegradable packaging materials are demanded to resolve the issue of plastic pollution. However, fresh food storage performance is generally much lower than that plastics due their high permeability, microbial friendliness, and limited stretchability transparency. Here a material reported with based on an oil‐infused bacterial cellulose (OBC) porous film. The oil infusion significantly improved cellulose's food‐keeping by reducing its gas increasing transparency, enabling active release green vapor‐phase preservative molecules, while maintaining intrinsically degradability. Strawberries stored in container OBC lid at 23 °C after 5 days exhibited moldy rate 0%, contrast 100% those poly(ethylene). Enhanced also obtained tomatoes, pork, shrimp. film naturally degraded being buried wet soil 30 for 9 days, identical degradation cellulose. liquid seal strategy broadly applies different celluloses, providing general option developing cellulose‐based materials.

This review highlights recent innovations in food packaging, emphasizing the shift from conventional petroleum-based materials to bio-based alternatives and smart packaging systems. Bio-based materials, such as starch, cellulose, polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA), offer sustainable solutions due their biodegradability reduced environmental impact. These are positioned eco-friendly traditional plastics but face challenges related production costs scalability. Additionally, advancements technologies, including sensor indicator systems, provide real-time quality monitoring, enhancing safety reducing waste. Active incorporating natural antioxidants moisture control, extend product shelf life improve preservation. Furthermore, these biopolymers typically present a lower CO2 footprint, energy costs, water consumption during production, compared traditionally used synthetic plastics. The identifies challenges, regulatory barriers technological limitations, also outlines significant opportunities for future research innovation sector, aiming more efficient, safer, environmentally solutions.
