Although bio-based nanocomposite materials have various packaging options, the future is still evolving. At this point, multifunctional intelligent packaging will replace simple traditional packaging. As the use of synthetic plastics decreases, so does the demand for biodegradable packaging materials. Because of its potential to alleviate environmental issues associated with conventional packaging materials, biodegradable nanocoating for food packaging has seen a significant increase in interest in recent years. This innovative technology offers several perspectives and benefits, including improved food safety, extended shelf life, reduced waste, and enhanced sustainability. The objectives of this chapter are to highlight the latest advancements and research in the field of biodegradable nanocoating and its potential to revolutionize the food packaging industry as well as the advanced development teams about the benefits and potential applications of biodegradable nanocoating in food packaging.
