Biopolymers, derived from renewable resources such as plants, animals, and microorganisms, are emerging as sustainable alternatives to traditional petroleum‐based polymers. The review examines the key characteristics of biopolymers, including their biodegradability, biocompatibility, and potential for carbon neutrality. These characteristics are crucial for determining their suitability for different packaging applications and their potential to reduce environmental pollution. While acknowledging the promise of biopolymers, the review also addresses challenges such as production costs, scalability issues, and performance limitations. Strategies to enhance biopolymer performance, including plasticization, blending, and nanomaterial reinforcement, are discussed. Interestingly, the review highlights the emerging field of active and intelligent packaging systems, which incorporate antimicrobial agents and sensors to extend shelf life and monitor food quality in real‐time. The review emphasizes the importance of life cycle assessments in evaluating the overall environmental impact of biopolymer‐based packaging compared to conventional alternatives. In conclusion, this review provides an overview of the current state of biopolymer research and identifies areas for future investigation. By synthesizing current knowledge, identifying challenges, and highlighting opportunities, this review contributes to ongoing efforts to create a more sustainable and circular packaging industry.

La aplicación de la impresión 4D en la industria alimentaria tiene como finalidad crear materiales inteligentes que responden a diversos estímulos físicos como temperatura, pH o luz. En esta área de investigación se ha propuesto el uso de materiales que por naturaleza son biodegradables, siendo así una opción de remplazo a materiales obtenidos de fuentes no renovables. En este artículo se introduce a los materiales sustentables generados con impresión 3D a partir de almidón, ácido poliláctico y policaprolactona modificados con diversos materiales y/o biomoléculas funcionales como el quitosano, la queratina, las antocianinas y nanomateriales de carbono para diversificar sus propiedades y/o dar una característica funcional como pueden ser la resistencia mecánica, la capacidad de barrera o una propiedad inteligente volviéndolo con esta última característica un material 4D. Estos principios han sido la base hacia una búsqueda para la generación de empaques personalizables para conservación de alimentos dinámicos y sostenibles. Es importante destacar el potencial que puede llegar a tener la impresión 4D para revolucionar la industria, proporcionando soluciones innovadoras y sostenibles para el envasado y procesamiento de alimentos, con beneficios adicionales en términos de reducción de merma, costos de almacenamiento además del uso de materiales naturales que favorecen la sustentabilidad.
