The work aims to review the research progress in smart packaging labels of information type. The domestic and foreign literatures related to the smart packaging labels in recent years were looked up and summarized, and the collation and analysis thereof were carried out. The research status and application of time/temperature display and RFID technology were highlighted, and the factors restricting their practical application and the possible solutions were analyzed. These research findings are important for promoting the informationization and intellectualization of packaging and advancing the broader application of smart labels of information type.
