Well I guess it gets confused because of the extra `s` at the end of `Types of Packagings` name.  
CakePHP uses inflection to determine singular from plural names.

The name of the table could be improved in that fact that you use `packaging_types` instead of `types_of_packaging`

If you still want to keep that old name try to remove the `s` at the end of `types_of_packagings`

Because for me the singluar should be `Type of packaging` and the plural `Types of packaging`

But `PackagingType` and `PackagingTypes` is a bit more clearer I would say 😉
