Cooperation between CPR System and Carton Pack for loose grape management

"We spent a lot of time studying and experimenting during the 2015 campaign," explains Lorenzo Soriani, sales and partner relationship manager for CPR System.

"The objective is to intercept all throw-away packaging (cardboard and wood in particular) used especially for loose grapes, to reduce costs (higher costs for throw-away packaging, higher costs for retailers and, therefore for final consumers) and environmental impact."

In addition, Soriani reports that "thanks to this cardboard, the colour of the product improves, making it more appealing."

"We have created a product, suitable for crates, that is easy to assemble (manually). It is also suitable to come into contact with food and complements the image of both the fruit and crates," adds Regina Leone from Carton Pack.

A special cardboard is used to line CPR crates - it is resistant to humidity and is printed with low-migration ink and impregnation varnish.

"We considered the internal dimension of crates, material and machinery sizing. Feedback was great so far and, in addition to table grapes, this solution can also be used for other fruit and/or vegetables."
