Japan: Pattruss resealable bag nominated for FLIA 2012

Norio Goto saw the need for improving shelf-life for fruit and vegetables and started to make his own bag and while he was testing a prototype, the bag was torn from the different point accidentally. The Pattruss was born.



Tetrahedral shape was used in the past because its truss structure is strong
against crushing. With the original opening style of Pattruss, this simple bag provides innovative usefulness. After protecting contents all the way to the point of
consumption, the bag itself changed its shape to the boat and functioning as a dish
when it gets torn from the center of one edge. This boat shaped opening allows easy pick-up and quick eating without preparing dishes.



Pattruss is environmentally friendly due to its reducing garbage and saving fuel, because the Pattruss bag uses thin film, which has lighter weight than hard packaging. Pattruss is comparable to hard packages in terms of protecting content, but having a lighter weight, is material saving, space saving and cost saving. Also, the freshness of the produce lasts longer due to the level of oxygen.

In October 2010, Pattruss Inc. was founded, inheriting the bag business from Mitosaien Inc and started to sell Pattruss all over the world.

Pattruss Z (Zed) is a tetrahedral bag with zipper and extra large size. The bag is designed especially for salads. It has been nominated for the Fruit Logistica Innovation Award 2012.

Pattruss Z has all the features of Pattruss, long-lasting freshness of leaf
vegetables, resource-saving and lower cost but also has resealable and reusable
features with its zipper. Pattruss Z is good for consumers who have a life-style the involves shopping once per week by car -buying large quantities and consuming day-by-day.

The re-sealable bag is available in various sizes.
