StePac to present packing products at 3 trade shows
International fruit, vegetable and herb growers, packers and traders have come to trust the Xtend MAP products, after experiencing dramatic shelf life extension and increased profitability. As a result of extensively longer shelf life, shippers have been able to almost eliminate air shipping of fresh produce and still provide top quality produce to supermarket shelves, even after extended land and sea shipments.
Gary Ward, StePac CTO emphasizes that using good sanitation and temperature control in addition to the packaging in Xtend packaging, can dramatically reduce the natural production of ethylene, the rate of fresh produce ripening and the ageing and decay of the packed products. By incorporating routine usage of Xtend modified atmosphere and modified humidity packaging, customers will obtain remarkable results of high quality, nutritional and fresh "as if just picked" produce throughout the supply chain.
It's no surprise then that this significant reduction of fresh produce waste by packing in Xtend MAP has encouraged customers to embrace this technology and incorporate it into their day-to-day operations.
Continually expanding into new markets and staying up-to-date with the latest technologies, StePac will be presenting its extensive range of fresh produce packaging products and post-harvest expertize in 3 upcoming trade shows in Europe and in the Americas.
Fruit Attraction (Oct 24-26) international trade show for the Fruit & Vegetable industry in Madrid Spain, at the annual gathering of the fresh produce industry - Fresh Summit - PMA (Oct 26-29) in Anaheim, California in the USA and in the Expo Agroalimentaria (Nov 7-10) in Guanajuato, Mexico
