Vegetables and fruits, fresh herbs
Key properties of fresh produce packaging
Anti-fog effect. A special anti-fog treatment on the inner surface of the film prevents condensation formation. This is especially important when storing and transporting products within the cold chain. The transparent surface of the bag provides the customer with a clear view of the contents even during temperature fluctuations.
- High optical properties. The film has excellent clarity and gloss, emphasizing the freshness and natural appearance of vegetables and fruits, contributing to a positive perception of the product on the store shelf.
- Protection from external factors. Packaging materials have barrier properties that limit the penetration of moisture, dust, odors, and oxygen, extending the product’s shelf life and preventing spoilage.
- Strength and elasticity. The packaging is resistant to punctures and tears, which is especially important for packing vegetables with a firm structure (such as carrots or beets), as well as for transporting delicate fresh greens that are easily damaged.
Packaging options
- Perforated bags — allow air circulation, preventing moisture buildup.
- Flow-pack films — for high-speed automatic packaging lines.
- Pre-formed zipper bags — convenient for multiple openings/closings.
- Laminations with CPP, BOPP, PET, LDPE — depending on the type of product and the required barrier properties.
Aesthetics and branding
Printing on film is done using the flexographic method, enabling vibrant designs that highlight product freshness and display information about the producer, certifications, or expiration dates. High-quality printing on transparent or semi-transparent film looks stylish and appealing.
Packaging for vegetables, fruits, and greens is not just a protective barrier — it’s an effective tool for extending shelf life, improving logistics, and boosting sales. High-quality film with an anti-fog effect and excellent optical characteristics ensures that the product reaches the end consumer in the best possible condition.
