Keeping Fresh Produce Fresh – Smart Solutions for the Food Industry

Keeping fresh produce fresh

Maintaining the freshness, good appearance, great taste and safety of fresh fruit, vegetables and other perishable foods can be a real challenge as changes in retailing have increased the time, distance and complexity of delivery from producer to consumer. All producers look for ways to extend the marketable life of fresh foods, as well as ways to increase packing efficiency.

Transporting and storing large quantities of fruit and/or vegetables demands special care and fast response times. CMTP has long been a leader in packaging for large quantities of fresh food.

Produce bins and boxes for optimal produce protection

For 30 years, horticulturists have relied on CMTP’s super-heavy duty boxes and produce bins such as onion bins and potato bins, to carry large loads of fresh food to market. CMTP caters for more fragile loads too, with small, protective boxes for asparagus and other high-value crops.
