For those times when perishables need to be sentto retailers around the country, or even the world, specific wrapping is a must. For example,if it is a fish based consignment, Seafood Packaging should be used to keep the product fresh and stop it from contaminating other parcels. Extra care should be taken when choosing Poultry Boxes since it is widely known that fluid drips from poultry or its by productscause severe food poisoning. Indeed, the perfect choice for any product that is likely to drip likefood and perishables is Wax Packaging.
This type of container is necessary
to alleviate cross contamination. Kalamari and other ‘fishy’ thingsare a particularly smelly cargo and will contaminate anything that comes in contact with it rendering the product unusable. These cartons are best used with a cooling system likegel packs that are frozen when the order is about to go out. They are inserted into the cartons, in and on the goods, and they ensure that the food or perishables stay as cold as possible while they are in transit. This cuts down on any spoilage and ensures thatthe goods are delivered in an ‘as fresh as possible’ condition.
Once customers are satisfied that all delicacies and fresh foodwill always be delivered in an uncontaminated, fresh state then the company producing the cartons will always have a customer!
Where chicken is concerned, keeping drips off other goods is very important. Who remembers the salmonella outbreak that occurred a number of years ago and thecontroversy it caused? Even egg producers were in dire problems because of the lack of clients who wouldn’t buythese products for fear of contracting the disease. Indeed, this disease proved horrendousin some cases.
Many carton manufacturers will tailor-makethe cartons in the style and size required. This is great foranyone wanting anything other than normalsizes and will also promote customer loyalty. Standardized containers can be used, but if there is a need forsmaller consignments will obviously need smaller containers.
The cartons are made up of very sturdycardboard, and coated with a waxy type coating. This makes sure that the container is impermeable to liquidand also proves to be very strong too. Consider what weight and size of the consignment and then choose thecontainer. Depending on what it will be carrying, cartons that don’t break are the obvious choice for any company. They may be used in other waysif care is taken when handling them. Again though, cross contamination is a definite thing to avoid.
Don’t forget the advertising opportunitiesconnected to purpose made cartons either. Because they are custom made, these contaiers are a great advertising tool with many opportunities to add valuable informationon the side for all to see. Phone numbers, email and postal addresses can also be displayed along all sides and top and bottom andwill become synonymous with the product.
They will not only keep the product fresh, but they will also spread the company name not only to its destination but all along the way tooand it won’t cost a single cent! This is a great way to offset the cost of the purpose built; customized cartons which will be well worth it in the long run.
