PACKAGING
 Fox Solutions and Fox Packaging offer a variety of bagging materials, like sustainable pouches and
mesh combos, as well as equipment that can weigh and bag the product. Photos: Fox Packaging
Ossid, a North Carolina-based company
that manufactures packaging equipment,
said there are benefits to offering this
type of packaging. First, no one else
can touch the produce. It's convenient
and compact with a pre-priced label
that shows consumers how much they
are spending, and the product stays
fresher longer.
" This is also valuable from the
retailer's viewpoint, as this packaging
creates easy bundle packs for display,
decreases waste from transport, and
increases item quantity sold, " said Angel.
Fox Packaging customers have
expressed similar concerns about
hygiene. " As consumers become
increasingly aware of the touch points
of their produce, packaging has served
as a protective barrier that keeps
produce untouched and offers peace
of mind, " said Fox.
In the UK, cardboard packaging
company DS Smith is working to develop
virus-resistant packaging that uses
an anti-microbial coating to provide
consumers with additional safeguards.
" Whilst it would never replace good
hygiene practices and due care, this
technology has the potential to bring
a real and proven additional layer
of protection to our customers and
their consumers as packaging moves
across the supply chain, " said Alan
Potts, design and innovation director
for DS Smith.
