Fruit and vegetable packaging
Fruit and vegetables are commonly packed in shrink film, a packaging solution that guarantees impeccable aesthetic results and does not compromise product freshness. Among the best fruit packaging of this type are VF films, multi-layer coextruded films made from a combination of polypropylene and polyethylene. This type of film for fresh fruit packaging has many merits, including its extreme aesthetic appeal, versatility and low cost compared to normal PVC films.
Although less common, fruit packaging can also be achieved using vacuum technology. In this case, we shift from the retail sector to the gastronomy and catering industries, which utilize vacuum packing to ensure long shelf life while enhancing food tenderness and juiciness. Minipack meets these specific needs with a diversified line of vacuum packaging machines capable of creating high-quality fruit packaging.
Packaging machines for vegetables
From the point of view of packaging, vegetables have requirements quite comparable to those of fruit: trays or crates protected by shrink wrapping are also widely used for these products, or vacuum packs for special culinary requirements in the catering sector.
Packaging machines for pulses
The most widely used packaging machines for legumes are vertical form-fill-seal (VFFS) machines with a three-side seal system, capable of creating the typical heat-sealable film pouches (or other film types) in which many legumes are marketed. Vertical bagging machines offer an excellent middle ground between time-consuming and labor-intensive manual bagging and automatic systems designed for large-scale operations. Furthermore, they are highly compact, meaning they can easily be installed even in smaller retail spaces.
In other cases, legumes are packaged in cans or jars, which are then grouped into a single pack using bundle wrapping machines; these compact, safe, and high-performance packaging systems deliver outstanding results. Even for these applications, Minipack provides high-tech legume packaging machinery capable of fully satisfying the demands of the target market.
Packaging loose fruit and vegetable products
Packaging machines for fresh fruit make it possible to produce safe and strong packaging for individual fruits or in groups, keeping them loose. The shrink film adheres perfectly to the product, protecting it and enhancing its visual appearance, making it more attractive for sale and distribution.
Packaging fruit and vegetables in trays
Packers for fresh fruit and vegetables can also wrap a tray or tub with shrink film, an ideal solution for supermarket counters. In addition to maintaining product integrity and ensuring excellent presentation, trays also simplify the storage of products on the shelves.
Not just fresh fruit: packaging machines for dried fruit
And what if you are looking for packaging machines for dried fruit? The minipack-torre range also covers the needs of this case; for packaging dried fruit, you can choose between shrinkwrappers, bagging machines or flow packs:
- a bagging machine is ideal for small businesses with limited production
- a flow pack can make small packages that are perfect for counter or totem display
- a shrink-wrapper is specifically for vacuum and then shrink-wrapped packaging, such as salted peanuts.
