Complying with the tips and standards related to fruit packaging for export is definitely effective in capturing more of the target market in the destination country. For example, by observing the principles of packaging, Turkey was able to capture a large part of the fruit and vegetable market in Qatar in competition with other competitors, including Iran. 22 fruit and vegetable products were made only by observing the correct principles and standards of packaging.
Some products included in this law are: apple, kiwi, sweet lemon, cherry, peach, pomegranate, orange, Apricot, cherry, nectarine, lime. According to the resolution of the Trade Development Organization, the purpose of implementing the fruit packaging law in fruit export cartons is to reduce waste and prevent damage to perishable products.
Packaging of fruit export is not a cost, value creation
Perhaps, in the first place, many producers and exporters think that in the matter of export, it is only the product itself that is important in penetrating the target market. But it should be taken into account that the final consumer, the first thing he sees about our product is its packaging, in other words, its carton. The utmost precision and obsession should be spent and this work should be done in accordance with the spirit, culture and taste of the target market consumer, we can hope that by presenting a quality product in the form of stylish and unique packaging and fruit cartons, the target market can be captured by the products.
Therefore, we should not worry about the possible costs due to packaging, because many times this cost will be returned to us by gaining the satisfaction and attention of the consumer.
Maintaining the moisture of fruits is a fundamental principle in basic and efficient packaging
Fruits and vegetables usually have a very high humidity, which ranges from 75 to 95% on average. Keeping them moist is actually trying to keep them healthy and prevent them from drying out or spoiling. In any case, the exported fruits are supposed to travel a relatively long way from the country of origin to the destination and reach the final consumer.
Regarding maintaining the quality of fruits, it seems that there is no more important issue than maintaining their freshness. In a new and unique design, we have to prepare the packaging specifically for each produced product, and after evaluating the fruit and fully knowing how to maintain its freshness and freshness, we design its special packaging.
Maintaining the freshness and moisture of fruits is considered as the most important factor in export fruit cartons in order to maintain product quality.
Export fruit box or use of exported fruit cartons
It is inevitable to use cartons to pack fruit for export in compliance with the standards approved by the Trade Development Organization for fruit export. Using cardboard makes it easier to follow these instructions. On the other hand, due to the nature of the carton, it is possible to implement all kinds of graphic designs on it to add to the attractiveness of the packaging. You can produce fruit cartons in different sizes and arrange the fruit in it according to the needs and tastes of the consumer. Also, regarding the strength and resistance of this type of packaging, you can use five-layer single-row cardboard, five-layer double-sided cardboard, 5-layer cardboard with a lid, etc., which have high strength and good resistance against pressure and water penetration.
Another important and fundamental point that is gradually becoming a law in many fruit export destination countries is the restrictions related to waste disposal for the packaging of imported products. In fact, it will not take long for all countries to implement this law. To adapt to these conditions, the use of recyclable cardboard is the key. Recyclability of fruit cartons is one of their main advantages compared to existing plastic packaging. Another important point regarding the comparison of export fruit cartons and plastic boxes is that many export fruit cartons have the ability to assemble and open and close the body, while plastic boxes mostly lack this feature.
