Why choose solid board packaging for fruit & vegetables?

Moisture-resistant

  • Our fruit and vegetables packaging retains its strength, shape and volume in humid and wet conditions. In extremely wet conditions, our Sapino-treated solid board with PE (optional) coating, offers the required water resistance for your chilled products.

Fully recyclable

  • Today, solid board packaging is produced to nearly 100% by recovered waste paper which is collected in commerce, industry, administration and private households. Used packaging and other paper and board products are collected after use and the fibres are recovered as part of the standard paper recycling process. Fibre-based packaging material can be recycled at least 25 times without losing its mechanical or structural integrity.

Punnets

With our PPWR compliant punnets we transform recycled natural resources into circular value propositions which contribute to a cleaner world with less waste.

We also offer sealable punnets, which ensures stable stacking for safer transport, while protecting products from contamination. Easy to open and often resealable, they offer convenience for both consumers and retailers. Compared to traditional plastic lids, our punnets use less plastic and are fully recyclable when combined with Solidus’ trays.
