Striking the right balance between quality and cost-efficiency in the fresh produce industry is essential. “As the trend towards exporting fruits and vegetables in bulk containers continues to grow, the Euro Jumbo Bin® by Mpact Plastic Containers stands out as a game-changer. It is specifically designed to meet the needs of exporters, importers, pack houses, and growers, this innovative solution is set to elevate the standards for the transport and storage of fresh produce in bulk,” a senior executive at the company stated.
Thanks to several key advantages, the use of bulk containers for storing and transporting fresh produce has increased significantly. One of the most important benefits is improved quality control. Packing fresh produce in retail-ready packaging closer to the point of consumption helps maintain the highest quality standards, ensuring that fresh produce arrives at the customer in optimal condition and boosts customer satisfaction. Bulk containers also streamline operations at pack houses, enabling them to handle and store larger volumes of produce, reducing labour costs and minimising product damage.
These containers also deliver cost savings by reducing packaging expenses. Additionally, the improved protection and handling help minimise wastage, leading to financial gains and promoting environmental sustainability.
“Mpact Plastic Containers has developed the Euro Jumbo Bin with excellence in mind, specialising in both the manufacturing and rental of these bins to support the export of fresh produce from South Africa to Europe. Designed to meet European specifications, the Euro Jumbo Bin integrates seamlessly into the supply chain, ensuring it meets market requirements effectively,” states the company.
Key features:
- Smooth, rounded interior corners: Help to minimise damage to delicate fruits and vegetables during transit, preserving their quality.
- Optimised container volumes: Externalised walls maximise packing capacity, allowing more produce to be transported in each bin.
- Superior ventilation: Multiple slots provide optimal airflow, which is crucial for maintaining the freshness of produce.
- RFID tags: These enable advanced tracking and simplify logistical management, enhancing traceability throughout the supply chain.
- Sustainable materials: The bins are made from fully recyclable polypropylene (PP) or high-density polyethylene (HDPE), allowing for reuse and reducing their environmental impact.
To offer flexibility, the Euro Jumbo Bin is available for both rental and purchase, giving businesses the freedom to choose the best option for their needs. Whether you’re looking to streamline supply chains with reliable, high-quality bulk containers or opting for a cost-effective rental solution, Mpact Plastic Containers provides tailored options to suit various operational requirements.
Once the Euro Jumbo Bin arrives in Europe, they are either returned to South Africa or sold to customers in Europe, creating a closed-loop system, enhancing supply chain efficiency. “The Euro Jumbo Bin offers a revolutionary solution that helps customers meet these demands.
