PACKAGING
explained Famag Quality Manager
Justyna Knaflewska, is tailored to the
needs and customized to the product.
" The main argument was the desire
to find a pro-ecological solution because
we care about the future, " she said.
The task was not easy, she said.
Despite a change in weight, the quality
and strength of the packaging had
to remain unchanged. The team was
successful in the end, and the resulting
product is NOVO-PACK.
" NOVO-PACK is ideal for packaging
fresh vegetables and fruits that breathe, "
said Knaflewska. " The mesh used in
this solution provides air circulation
to products such as onions, potatoes,
oranges, lemons, but also nuts in hard
shells, like hazelnuts and walnuts.
The new NOVO-PACK is up to
40% lighter compared to traditional
packaging, she added. " By 'traditional
packaging' we mean a combination of
two films in a laminate, glue and mesh, "
said Knaflewska. " It is a diverse, difficultto-recycle,
uneconomical solution due
to the amount of raw material. "
Considering that, Famag believes
that their new solution offers several
benefits. There is less plastic in the final
solution, for one, and the material used
to make NOVO-PACK is homogenous
and 100% recyclable. Finally, the lighter

weight means more can be transported
at the same cargo weight, which reduces
further emissions during transport.
CartoPaper prevents dehydration
and encourages recycling
Packagers of products like potatoes
and onions have special needs.
Packaging should prolong shelf life and
limit product loss as much as possible.
Today's fruit and vegetable processors
and packagers look beyond those basic
needs to more sustainable options
that further meet the demands of the
environmentally conscious consumer.
One such company is Paardekooper (until
recently, Van der Windt Verpakking)
in The Netherlands. Working jointly
with German company Cartomat,
Pardekooper developed CartoPaper,
