Some things never change. And, just like bicycles, watermelons and melons are the stars of the summer season.
Even if we only get to enjoy them for a few months, their flavours most definitely raise passions. But how do these fruits get from the farms to our tables?
Every year, along with the arrival of summer shorts, hand-held fans and sandals, supermarkets fill up with these sought-after green orbs. Everyone wants to see them, touch them, feel their skin and then take one under their arm to enjoy their taste later on.
Displaying them in all their splendour is no easy task. For this reason, at Hinojosa, as experts in packaging solutions, we offer you the best options: innovative, sustainable and adapted to the requirements of the Royal Decree on Packaging approved in 2023.
Vegabox Easy and other solutions to ensure everything (does not!) keep rolling
This container, made of 100% recyclable corrugated cardboard, allows watermelons and melons to be presented on the supermarket shelf in an attractive, convenient and environmentally friendly way.
In addition to saving assembly time and storage space, and thanks to its format, this display complies with the regulations of the Royal Decree on Packaging 2023. A provision adopted with the aim of unifying the rules on packaging and packaging waste management in order to minimise its impact on the planet. Among other measures, the decree will limit the use of plastics, including the stickers that traditionally accompany some pieces of fruit.
On the other hand, if you are looking for tough, eco-friendly packaging in a smaller size, our traditional agricultural trays may be the ideal choice.
Designed to support the weight of large fruits, they are made by combining the skills of our best professionals with high quality materials. Thanks to their design, they not only protect and facilitate the transport of the product, but also optimise stock management and help to save costs.
