Australian fruit packaging

The degree of mechanization of production, packaging and transport of Australian fruits is relatively high. In Australia, the packaging of various fruits should be designed according to the physiological requirements, fruit type and peel characteristics of different fruits. In addition, more expensive and rare fruits need special packaging. For example, the litchi packaging procedure is to remove the leaves and branches from the picked fruit and then perform drug treatment. The purified fresh lychee is placed in a small tray, 500g or 750g per plate, and then it is wrapped with a self-adhesive film with a small hole; then the tray containing the lychees is placed in a carton (5kg per carton). Stoma, and elegantly decorated, are attractive. The cartons are wax treated to prevent the cartons from compressing due to moisture in the cold storage.

Mango is also packed in cartons, with 2-3 layers per box. There is a concave tray between the layers. The material of the tray is usually pulp or plastic, and lattice-shaped cushions are also used.

Australian melons are smaller and rounder in shape. They are also grown in cartons. The exported melons are 8-11 layers per box. To prevent collisions between melons, there are septa between the layers.

The size of the Australian fruit crates is not only suitable for fruit dressing but also for tray arrangement, which facilitates container transportation. In addition, attention is also paid to the fruit picking and some measures taken according to the characteristics of fruit physiology in order to prevent fruit from unnecessary harm.

All kinds of Australian fruit packaging are packed in colorful cartons, then palletized, and the pallets are shipped in containers. From the box type, most of them are in the form of a heaven and earth cover. When the cover is opened, the freshness of the fruit can be seen. These cartons conform to the tray standards. Australia's fruit has achieved packaging palletization, loading and unloading mechanization, and transportation containerization.

Australia attaches great importance to scientific research on fruit packaging. Since fruit is a living living body, different measures must be taken in the packaging for the physiological characteristics of different species, especially for some of the more delicate varieties. Litchi, if it does not understand its physiological characteristics, cannot take measures from the packaging, and the general packaging method has long lost its food value when it is shipped to the place of sale. Australia's fruit packaging and decorating design and box design are often new, with few years of consistent packaging. As soon as the new packaging is well received by the market, that is, it is sold quickly, this packaging will be recognized.

Not long ago, the Mellins Packaging Plant in Australia developed a dedicated vegetable packaging carton for the packaging of agricultural and sideline products containing fruits and vegetables. The inside and outside of the carton are coated with a layer of polypropylene or polyethylene in order to maintain the moisture content of the contents. Therefore, the hydrated products do not need to be lined with materials.

The carton is also suitable for packaging frozen foods, which can keep the moisture of the packaged foods during the sales process. Its appearance can also print a variety of designs and trademarks for export product packaging.
