The New Choice for Plastic-Free Shipping: Biodegradable Fruit Trays & Customized Compostable Liners

When fresh packaging is seeking a balance between "protection", "compliance", and "cost", our biodegradable fruit tray is officially launched - it is not only suitable for fresh categories such as strawberries and apples, but also has the differentiation advantages of "environmental protection+flexibility+cost adaptation", becoming a new option outside of plastic fruit trays and kraft paper fruit trays.

1、Common requirements for fruit packaging: How can our biodegradable fruit pads be accurately matched?

For fruit and vegetable growers, distributors, and supermarkets, the core demand for packaging is always "protective products+efficiency+compliance+controllable costs":

① Stable support for fruits is required to reduce transportation/display losses;

② Flexibility to adapt to different categories and packaging scenarios;

③ Need to align with the increasingly stringent global trend of green packaging;

④ We need to find a reasonable balance between cost and quality.

And our biodegradable fruit pads are designed as a 'flexible solution' around these needs.

2、Compared to traditional packaging: differentiated advantages of biodegradable fruit tray

In the current era where plastic fruit trays and kraft paper fruit trays are widely used, the unique value of this biodegradable fruit mat lies in:

① More flexible adaptability of cost range

From the perspective of mainstream market prices: kraft paper fruit trays>biodegradable fruit mats>plastic fruit trays.

Degradable fruit pads are in the "middle cost zone" - they have a cost advantage over kraft paper trays and can achieve the dual value of "environmental compliance+protection upgrade" with slightly higher investment than plastic slot trays. They are suitable for brands that pursue "quality+green" but control costs.

② The environmental attributes are more suitable for long-term compliance 

Using biodegradable plant fibers as raw materials, in line with international environmental standards such as EU EN13432 and US ASTM D6400. It can not only meet the brand's green packaging upgrade needs, but also match the environmental preferences of end consumers, while avoiding potential risks of "plastic packaging use restrictions" in some regions.

③ Better protection and adaptability

Compared to plastic fruit trays: Its flexible material can better fit the shape of the fruit, cushioning collisions while avoiding scratching of the skin by hard materials;

Compared to kraft paper fruit trays: It has better structural toughness, is less prone to deformation during multi link turnover, and can be customized with different hole numbers (suitable for strawberries, apples, and other sizes) and sizes (suitable for various packaging containers), making it more adaptable to diverse scenarios.

④ Customization enhances brand added value 

Supporting full dimensional customization of color, hole count, and size - it can not only match the brand's visual system, but also "accurately adapt" to the packaging needs of different categories such as strawberries and apples, helping packaging upgrade from a "functional carrier" to a "brand display window".

3、Adaptation scenario: covering multiple links of the fresh food industry chain

Origin end: Use directly after harvesting to reduce losses from the field to storage;

Logistics end: Customize hole patterns suitable for different fruits to improve batch turnover efficiency;

Terminal end: Customize brand color pads to enhance the recognition and texture of shelf packaging.

Plastic fruit trays and kraft paper fruit trays still have irreplaceable value in their respective costs and scenarios, and the launch of biodegradable fruit pads is a new option for fresh packaging that provides "moderate cost, environmental compliance, and flexible adaptation" - it is not only a protective pad for strawberries and apples, but also a "high cost-effective tool" for brands in upgrading green packaging.
