Jan 18 2012 --- Baltimore Innovations is adding to its portfolio of specialty packaging with the launch of the Fresh-R-Pax “Fruit-Pop” pouch. It will make its European debut at the Fresh Conex show in Berlin on the 8th February. Fresh Conex is the World’s leading Fresh Produce trade show and runs alongside Fruit Logistica, attracting the movers and shakers from the world of fresh produce to Berlin each year..

The “Fruit Pop” Pouches are made with food-safe absorbent technology which allows processors to pack ripe and sweet tasting fruit. The new packs are easy to open, tamper evident, and are ideal for packing slices of fresh-cut pineapple and melon. Most importantly, it offers extended shelf life relative to other alternative in the market.

“Customers have been asking us to develop a way of packing fresh cut fruit into single-serve portions, with extended shelf life. At the same time they’ve asked us to keep the solution economically attractive. We’ve been working on this new Fruit-Pop pack for a few years, and we’re now happy that it ticks all three boxes” said Matthew Valentine, Managing Director, Baltimore Innovations.
