Xact Prepack, Frutmac launch sustainable cardboard packaging for UK market

UK – Xact Prepack has partnered with Frutmac to introduce a new range of environmentally conscious cardboard packaging solutions tailored to the UK’s fresh produce and food sectors.

This collaboration brings to market a diverse selection of premium cardboard trays and punnets from Frutmac, offering a sustainable and versatile alternative to traditional plastic packaging.

Designed to accommodate everything from fresh fruits and vegetables to baked goods, the packaging range caters to various food products while meeting the industry’s growing demand for recyclable solutions.

Made from materials such as conventional corrugated board and eco-friendly grass paper, Frutmac’s packaging is fully customizable.

Options include PET-coated finishes, lids, and various presentation styles. Additionally, businesses can enhance their brand identity with bespoke printing services.

The packaging can also be adapted for stretch or flowpack films, ensuring flexibility and compatibility with diverse supply chain needs.

This integrated solution streamlines the entire packaging process—from filling to final presentation, while maintaining a strong commitment to sustainability.

The partnership leverages Xact Prepack’s in-depth knowledge of the UK market and its sustainability-driven mission, alongside Frutmac’s global reputation for developing high-quality, fully recyclable packaging and automation technology.
