Nicol\u00e1s Vidal, Post-harvest Manager at EMPACK, highlights: \u201cThe main objective of this development is to increase the proportion of 2.5 kg suitcases or other small packaging without slowing down the process, but always maintaining the quality and freshness of the fruit, and with a very robust traceability system.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The MultiSeal solution involves the integration of Flowpack equipment, digital traceability and machine vision, together with STEPAC-PPC's recognised expertise in modified atmosphere technologies and its developments for automatic processes, which are characterised by their exceptional mechanical strength and precision laser perforation, allowing optimal levels of gases and humidity to be achieved for fruit preservation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe see MultiSeal as an enabler to package these smaller formats, which are more cost-effective, but also offer additional advantages such as reduced labor, less space required and the possibility of operating 24\/7. In addition, it ensures greater food safety due to less handling,\u201d adds Nicol\u00e1s Vidal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Along the same lines, the EMPACK representative concluded: \u201cTogether with STEPAC-PPC, we have demonstrated a very powerful capacity for innovation and we believe that this development does not end here. Together with our integration area, we are already working on new technological blocks that allow us to automate the process beyond sealing and segregation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
EMPACK and STEPAC-PPC have a 9-year collaboration relationship, during which they have achieved important developments in the preservation of fresh fruit. Among their achievements are the flowpack solution for blueberries and the Xgo resealable heat-sealing solution, which allow the modified atmosphere to be maintained until it reaches the final consumer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The official launch of MultiSeal is expected to revolutionize the cherry packaging industry in Chile, providing automated solutions that improve efficiency, profitability and fruit quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
