This year we are excited to be highlighting our amazing offering of state-of-the-art packaging equipment and produce films, alongside innovative and sustainable solutions that will improve your packaging process.

A Focus on Solutions

Produce packaging films are one of the key components to protecting your fresh produce on its way to market. In today’s market, it is estimated that between 25-50% of all fresh food is lost before it makes it to market. Produce packaging and films work to reduce food loss by increasing protection and extending product shelf life.

Crawford Packaging has been developing our lineup of automated packaging equipment, products, and service for over 50 years with the goal of enhancing your business performance. We understand that each company in need of packaging solutions is unique – we are ready to help!

 

Top Seal

Top seal packaging is one of the fastest growing packaging methods in the produce market today. These reusable containers offer Produce Growers the added protection of a hard container, but with up to 25% less raw material used.

GrowPack top seal films are designed to work with metal, fiber, and plastic packaging trays. GrowPack films are made from 100% recyclable materials, or advanced polyethylene made from renewable sources. With an increased surface area for branding GrowPack lidding films can include tamper evident technologies and are capable of printing in up to 9 different colours. More features about top seal film include:

  • Single and Dual Layer Films
  • Anti-Fog Options
  • Micro & Macro Perforation
  • Specialist Finished
  • Tamper-Evident Technology

Flow Wrap

Flow wrapping is the process of creating a bag around a product as it moves through a flow wrap machine. Packages can be created for individual items or for bulk produce packaging solutions. Flow wrap films are made from BOPP plastics and can be custom printed for increased branding opportunities.

GrowPack flow wrap films are made from custom manufactured BOPP films (biaxially oriented polypropylene), which are one of the most popular plastic films today. Custom manufactured to exacting specifications, GrowPack premium flow wrap films are market proven and offer excellent machinability.

Utilizing GrowPack flow wrap films made from BOPP film can improve your packaging process by:

  • Improved Product Appearance
  • Increased Productivity
  • Decreased Labour Costs
