Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of containers, and more particularly, to promotional panels for a reusable plastic container (RPC).
  • RPC reusable plastic container
  • Packaging is a critical component in the produce supply chain. Produce looks very fresh and undamaged when first harvested. However, conventional corrugated packaging does not always deliver the produce in the same condition as initially harvested. The corrugated packaging, i.e., boxes, tends to collapse when stacked one on top of another, thus damaging the produce. Extensively damaged produce is typically discarded, resulting in lost sells. Slightly damaged produce on display causes customers to be disappointed.
  • RPCs reusable plastic containers
  • Reusable plastic containers allow for minimized damage to the produce since the plastic containers will not collapse when stacked.
  • the reusable plastic containers are functional and effective, there is a need to better promote the items contained therein through merchandising and display to consumers in grocery and food service applications.
