BART FMCG
Fruit and vegetable packaging
Freshness protection, logistics and product display.
Fruit and vegetable packaging works under pressure: time, moisture, seasonal volume and the visual quality of fresh produce.
Share the product type, weight, seasonal volume, transport conditions and pallet photos. We will suggest structure and board direction.
Process cost
In FMCG, packaging is part of the process
In fresh produce, a small packaging mismatch can become expensive quickly. The product is sensitive, the season is short, and claims often concern the entire delivery experience, not only visible damage.
Project focus
How we design packaging
Stacking stability
Structure and stabilising elements matched to product sensitivity and transport conditions.
Ventilation and cold-chain handling
Simpler assembly, opening and handling so the pack does not slow the team down.
Pallet layout
Pack layout, unit stability and pallet use matched to the real delivery flow.
Batch and variant identification
Clear variant and product-line identification for picking, display and ordering.
Mechanical damage reduction
Structure and stabilising elements matched to product sensitivity and transport conditions.
Handling speed during packing
Simpler assembly, opening and handling so the pack does not slow the team down.
Applications
Packaging matched to the need
Each direction leads to a page that frames the solution through product, logistics or in-store work.
Packaging brief
Match the packaging to produce, pallet and season
Share the product type, weight, seasonal volume, transport conditions and pallet photos. We will suggest structure and board direction.
BART process
From brief to stable production
Brief and diagnosis
We collect information about the product, volume, channel, current packaging and the problem to solve.
Structure and board
We define format, flute, ply count, stabilising elements, opening logic and print scope.
Prototype or variants
We compare directions by protection, total cost, packing speed, palletisation and display performance.
Technical verification
We check material and packaging parameters where they reduce implementation risk.
Production and working standard
After approval, we move into production and help standardise the packaging workflow.
How we reduce implementation risk
At BART, packaging design, corrugated board, structure selection, print and quality control come together in one conversation. That means the discussion does not end with carton dimensions. We can focus on how the pack behaves in transport, on pallets, on the packing line and in display — especially when the real target is total process cost, not just unit price.
BART technical base
Our design can be verified before production
This is not about claiming that the pack will work. It is about verifying structure, material, process and compliance before the solution moves into regular production.
Material testing and quality control
Laboratory support helps verify paper, board and packaging parameters before scaling a packaging direction.
Board, flute and ply selection
The packaging structure can be aligned with product, transport, warehouse and display requirements.
Total process cost optimisation
Packaging audits look beyond unit price and include palletisation, handling, stability and damage risk.
Quality and compliance standards
Certifications and process standards make supplier assessment easier for procurement, quality and operations teams.
FAQ
Should produce packaging include ventilation?
Often yes, but ventilation must be designed together with structure and load. Poorly placed openings can weaken the pack.
Can pallet efficiency be improved without changing the product?
Yes. Format, unit layout, height and corner structure can often improve pallet use.
Can produce packaging work as display?
Yes, if the front, access, stability and retail placement are designed from the beginning.
What do you need for a quote?
Product type, weight, units per pack, transport conditions, current packaging and pallet photos, plus buyer requirements.

More context before the brief
Fruit and vegetable packaging should be evaluated through the whole process: stacking stability, ventilation and cold-chain handling, pallet layout. A clear brief makes it easier to compare structure, board, handling and implementation options.
Before a discussion, it helps to define the product, current packaging, volume, palletisation, retail requirements and applications such as corrugated trays and crates, transport boxes, retail-ready produce pack. This gives the team a better starting point for verifying what should be checked before production and where packaging can reduce cost or implementation risk.
