How to choose a PET fruit box suitable for fresh fruit packaging?

2025 05/06

With the rapid development of the fresh food market, the packaging form of fruits is upgrading from traditional simple packaging to high added value, portability and environmental protection. As a food-grade container currently widely used in fresh fruit packaging, PET fruit boxes are favored by more and more fruit processing companies, supermarket suppliers and fresh food brands due to their excellent transparency, strength and recyclability. So, how to choose a suitable PET fruit box according to different fruit categories and transportation and display needs?
 
1. Choose specifications and structures according to fruit types
Different fruits have different requirements for the capacity, air permeability and protection performance of packaging containers. For example:
 
  • Small berries such as blueberries and raspberries: It is recommended to choose fruit boxes with small capacity, good sealing and air permeability to avoid squeezing and water accumulation, while keeping the fruit fresh.
  • Soft fruits that are easy to compress, such as strawberries and cherry tomatoes: It is recommended to use PET boxes with a certain inner support structure or partition function, which can effectively prevent collisions during transportation.
  • Cut fruit, mixed fruit cup: You can choose an independent sealed fruit box with a lid, which is convenient for instant eating and suitable for convenience stores and cold chain distribution scenarios.
 
Our company Sequoia Enterprise provides a variety of standard sizes of PET fruit boxes, ranging from 150ml to 1000ml, and supports customers to customize specifications and structural designs to adapt to different fruit product lines.
 
2. Material safety and compliance
PET material not only has high transparency, which can enhance the display effect of fruit shelves, but also has excellent food contact safety. All our PET fruit boxes are made of food-grade virgin PET materials, which meet FDA and EU food contact material standards and can be directly used for fruit packaging and refrigerated storage without secondary cleaning, ensuring peace of mind.
 
3. Consider transportation and stacking performance
In the B-end channel, most fruits need to undergo long-distance transportation and cold chain storage, so the packaging container must have good pressure resistance and stacking stability. Our fruit box design focuses on structural strength and stacking anti-slip design, with a firm buckle or flip cover structure to ensure the safety and stability of the fruit during transportation.
