Italian immigrants brought many habits from their homeland to Brazil. One of them is the cultivation of grapesfor the production of wines and juices. And what started as an inheritance is now a successful and very profitable business, especially in the Serra Gaúcha region.
Much of this triumph is due to the inclusion of new techniquesin production. Although the charm of grape harvesting is linked to traditions, technology has become part of the vineyards’ daily lives. A good example of this is the use of rotomolded plastic containersfor the collection, storage and transport of fruit in wine production in Farroupilha/RS.

Rotomolded Plastic Containers- Evolution in the Wine Industry

The containers, produced with rotomolded plastic, have antimicrobial protection, which prevents the proliferation of fungi and bacteria. They also follow ANVISA specifications, ABNT 1642 and good manufacturing practices (GMP), a fundamental factor in the food industry.
The Tecnotri, a company from Rio Grande do Sul specialized in the manufacture of rotomolded plastic parts, offers containers in versions from 39 to 650 liters and with load capacities of up to 1000 kg. Versatile, the containers stand out for their great durability, unlike the wooden boxes traditionally used in the grape industry.
