You may have already heard about plastic containers<\/a>, but you may not know how they are used in practice.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Normally, this type of product is used in refrigerators to increase productivity and safety of operations. But its use goes further and can also be a great alternative for different food industries.<\/span><\/p>\n

Follow the reading and understand more about the versatility of plastic containers and how they make a difference in your company.<\/span><\/p>\n

What are plastic containers?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Also called containers bins<\/a>, they are products developed in rotomolded plastic, allowing fresh contact with food. Extremely robust, they are easy to handle and clean.<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition to ensuring greater safety in logistics processes, they reduce work accidents and maintenance costs. Versatile, they adapt to different applications within the logistics operations of an industry.<\/span><\/p>\n

In which industry segments can containers be used?<\/b><\/h2>\n

The versatility of the containers is one of their differences. Therefore, it can be included in various segments, such as:<\/span><\/p>\n

Refrigerators<\/b><\/h3>\n

In addition to the need for hygiene, temperature control is another important point for storing meat.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When using bin containers, industries can be worry-free, as they have thermal insulation, preventing temperature changes from altering the interior contents.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition, the containers meet all standards<\/strong><\/a> in the refrigerator segment.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fish<\/b><\/h3>\n

Often, fish end up being discarded because they acquire fungus<\/strong> <\/a>coming from poorly developed equipment. In the case of containers, there is no such problem!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tecnotri offers a 600 liter bin container in the thermal version, which has a triple wall, two runners and locks on the lid to guarantee fixing and the drainage system.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

These features increase food conservation and also facilitate the cleaning process.<\/span><\/p>\n

Food<\/b><\/h3>\n

In general, food production has safety and hygiene as some of its main requirements. Therefore, plastic containers can store and transport products without the risk of contamination.<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition, as they are monoblock equipment, that is, without seams or welding, they allow for easier and more effective cleaning.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fruits<\/b><\/h3>\n

Fruits, vegetables, plants and other agricultural inputs can also be transported and stored in plastic containers. In the case of grapes, for example, the bins favor hygienic conditions when transporting and storing the fruit.<\/span><\/p>\n

What’s more: these large plastic containers are easily removed from the field by a tractor with a fork attached, reducing manual labor and bringing savings of up to 30% for the harvest<\/strong><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

How important are bins containers to meet regulatory standards?<\/b><\/h2>\n

The bins comply with all hygiene and safety standards required in the food industries, including:<\/span><\/p>\n

National:<\/b><\/h3>\n

– Anvisa;<\/span><\/p>\n

– GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices);<\/span><\/p>\n

– FSSC 22000<\/strong><\/a> (food safety certification based on the ISO 22000 standard);<\/span><\/p>\n

– Map (Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock).<\/span><\/p>\n

International:<\/b><\/h3>\n

– GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices);<\/span><\/p>\n

– HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point);<\/span><\/p>\n

– FDA (Federal Drug Administration).<\/span><\/p>\n

To give you an idea, Anvisa itself recommends the use of resistant, waterproof and smooth equipment to store food, packaging and containers \u2014 which is achieved by rotomolded plastic containers.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is worth highlighting that care in food production involves all processes: handling, preparation, fractionation, storage, distribution, transportation, display for sale and delivery of products. When investing in bins, you can be sure that you are following the requirements requested by regulatory standards and regulatory bodies, both in relation to hygiene and food preservation, as well as safety for employees.<\/span><\/p>\n
