Meat Container FAQs

How does moving from single-use to reusables cut waste and carbon footprint in the meat supply chain?

Reusable containers last for thousands of trips, protect heavy proteins, and reduce leaks and shrink. Their durability allows higher stacking without product damage and better cube utilization on pallets and in trucks. With fuller trucks and fewer trips, the meat supply chain reduces CO₂ emissions and landfill waste while improving efficiency and sustainability.

How does the 65226 container maintain cold-chain integrity and product freshness from plant to store?

The Meat 65226 is built for durability, with a non-porous, ventilated design that allows air to circulate and maintain a consistent temperature across the pallet. This ensures the cold chain stays intact. Its strength protects products from box crush damage, while the non-porous surface helps prevent bacteria buildup and contamination.

How can businesses lower labor and transportation costs by switching to reusable meat packaging containers?

Reusable meat packaging containers save labor time by eliminating box breakdowns and the need to restack pallets that shift in transit. Their durable, standardized design improves cube utilization, allowing fuller pallets and trucks. This efficiency cuts transportation costs by up to 25% while also reducing shrink, CO₂ emissions, and handling time.

Can this container integrate with automated storage and retrieval or robotic picking?

Yes, reusable plastic containers have a standardized footprint and rigid design, making them highly compatible with automated storage and retrieval (AS/RS) systems and robotic picking. This compatibility streamlines operations and boosts overall efficiency across the meat supply chain.
