Fish Boxes & Containers
PPS East provide, collect and wash a wide range of returnable packaging for fresh fish. Our fish boxes are designed for todays chilled supply chain, and can provide a safe and integrated handling system to support logistics whilst contributing to protecting the freshness and quality of the catch.
They are rented to fish farms, suppliers and processors in order to transport product, and it is our responsibility to retrieve them and have them hygienically cleaned at our box washing sites.
Benefits of Returnable Packaging for Fresh Fish
Our customers could not only benefit from a reduced carbon footprint and less waste but also clear cost efficiencies.
These cost savings may include:
- Economic box rental costs
- No capital expenditure required for the purchasing of boxes.
- Lower product loss due to better handling and less box breakages
- Reduced waste management costs – all our equipment is re-used.
- Reduction in storage requirements at your site as our boxes nest, and can be ordered daily.
For the Retailer it is important that their suppliers are looking at reducing waste packaging within their complete supply chain. Returnable boxes are a great way of doing this, whilst also maintaining the quality and freshness of the fish.
PPS East allows our seafood customers to concentrate on the catching, farming, selling, buying, and processing of their fish – we take care of the packaging.
