A new fully foldable crate with a series of innovative features, called Future, has been developed by the Salerno-based company Ecoplastica and will be available in all types from mid-November.
"The advantages of this new product are numerous. Starting with the coloured handles, which are highly resistant and easy to replace. The unique and original texture is a guarantee of strength and durability and can also enhance the aesthetic appearance of the product. The case is also equipped with a space for barcoding, an aspect designed to facilitate the management of product flows through automated warehousing systems. According to Francesco De Giovanni, the company's sole director, "The RFID/NFC tag for smart product management allows advanced traceability."

General Manager Domenico Monteleone adds: "The innovative design of the new Future box avoids water stagnation, dust deposits and various residues, and allows easy washing and high ventilation of the product inside. It is also compatible with other systems and offers total stackability between the two 40x60 and 30x40 formats, whether the crates are open or closed. The last detail not to be underestimated is the possibility of personalisation through labelling or embossing."
"During the Madrid fair, we received a lot of interest in our crates from Latin American countries, which left us with very positive feedback. It will be interesting to see how these contacts develop. In Spain, we should also be able to conclude some distribution agreements, but everything is still in progress. In general, expectations are very high," explains Monteleone.
