Longer Lasting Berries Begin Here

When a consumer picks up a package of berries, they decide within 7 seconds if they will buy them. In those 7 seconds consumers are evaluating one thing, appearance. If the berries are dripping, molded, or mushed, consumers will pass, sales are missed and product is discarded.

McAirlaid’s has developed a new generation of fruit pads designed to enhance the appearance of packaged berries. FruitPad utilizes the same micro-pore technology as MeatPad which allows for safe transport and storage while minimizing the risk of bacteria and mold. The structure of the pad’s surface actively shields against pressure, which causes cellular damage and overflow. Escaping fruit juice is absorbed directly via the surface and sides while being captured in the core. The quick absorption of liquid prevents the formation of mold and delays microbiological growth. McAirlaid’s FruitPad provides consumers a clean, drip-free package extending the berries bright color, texture, sweetness and appearance.

With over 20 years of experience in making absorbent products, McAirlaid's consistently strives to create the right custom solution to exceed all of your food packaging needs.
