The appropriate venue for the fruit trade to showcase its advances is Fruit Logistica 2023. Whether it’s new fruit and vegetable kinds, eco-friendly packaging, data-driven production monitoring, or pest-resistant crop strains, trade visitors may learn about a variety of advances from February 8 to February 10 in Berlin.

Trade attendees and media representatives can get a preview of the solutions exhibitors at Fruit Logistica to have in store to address the current global concerns, such as climate change and resource limitations, in the run-up to the trade show. The top trade event for the global fresh produce industry, In the Spotlights, showcases a collection of more than 30 inventions, many of which are making their premiere on a global scale. There are German and English translations of the respective texts.

Innovative packaging techniques, for instance, support sustainability. A useful bucket constructed of Social Plastic® rPET, or plastics salvaged from ocean garbage, was created by Carton Pack. This improves the livelihoods of individuals who collect it and lessens environmental damage. The initiative’s program offers care and instruction. In contrast, Inkarta employs paper for its packaging, which is recyclable and created from renewable basic resources.

For instance, the Dutch company Hotraco demonstrates how precise data may increase production efficiency with its iHotraco Storage Data solution. Producers can store crops more easily with this technology, which also offers a constant data overview. Delphy Digital’s quality management solutions help increase greenhouse cultivation efficiency, which in turn supports crop yield. Users of DeltaTRAK record information on fresh fruit while it is being transported to the client in real-time. DeltaTRAK provides actors in the global supply chain with a comprehensive solution with data-driven decision-making capabilities through its FlashTrak Cloud Services. These and other technological advancements are making a significant dent in food waste.
