Johannes introduces 100% Pure Nature packaging without compromises

AGF-Holland has developed a unique and 100% environmentally friendly line of packaging and have called it “Johannes”. This innovative collection features eye-catching punnets and trays crafted from thin natural cardboard, complemented by a fully biodegradable band. Designed for both soft and hard fruits, the Johannes line meets the demands of retailers and supermarket chains seeking uncompromising packaging solutions. “It’s everything retailers want!” says Johannes Janssen, the visionary behind the brand. “The Johannes line embodies sustainability, freshness, and positivity.” Not only does this packaging look great, but it also provides exceptional protection, ensuring that the fruit arrives in stores in perfect condition.

The time is ripe for Johannes

“The time is ripe!” This vibrant slogan captures the essence of AGF-Holland as they charge ahead with the Johannes concept, eager to share its remarkable benefits with clients and potential partners in the retail sector. “Approximately seventy percent of our clients have already expressed interest in this innovative packaging solution,” Janssen reveals. “In practical terms, that means our products will soon grace the shelves of over twenty-five stores.” The Johannes brand not only highlights the sustainability of its packaging but also underscores the consistent quality of AGF-Holland’s offerings. With its natural design, the packaging beautifully showcases the freshness of fruits and vegetables, making it a perfect fit for today’s eco-conscious consumers.

A recognizable and biodegradable band

The lightweight trays and containers crafted from natural cardboard boast a distinctive identity, each adorned with an easily recognizable band featuring the signature Johannes design. AGF-Holland opted for a printed Kraft paper band, celebrated not only for its striking natural look but also for its fully biodegradable properties. This band securely holds the fruit in place, eliminating any risk of damage or shifting. Thanks to the advanced banding machine, it adeptly accommodates slight variations in fruit sizes, ensuring the band remains perfectly positioned and securely fastened. Moreover, smart printing technology allows for variable information to be printed directly onto the band during the packaging process, eliminating the need for additional labels and providing a truly flexible solution. The punnets are available in various sizes, with larger options designed to accommodate heavier products—all while maintaining their commitment to sustainability.
