#THANK YOU
During this difficult time of emergency for so many people in the world, we would like to express our closeness to all the health personnel and to the key workers that every day, in the frontline, face the battle against Covid-19 with dignity and deep dedication. As INFIA, we feel extremely proud of our team for having continued to work and guarantee the fruit and vegetable procurement process, but above all for having cooperated on a significant solidarity project. For the past week, the production of over 5000sqm of sheet of RPET has been donated by our plant Infia Plastic to the manufacturing of protective screens. Thanks to all our employees who, with commitment and seriousness, have made it possible to improve the conditions of operators and professionals of great value in these days.
INFIA is betting everything on the environment with 100% RPET
After many years of effort and huge investment in machinery and R&D, Infia is proud to announce that the all the PET production lines in Italy and Spain will be converted from polyethylene (PET) to 100% recycled (R-PET). This will provide a type of packaging that has the same transparency and resistance as the one obtained from virgin raw material and that, at the same time, guarantees perfect sustainability at every level, dramatically reducing the environmental impact. In fact, R-PET 100% is environmentally sustainable, as it uses only recycled materials; it is also economically sustainable, as the difference of cost compared to the usual virgin raw material is moderate, and finally it is sustainable with respect to food safety, thanks to the certified process of recycling of post-consumer waste materials.
F concept
Side Ventilation
Infia has created and developed a new side ventilation system called “F concept”. Good aeration of the tray allows for more rapid pre-cooling of produce and so slows down the ripening process of the fruit, ensuring a longer shelf life. The holes on the side also permit the escape of ethylene vapours naturally produced by fermentation of the fruit.
