International packaging and paper group Mondi has joined with Mexican corrugated packaging company Cartro to produce sustainable and humidity-resistant avocado packaging. The new packaging, Bravocado, reduces food waste by withstanding long-distant transportation.

According to Mondi’s press release, 14% of the world’s food is lost in transit thanks to inadequate storage and transportation. Bravocado is designed to withstand humid conditions and is recyclable and 18% lighter than existing solutions. It is also paraffin-free, enabling Cartro to save costs by running higher corrugator speeds.

Cartro CEO Juan Javier Gonzalez said: “Our company is the biggest independent corrugator in Mexico and known for reliability and quality. Thus, when we decided to enter a new market, we needed to be able to stick to our guiding principle of ‘quality on time’. We wanted the new packaging to be a quality reference point, so we joined forces with Mondi to develop a lightweight corrugated box that can withstand the challenges of long haul transport in humid environments.”
