Key words 1 Custom printing
  In the era of intelligence, the pursuit of individuation has made the individuation of packaging a hot spot in the market.
    Custom printing - batch one
  See Box, one of the world's leading manufacturers of eco-friendly tableware, has announced its new multi-million dollar digital printing equipment for digitally printing dynamic and attractive patterns on its RiiqiCup brand Ingeo™ cold drink cups. In particular, with this digital printing technology, See Box can achieve batch by batch personalized printing. These cold drink cups are used for sporting and musical events, festivals and fairs, as well as public and private food venues.

   According to See Box, the cups are now being certified as compostable. SeeBox's investment in the latest Swiss digital printing technology adds a new dimension to cutlery, making it possible to increase the amount of compostable cups used worldwide and reduce the amount of plastic waste buried in landfills.
   See Box is one of the largest producers of Ingeo materials cups, bowls and LIDS, with 40 Illig thermoformers, 10 extruders and 10 presses, and believes this is the first time Ingeo bioplastic cold drink cup tableware has been digitally printed. The company conducted extensive research on existing technologies and found a digital printing technology expert at its Swiss supplier who shared quality and environmental goals. See Box and its partners worked together to achieve the desired result.
   GeorgePan, deputy general manager of See Box, said: "The use of tableware produced by Shingeo Bioplastics is increasing, which is a very good thing both environmentally and socially. Entering a new era of mass customization and truly vibrant patterns make these tableware even more appealing. We anticipate increased demand for the additional capabilities offered by this process." Pan explains that the high transparency and gloss inherent in Ingeo thermoformed products is ideal for demonstrating the vibrance and precision of digital printed works. To take full advantage of its new digital printing technology, SeeBox has also launched a new "V-Cup" series of Ingeo cups designed to maximize the print area on the cup. The V-Cup comes in 10,12,16,20, and 24 ounce sizes.
   With ordinary printing technology, each design requires a minimum order quantity, thus limiting the number of various display patterns. With digital printing, SeeBox customers can order the same number of cups, but can now come in a wide variety of designs, for example, each member of a sports team or a variety of celebrity prints. This ability to customize even batches can extend to special events, such as playoffs. SeeBox is now in the process of certifying the cups as compostable.
   With this new technology, SeeBox customers no longer have to pay for the cost of plate making, nor do they have to pay for large minimum orders. In general, the digital process wastes less ink, and there are also environmental advantages. There are no design or color restrictions for adopting the new process.
   Steve Davies, Director of Corporate Communications and Public Affairs at NatureWorks, a manufacturer of advanced Ingeo bioplastics, said: "We are proud to see this level of innovation in the production of Ingeo tableware. SeeBox has been a loyal partner of Ingeo for many years, constantly investing to keep its products ahead of the game."
  See Box has applied the latest advances in Swiss digital printing technology to cold drink cups that are not only brightly patterned, but also offer the ability for mass customization in batches. At the same time, this material has compostable properties and will produce significant environmental benefits.
   Key word 2 Low cost
  In the business field, cost is always an important competitiveness that can not be ignored, especially in the catering industry.
   With more and more people looking for healthy snack alternatives, the demand for high-quality packaged fresh-cut fruit has never been greater. But getting the right packaging solution is key.
   As one of the largest suppliers of fresh-cut Fruit in the United States, Simply Fresh Fruit offers an extensive product line, cut on-site - from oranges to mangoes, melons, strawberries and grapes, pineapples, papayas and more. EasyPak developed a low-cost packaging solution for Simply Fresh Fruit, a Los Angeles-based supplier of fresh-cut fruit.
   Simply Fresh Fruit initially uses imported two-piece containers at a price acceptable to customers. They soon found that imports were not doing well. It doesn't close properly and is difficult to fill and takes more time to pack, leading to high labor costs.
   EasyPak has developed a solution that focuses on properties that are easy to fill and tamper-proof to ensure closure. The success of the project is based on the precise cooperation between the two parties. EasyPak has an ongoing relationship with the customer - they come up with the concept and EasyPak provides the prototype. Based on listening and responding to the need for Simply Fresh, EasyPak tweaked the design and implemented improvements.
