Broccoli and Ice-Packing: Why Only PP Corrugated Can Handle the Hydro-cooling Process

Broccoli and certain leafy greens require “top-icing” or hydro-cooling to stay crisp during transport. This involves direct contact with crushed ice and freezing water. Paper-based boxes, even those with wax coating, eventually disintegrate under these conditions. MingPlastics’ Hydro-cooling Grade PP Corrugated Boxes are the only solution that thrives in wet, icy conditions.

Engineered for the Ice Chain

• Absolute Waterproof Reliability: Polypropylene is 100% waterproof. Our boxes maintain 100% of their structural strength while sitting in ice, ensuring your broccoli stays upright and protected.
• Precision Drain Holes: We design custom drainage patterns that allow melt-water to exit the box quickly, preventing the broccoli from sitting in stagnant water.
• Thermal Insulation: The twin-wall fluted core provides a layer of insulation, helping the ice last longer and keeping the produce at the optimal temperature.

Zero Chemical Migration

Our FDA-certified boxes ensure that no chemicals from the packaging enter the wash-water or the produce, guaranteeing the highest food safety for your consumers.
