Jute Bags

Jute bags play a crucial role in the food storage process within the soft commodity supply chain, in particular for products that we specialise in such as coffee, grains and pulses. Jute is biodegradable and sustainable, making it an environmentally responsible choice in the food industry - something we value highly.

FIBC / Bulk Bags

Bulk bags, also known as Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers, are essential tools in the storage and transportation of soft commodities. Their large capacity helps to optimise storage space and enabling efficient handling and transport. The versatility and reusability of bulk bags also make them a cost-effective and environmentally friendly option.

Loose Bulk

Handling loose, bulk soft commodities, such as cocoa beans, requires careful attention to ensure product quality and prevent contamination. Cocoa beans are handled and stored using custom equipment and processes to protect them from damage, moisture and pests. We ensure the beans reach their destination in optimal condition for processing.

Boxes & Cartons

In the food industry, the proper storage of boxes and cartons is vital to prevent damage to packaging and the products inside. Boxes and cartons are kept in dry, clean and well-ventilated areas to protect against moisture, pests and contamination. Our effective storage systems, such as shelving units and palletised stacking, help ensure that your products are well organised and their quality is maintained at all times.
