Companies offer new produce totes

Macro Plastics and Calpine Containers have brought two new produce totes to market: the MacroTote 5-FV can achieve greater efficiencies when shipping any type of produce; the MacroTote 6-FV is designed to improve product quality, handling and storage capacity.

The MacroTote 5-FV is a single-piece, injection-molded, collapsible tote. Its lightweight construction and ergonomic handles allow for easier handling in the field. The patented MacroTote 6-FV has rounded corners and smooth surfaces to reduce damage during handling. “Swamp” grips on the underside of the tote allow workers to easily handle the totes during harvest and move product quickly into cold storage, according to the companies.

The new totes will be available across the United States from Macro Plastics and Calpine Containers’ distribution centers in California and Arizona. For more information, call 800-845-6555, or call Calpine at 559-519-7162.
