Plastic Blueberry Packaging Solutions

Reusable Corrugated Plastic Containers Built for Harvest, Transport & Market Display

Cool Seal USA provides high-performance plastic blueberry packaging designed for growers, packers, and distributors who need containers that outperform traditional cardboard produce trays in wet, cold, and high-use environments.

Our corrugated plastic blueberry containers are manufactured from 3mm fluted polypropylene (PP) and engineered to deliver long-term durability, moisture resistance, and professional presentation—while remaining 100% recyclable as PP5 rigid plastic at the end of their service life.

From early-morning harvest in dew-covered fields to repeated trips to farmers markets and cold storage, Cool Seal’s plastic blueberry containers are built to last season after season.

Blueberry Packaging Designed for Real Harvest Conditions

Blueberries are commonly harvested in damp conditions, packed in coolers, and handled repeatedly throughout the season. Unlike wax-coated cardboard trays that absorb moisture and weaken over time, Cool Seal’s plastic containers:

  • Do not absorb water

  • Will not soften, warp, or delaminate

  • Maintain structural integrity in wet fields, coolers, and transport

  • Resist mold, chemicals, and moisture

  • Remain lightweight and easy to handle

You can take our containers directly into the field during early-morning dew without damage—then reuse the same containers for storage, transport, and retail display throughout the season.

Material & Construction Specifications

All Cool Seal plastic blueberry containers are manufactured using the same proven construction standards:

  • Base Material: 3mm fluted polypropylene (PP)

  • Standard Colors: White, blue, or black

  • 100% Waterproof

  • UV-stabilized

  • Melt point: 350°F

  • Edges: Heat-sealable if required

  • Chemical, moisture, and mold resistant

  • Lightweight yet rigid

These containers are designed to withstand repeated washing, sanitizing, and handling without losing strength or appearance.

Printing & Customization Options

Cool Seal plastic blueberry containers offer flexible branding options while maintaining durability:

  • One-color flexographic printing

  • Any PMS color

  • UV inks

  • Half-tone shading available

  • UV-stabilized printed graphics

This allows growers and packers to maintain a clean, professional brand presentation that holds up through moisture, cold storage, and repeated reuse.

Minimum Order Quantities (MOQ)

  • Stock material MOQs as low as full pallet quantities

  • Approximately 350 units per pallet

This makes reusable plastic blueberry packaging accessible for both large operations and smaller growers transitioning away from disposable trays.

Reusability & Long-Term Value

Cool Seal’s corrugated plastic containers are built for long service life:

  • Customers report up to 200 turns per container

  • Many growers use the same boxes for multiple seasons

  • No degradation from moisture or repeated cleaning

  • Maintains shape, strength, and appearance over time

Over multiple harvest cycles, reusable plastic containers often provide a lower total cost of ownership than single-use cardboard trays.

Label Adhesion Recommendations

For best results on polypropylene containers:

  • Use labels designed for low surface energy (LSE) plastics

  • Polypropylene (BOPP) labels are recommended

  • Pair with all-temperature permanent acrylic adhesives

  • Ideal for cooler and wet environments

Proper label selection ensures reliable adhesion without peeling or failure during handling and refrigeration.

Why Plastic Blueberry Containers Are Better Than Cardboard Produce Trays

Compared to wax-coated cardboard trays, Cool Seal’s plastic blueberry containers offer clear advantages:

Lightweight

Corrugated plastic provides strength without added weight, making handling easier for field crews and vendors.

Durable

Unlike cardboard, plastic does not collapse, tear, or weaken when exposed to moisture, refrigeration, or repeated use.

Hygienic

Plastic containers can be cleaned and sanitized between uses without degrading—ideal for food handling environments.

Wet-Environment Performance

Early morning dew, washdowns, and cooler condensation won’t damage the container or compromise product presentation.

Reusable & Long-Lasting

Designed for multiple seasons, reducing replacement costs and waste compared to single-use trays.

Professional Presentation

Maintains shape, color, and branding throughout the season—delivering a cleaner, more professional appearance at market.

Fully Recyclable

Reusable and recyclable as PP5 rigid plastic, unlike wax-coated cardboard trays, which are often not recyclable.
