NEWS Our fruit and vegetable packaging is produced exclusively with wood from wood arboriculture, mainly poplar ( more info ). The purpose of arboriculture from wood unlike forestry is the maximization of the production of the wood material, which is totally removed at the economically and commercially optimal moment. But why should we prefer wood to plastic or cardboard? The Assoimballaggi association has drawn up a list of features at this link . We do not treat wood from tropical forests or protected areas, but only from cultivated poplar groves. Since 11 December 2006 we have been manufacturers of treated packaging compliant with the requirements of the IPPC / FAO ISPM-15 standard and which, thanks to the Wood-Cork Services Consortium, we are authorized to use the FITOK brand . In order to address the issue of phytosanitary certification attached to export goods, the IPPC issued in March 2002 this ISPM-15 standard dedicated to the regulation of treatments for wooden packaging intended for international trade. The FAO decision assumes particular importance because, in addition to defining the context with precision and identifying the most effective solutions, it represents the awareness of an aspect that has assumed considerable importance in the context of the protection of the world's woodland and forestry heritage.
