Polymer Logistics Wicker-Look Crates Well-Suited For Bakery Merchandising

Riverside, CA: Polymer Logistics, a leader in retail ready packaging solutions, is once again pushing the envelope by launching new series of reusable plastic containers designed to look like they are made from Wicker. The Wicker-Look RPC, with its attractive appearance that enhances merchandising in the retail aisle, follows the first-to-market Polymer Logistics Wood Grain RPC series, which started the trend of non-industrial containers. They will be available in all standard sizes in Europe and other markets by the third quarter of 2016.

“The Wicker-Look RPC is a groundbreaking solution that will improve the shopper experience, particularly in the bakery industry, and result in sales lift for our retail users. New merchandising opportunities are limited only by the marketer’s and store manager’s imagination,” said Gideon Feiner, President & CEO, Polymer Logistics.

“This latest move away from industrial crates is the result of our work with several retailers around the world who wanted to merchandise bakery products, which have long been displayed in rattan wicker crates. As always, we’re passionately supporting our retailer and supplier customers with the latest and best products and services.”

Polymer Logistics Wicker-Look RPCs have the ‘Active Lock’ system that secures the containers when erected but allows panels to fold easily and quietly when lock is released. It is foldable and stackable to maximize truck and store space, and is lightweight for easy handling. The RPCs are more environmentally sustainable than traditional packaging and offer significant cost savings when compared to disposable boxes. They are compatible with the Polymer Logistics pallet and dolly line for easy maneuverability and placement on retail floor, and are made of an easy-to-clean material that resists moisture, acids, fats, solvents, insects and fungi.
