GROW QUALITY

 

The label "GROW Quality" is given to wood packaging that successfully passes the requirements of the  "GROW Quality" Quality System Technical Regulation

The  "GROW Quality" Quality System Technical Regulation it has been developed from a combination of AENOR standards for fruit and vegetable packaging and approved packaging testing methods, which establishes standards of quality in design and manufacture of fruit and vegetable packaging.

The granting of the certificate and the label "GROW-Quality" on the package becomes an added value to the packer, because it ensures that the crates have been manufactured in accordance with the requirements reflected in the Technical Regulations, and therefore comply with compression, flexing bottom, stacking, and vibration tests indicated therein, and carried out by AIDIMA (Technological Institute of furniture, wood, packaging and related).

Technical Regulation "GROW QUALITY"



download file

 
The main action of GROW Quality System is based in packaging technical audits, carried out by AIDIMA (Technological Institute of furniture, wood, packaging and related) by conducting tests based on the UNE 49,705: 2002
This standard presents a guide to the tests which fruit and vegetable wooden packaging may be subject, in order to assess their resistance to the various efforts they may experience during transport or storage
   
 

COMPRESSION AND STACKING TESTING USING COMPRESSION TESTS MACHINE.
According to UNE-EN ISO 12048

 

This test simulates the maximum compression that can resist a fruit crate. Samples are considered suitable should they meet the following value of compressive strength:> = 3,500 kg

   
 

STACKING TESTING USING STATIC LOAD.
According to UNE-EN 22234

This test simulates the maximum compression of use, according to the weight to contain and the stacking height. The result is the measurement of the deflection of the crate when subjected to the given load. The maximum deflection <= 5% of the height of the crate, given that such deflection does not exceed 10 mm.

   
 

VIBRATION TESTING OF A LOW FIXED RATE.
According to UNE-EN 22247

This test simulates vibration produced in the transport of fruit and vegetable crates. Samples are considered suitable that after the tests, maintain verticality and do no show breaks or deformation.

   
 

DETERMINATION OF STATIC BENDING OF THE BOTTOM.
According to UNE 49706
 
This test measures the maximum deflection the load exerts on the crate bottom. Samples are considered suitable when they meet the next value of deflection: for formats of base 20 x 30 cm <= 2 mm, and for the rest of formats <= 8 mm
