Packaging is an important component in delivering quality eggs to our clients. Nature has given the egg a natural package - the shell. Despite its relative strength, the egg is an extremely fragile product and even with the best handling methods, serious losses can result from shell damage.
Economical marketing generally requires that eggs be protected by the adoption of specialized packaging and handling procedures. Our packing is high standard in most convenient sizes and styles for both home and commercial usage.
Packaging protects the eggs from: micro-organisms, such as bacteria; loss of moisture; tainting; temperatures that cause deterioration; and possible crushing while being handled, stored or transported We have many different types of egg packages, which vary both in design and packaging material used.
Type 1
We pack eggs in clear packages that are smaller and specific for retail sale. Each package can hold from two to 30 eggs. The transparent packages are a reflection of cleanliness and quality.
Type 2

Packed in the filler tray. Filler trays are made of wood pulp moulded to accommodate the eggs. They are constructed so that they can be stacked one on top of the other and can also be placed in boxes ready for transport. Filler trays also offer a convenient method for counting the eggs in each box, without having to count every single egg. Usually the standard egg tray carries 30 eggs. Therefore, if a box holds five trays, for example, the box has a total of 10 eggs (30 x 5 = 150).
Type 3: Eggs are packed in small paperboard cases and cover them with plastic film. Egg cases are developed from polystyrene. The advantages ofusing polystyrene are superior cushioning and protection against odours and moisture. The package is also resistant to fungus and mould growth.
Type 4

This is the common packing trays with yellow yolk eggs. It contains 30 eggs per tray.
