Ravenwood Packaging will be exhibiting at Fruit Attraction 2026 in Madrid where visitors can discover how linerless technology is helping fresh produce brands create more sustainable, eye-catching and retail-ready packaging formats.

Taking centre stage will be Ravenwood’s 5000L Standard Fruit Machine and 5000L Automatic Fruit Machine, designed for applying linerless fruit lids to fresh produce packs. Both systems enable growers, packers and retailers to move away from traditional plastic flow wrap while delivering premium, high-impact packaging that stands out on shelf.

The flexibility of Ravenwood’s 5000L technology has helped support a number of industry-leading fresh produce packaging innovations, including the launch of new paper-based pack formats for major brands. Recent projects have demonstrated how linerless fruit lids can replace plastic packaging while maintaining pack integrity, improving shelf appeal and providing enhanced branding opportunities through high-quality graphics and print.

From Zespri’s new kiwifruit pack launch to Sassy’s bold New Zealand apple packaging for Tesco UK, and the UK’s first linerless six-pack apple format, Ravenwood’s technology has enabled brands to introduce distinctive, recyclable packaging solutions that meet changing consumer expectations while supporting efficient packing operations.

Also on display will be the Nobac 1500 linerless top and base labeller, designed to apply high-quality linerless labels to modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) trays for fresh produce. By eliminating the traditional release liner (backing paper), the Nobac 1500 helps reduce packaging waste, increases label reel capacity, minimises changeovers and improves line efficiency. With accurate, high-speed application and excellent print quality, the system enables producers to enhance pack presentation while supporting more sustainable packaging operations.

Visitors to Stand 8B28 can meet the Ravenwood team and see how linerless technology is helping fresh produce businesses reduce plastic, create standout retail-ready packs and deliver innovative packaging solutions for today’s market.
