Hello all,
We are a packaging manufacturer. We supply shrink bags for meat products, winding the bags onto a core to make a roll of perforated bags.
We are looking to change our cores from plastic to cardboard, but i've been told vaguely that cardboard cores won't be allowed in the boning room/packing room, so if we change, our customers will not accept it.
Can anyone who works in a meat processing facility please confirm or deny this?
The idea has *apparently* been brought up with customers before, so i've been advised by the Account Manager not to bother asking again.
We did one have customer who requested cardboard cores to be used, so we did use them. I can't understand why that customer is "allowed" to use them and everyone else isn't...
Can someone please help me understand it?
Thank you in advance.
