SAVE FOOD!
interpackInterpack 2011: Bizerba makes a positive contribution to the fight against the urgent problem of global food wastage (hall 14, booth C14) - The figures are frightening: Experts believe that over 70m tonnes of food is thrown away every year in the European Union alone. This kind of wastage is found along the entire supply chain: right at the start in the fields where the food is grown, during the manufacturing process, during transport and then of course in households. At the Interpack 2011 trade fair, the SAVE FOOD congress is therefore getting to grips with the issue of how different elements of the supply chain can make their own contribution to the fight against avoidable food wastage. Bizerba is also involved with the .BRAIN software family, the CWP Neptune check-weigher and the TTI system label (hall 14, stand C14).

EuroShopThe solution provider from Balingen fits out its promoters with label clothing from the designer Pia Fischer Labels – the little helpers in everyday life.
