Tosca, an innovator in reusable packaging and supply chain solutions, today announced the introduction of a breakthrough reusable plastic container (RPC) for packing, shipping and displaying individual cartons of eggs.

Featuring a revolutionary SmartWall™ design, the retail-ready package simplifies re-stocking and promises retailers less shrink from damaged goods, labor savings and less waste.

"We are extremely pleased that the feedback we've received indicates it is superior in design to anything currently available"

Additionally, eggs packed in the new Tosca containers cool almost 10 times faster than eggs in corrugated cardboard, according to an April 2014 study conducted by Sensitech - the leading provider of cold chain visibility solutions for tracking and monitoring temperature-sensitive products. The Sensitech study was conducted at the Chase, Kansas facility of Cal-Maine, the largest producer and distributor of fresh shell eggs in the United States.

Since eggs begin to deteriorate the moment they are laid, the faster they are cooled, the safer and better quality they are. Consistency in cooling rates and final temperature are vital for product quality and enhanced safety.

"Egg deterioration begins with moisture loss and the release of CO2 into the surrounding air. Refrigeration slows both of these processes thereby extending the shelf life of the egg," said Kenneth E. Anderson, Ph.D., Professor, Prestage Department of Poultry Science, North Carolina State University - who analyzed the cooling study results.

Tosca recently completed a successful launch of its new egg container with a major national supermarket chain. In addition to increased durability, benefits include:

* Better product protection resulting in less damage
* Innovative design with a simple, one-touch, drop-down front wall to reduce labor costs
* Efficient ventilation and faster cooling of packed eggs
* More sustainable package with less waste

"Tosca has a history of innovation dating back more than 50 years, and our new egg container is evidence that we continue to develop smarter solutions that drive customer value," said Eric Frank, President, Tosca. "We are extremely pleased that the feedback we've received indicates it is superior in design to anything currently available," he said.
