Dole is committed to its environmental goals, including the phase-out of fossil-fuel-based packaging. To achieve this, Dole is focused on developing a compostable packaging solution for its fruit bowls. As part of the transition, Dole has engaged Ubuntoo to assess alternative pasteurization technologies suitable for bio-based packaging. Ubuntoo conducted a comprehensive mapping of available solutions, identifying strategic options and potential partners based on process compatibility, quality standards, and operational requirements. Through rigorous testing, Dole has successfully identified a preferred partner, showcasing a remarkable 30% improvement in yield during testing phases.
