Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of packaging technology, and specifically relates to a foam fruit box. Background Technology

[0002] In the production, transportation, sale, or storage of agricultural products such as fruits and vegetables, it is often necessary to use a foam box with an ice plate inside to freeze and preserve the fruit. The cold air emitted by the ice plate and the insulation function of the foam box create a sealed and low-temperature environment inside the box, so that the fruits and vegetables can maintain their freshness during long-term storage and transportation.

[0003] A search revealed that Chinese patent application number CN202420825763.9 discloses a foam box for fruit storage, comprising a box body and a protective device.
