Avery Dennison™ Collaborates with Major Grower to Design New Pineapple Tagging Tool
Designed to meet the unique tagging needs of pineapple and produce growers, the new Industrial System 1000-II Pneumatic Tool is the company’s most lightweight and advanced produce tagging tool in the market place.
Framingham, MA (PRWEB) February 9, 2005 -- Avery Dennison™ Fastener Division, a global leader in the design and manufacture of fastening products, introduces the new Industrial System 1000-II Pneumatic tool for tagging pineapples and other produce. The new tool was developed in collaboration with a major pineapple grower to meet the unique tagging needs of pineapple and produce growers. Fastening a tag to the crown of a pineapple and other produce allows growers to communicate important product information and helps to strengthen brand recognition.
The Industrial System 1000-II Pneumatic tool is the only tool of its kind on the market developed for this function. The tool tags pineapples quickly while providing maximum mobility for ease-of-use and increased productivity. The design incorporates lightweight alloy materials with ergonomic balance for long life, better operator control and less operator fatigue.
“From working with a major grower, we understand that tagging is an essential way for growers to build brand loyalty and increase sales,” says Kristen Deng, product manager, Avery Dennison. “We’ve taken that knowledge and developed a tool that simplifies the tagging process by combining speed, efficiency and reliability.”
The Industrial System 1000-II Pneumatic tool is designed with customers and the operational environment in mind. A low profile feed knob helps prevent marking or damaging the produce during the tagging process. The knob is also spring loaded to make clearing the feed path easy. The tool uses fasteners that are available in a range of sizes and colors in rolls of 1000 to reduce load time.
