R-BAG will continue to work closely with Andras Kovacs, Sales and Marketing Manager at DuPont, who looks after market development in this part of Europe. “We are very pleased to formally confirm our association with R-BAG whose appointment is instrumental in our mission of achieving a seamless global distribution network for Tyvek Air Cargo Covers," he says.

R-BAG was appointed on the strength of its presence in Central Europe where it is active in all the main markets including Hungary, Poland, Romania and the Czech Republic. Sales growth is a key focus for R-BAG as DuPont strives to emulate the success it is enjoying in other markets with its class-leading Tyvek product. "This appointment extends our sales capacity to embrace all the growth regions in Central East Europe and we are confident that the young, enthusiastic and dynamic team at R-BAG will maximise our opportunities," adds Andras.

Tyvek Air Cargo Covers are used to provide thermal protection for temperature-sensitive products during the ground handling and air transportation phases of distribution. R-BAG is already working on cargo cover trials with a number of local customers that are flying temperature-sensitive products such as chocolate and perishables in and out of the region.

Speaking on the R-BAG stand at the recent Air Cargo Europe 2015 trade show in Munich, Ferenc Kovacs, Owner of the R-BAG Group, commented; “R-BAG is very pleased to be working alongside DuPont, an organisation with a global reputation for research-based products and solutions. I am confident that our strong market connections and specialist logistics expertise will be a decisive factor in penetrating the key markets of Central East Europe."

Specifically engineered to address the threat of cold chain breaks during air transit – when your perishable and temperature sensitive products are at their greatest risk for temperature excursions – DuPont™ Tyvek® Cargo Covers are used by pharmaceutical companies, perishables distributors, 3PLs and airlines worldwide because they offer proven performance with real benefits.
 

PROVEN PERFORMANCE   

Validated in a wide variety of applications worldwide, Tyvek® Cargo Covers offer advanced multi-threat protection at an affordable price. Tyvek® Cargo Covers provide excellent protection against:

• Temperature excursions by shielding your products from solar radiation and extreme ambient temperatures – hot and cold.
• Physical hazards including rain, snow and insects.
• Harmful gases and vapors, condensation damage and biological threats(1) by allowing gases and vapors to pass through the covers without compromising the cover’s ability to function as an effective barrier to physical hazards.
• Theft or tampering by masking your products from view, with the option for additional security with a tamper-evident installation.
   

REAL BENEFITS

• Lower risk of losses and brand injury resulting from cold chain breaks with an affordable, effective passive protection solution
• Enhance revenue by reducing losses and maintaining quality and efficacy through the cold chain
• Reduce cost associated with losses, excursion management, secondary packaging and shipping
• Easy to use lightweight covers install or remove in as little as one minute
• Simple to use covers install and function effectively without complicated training and require no return logistics

Tyvek® Cargo Covers are used to protect pharmaceuticals, chemicals, inks, and a variety of perishable products including fruits, vegetables, plants and flowers, dairy products and more. Tyvek™ Cargo Covers have been validated by pharmaceutical manufacturers in applications subject to revised European Good Distribution Practice (GDP) guidelines.
 

(1)Tyvek® Cargo Covers allow your products to “breathe”, allowing O2 to permeate to support normal respiration of perishable products, while allowing harmful gases such as CO2 and ethylene to vent through the covers (which can help to prevent anaerobic respiration). Additionally, Tyvek® Cargo Covers have been shown to reduce reconditioning times vs film-based products such as metallized bubble wrap covers and help to maintain high humidity environments for respiring perishable products vs no protection, while lowering the likelihood of condensation vs film-based products such as metallized bubble wrap covers.
