Schütz will be displaying its Info-ID system at this year's APPEX, which it says offers accessibility to even more product and application-specific information. This is a QR code on the existing label that is attached to every intermediate bulk container (IBC) labelling plate.

Users can scan the Schütz Info-ID with any internet-enabled mobile device and are automatically directed to the individual product page on the company’s website. Alternatively, this page can also be accessed manually by entering the alphanumeric code provided in plain text under the QR code of the ID on the website.

The product page contains plenty of additional information, such as the respective packaging specification, brochures, leaflets and data sheets as well as guides and videos in several languages. On the dedicated page for each IBC users of the Schütz Info-ID can send technical and commercial enquiries direct to the Technical Customer Service or the Schütz sales team.

At APPEX 2024, the Schütz team will be on hand to discuss the benefits and applications of the Info-ID system, as well as its Product Stewardship Award winning bulk packaging solutions, including the Schütz OC PE drum, a high performance open head drum that has newly joined the groups extensive portfolio of intermediate bulk containers. 

Visit Schütz at Stand E015. APPEX is taking place on 12-15 March at the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre. Free registration is open now.

Food & Drink Business

A national network for young grape and wine professionals has been launched, set to foster the next generation of winemakers, viticulturists, cellar door staff, wine judges and other roles in Australia’s wine sector.

A new bill was introduced to Parliament on 19 November, which offers a framework for regulating the sale or importation of organic goods in Australia, and stronger opportunities for exporting organic products.

The Senate Economics Committee has rejected the Food Donations Bill that proposed a tax offset for companies donating excess food to food relief agencies rather than dumping it. While the bill had the potential to deliver the equivalent of 100 million meals to food relief organisations, the committee said it had “serious concerns” including the bill’s “generous” tax concessions. Food relief agencies and social welfare organisations have questioned the committee’s decision to reject the bill outright rather than make recommendations for amendments.
