During the past three decades,
Trade Fixtures pioneered the production of fabricated
acrylic bulk bins. In 1998, the firm introduced its patented
line of injection molded bins, which helped to render
acrylic technology obsolete, virtually overnight. Trade
Fixtures was the nation's first, leading bulk bin manufacturer
certified by the National Sanitary Foundation (NSF).
Today it retains a client roster that includes leading
retailers and distributors worldwide.
Newleaf Designs, a Chanhassen,
Minnesota-based supplier of bulk food dispensing and
display systems, was recently certified by the NSF for
its complete line of Scoop Bins, Gravity Feed Bins and
Merchandising Components. Newleaf Designs believes that
buying and selling in bulk furthers its commitment to
preserving the earth and conserving its resources. The
firm has created smartly designed bulk food dispensing
and display systems that are practical, flexible and
durable.
Based on recent studies,
bulk foods is forecasted to become one of the fastest
growing segments within the grocery industry over the
next decade. Display Technologies' subsidiaries have
created injection-molded technology that revolutionized
the manufacture and design of bulk bin displays with
a multitude of benefits: increased profit margin at check-out;
improved customer-friendliness; greater design and flexibility
with 100 percent modularity and attractive merchandising
features; improved durability; enhanced gravity feed
stock rotation and loading capabilities; and easier maintenance.
