The EU's Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR, Regulation (EU) 2025/40) takes full effect on 12 August 2026, replacing the 30-year-old Packaging Directive 94/62/EC with a single law that applies directly in all 27 member states — no national loopholes. It covers every package you ship into the EU, from the net around a navel orange to the drum holding juice concentrate. If your company exports fresh fruit, fruit juice concentrate, fruit and vegetable powder, canned fruit, or NFC puree to Europe, this regulation changes your packaging obligations on day one. The good news: most of the hardest rules are phased, and metal cans and glass are naturally well-positioned. The bad news: multi-layer flexible films (the workhorse of powder and aseptic juice) sit squarely in the regulator's crosshairs. This guide explains what bites on 12 August 2026, what lands in 2030, and how to keep your products on the shelf. Read More

Freeze-dried fruit and vegetable powders are produced through lyophilization — a low-temperature vacuum process where frozen water sublimates directly from ice to vapor, preserving up to 95% of the original nutrients, color, and flavor. This guide walks through the full 7-step production workflow — from raw material selection and rapid freezing to primary drying, secondary desorption, milling, and nitrogen-flushed packaging — and compares freeze drying with spray drying across cost, nutrient retention, solubility, and clean-label suitability. The global freeze-dried fruits and vegetables market reached approximately USD 100.9 billion in 2025 and is projected to grow at a 7.0% CAGR through 2036. For B2B buyers, we outline the key quality-control parameters to verify before sourcing, including moisture content (≤5%), water activity (≤0.3–0.5), particle size distribution, microbiological limits, and required certifications.

On August 19, 2026, the U.S. FDA's final rule lowering the minimum Brix of pasteurized orange juice from 10.5° to 10° takes effect — the first such change since 1963. In the Federal Register, FDA explicitly attributes the decline to citrus greening disease (HLB) and severe weather, stating that without a cure for HLB, neither orange production nor Brix levels will recover. Rabobank's 2026/27 outlook projects a 13% contraction in global industrialized orange juice supply, driven by Brazil's 12.9% crop decline and a 47.6% HLB incidence rate. This article traces the causal chain from orchard pathology to regulatory rewrite, examines what soil-health science can and cannot deliver against HLB, and presents FOGT's response from its organic navel orange orchards in Gannan — the world's largest navel orange producing region by planted area.
