The banana is one of the oldest cultivated plants in the world. Botanically, it is a berry, belonging to the Musaceae family. Originally from tropical Asia, it has become widespread throughout the tropical and subtropical regions of the earth.
The banana plant develops a false trunk (pseudostem) composed of leaf sheaths, from the center of which there emerges the apical flower and fruit spike.
Bananas, which are very popular because of their high carbohydrate content (mainly as glucose) and because of their aromatic taste, are harvested all year round.
The banana spike is known as a bunch. A bunch is composed of a series of hands. The individual fruits are called fingers. The following terminology is used:
1 banana = 1 finger
5 – 7 fingers = 1 cluster
15 – 20 fingers = 1 hand
8 – 14 hands = 1 bunch (= 200 bananas)
Bananas are divided into the following varieties:
Dessert bananas, which are suitable for eating fresh (fleshy, sweet, flavorsome)
Baby bananas, a miniature variety of dessert banana, which has recently enjoyed ever greater popularity
Cooking bananas, which have to be cooked before eating (mealy, starchy, plantains)
Fiber bananas, which are used for obtaining fibers (abaca, Manila hemp)

Banding is the ecologically sensible packaging for bananas. A band holds bananas together and is an information carrier. There is also a solution for shelf life.
There are many ways to pack bananas. In exceptional cases, it may also make sense to pack bananas in plastic. The most common reasons for this are traceability, the distinction between organically and conventionally grown bananas or the longer shelf life and thus less food waste. Bands made of paper or recyclable film are usually still the better option.
Banding can not only be printed in advance and thus take over the branding, but also be dynamically blended with codes and data of all kinds and information about the producer during manual or fully automatic banding. Traceability is thus guaranteed.
Differently printed bands identify organically or conventionally grown bananas.
Did you know that the ripening process of bananas can be slowed down if the stalk is wrapped airtight with cling film? The film prevents the natural ripening gas ethylene from reaching other parts of the fruit and causing it to ripen too quickly.
