Ideabrill – the original

A registered trademark

It was the first fresh-preserving packaging that has been placed on the market, revolutionising the food industry. It’s still the most imitated one in its category.

This ‘magic’ packaging stems from a challenge/provocation by a big name in the large retailer industry, as well as thanks to Giuseppe Ortolani’s (Esseoquattro’s founder) brilliance. It’s smart packaging enabling to keep unchanged food organoleptic characteristics longer than traditional packaging and in a natural way, thanks to its special formula.

It’s therefore suitable for packaging cold cuts, meat, fish, as well as baked and leavened products.

WRAPPING

Our unique and original formula

The Ideabrill formula aimed to give the large retailer industry paper packaging capable of extending food shelf life in a natural way.

How is all this possible?

It’s a wrapping combined with film having an aluminium vacuum coating enabling to act as a barrier blocking light and UV rays.
Ideabrill is made of long-fibre blank paper, enabling us to reduce paper weight while keeping it resistant and performing.

The fresh-preserving formula keeps unchanged food organoleptic characteristics, slowing down deterioration.
Our scientific partner QuaSial, that is the Food Quality and Safety Group at the University of Camerino, tested Ideabrill on several types of food, ranging from meat, through cold cuts and cheese, to baked products, and certified the positive effects on products’ shelf life.

‘Products’) supplied by Esseoquattro Spa (henceforth referred to as the ‘Supplier’).
All contracts concluded by the Supplier are therefore governed by these sales general conditions, which form an integral part of every
Supplier’s proposal, order and order confirmation (hereinafter referred to as ‘Customer Commitment’) to any legal or natural person interacting with the Supplier, hereinafter referred to as the ‘Customer’.
Le presenti condizioni generali di vendita non sono modificabili ne derogabili tra le parti se non per iscritto.

2) CONTRACT CONCLUSION
With the aim of concluding the contract, the Supplier makes an offer, which is sent to the Customer per email. If the Customer accepts the offer, the Supplier draws up the CUSTOMER COMMITMENT (hereinafter referred to as the ‘CC’), which is sent to the Customer, who sahll be responsible for checking the accuracy of the data indicated therein and promptly notifying the Customer of any inaccuracies.
If nothing is notified by the Customer to the Supplier within two days after having received the CC, the order shall be deemed accepted and the contract concluded.
In that case, the delivery will be made operational, without the need to receive further notifications by the Supplier.
It is understood that the acceptance, even tacit, of the offer and/or CC by the Customer shall always be deemed to include these general sales conditions.
Should the CC’s acceptance be conditional, i.e. should it be received by the Supplier after the expiry of the commitment validity period, or should it not fully comply with the commitment content itself, it shall be in the nature of a counter-proposal.
If the Customer, after having accepted the CC, requests changes in terms of product quantity, quality, measurements or technical characteristics, these will be renegotiated. In any case, changes or additions occurring after having accepted the CC will require to issue and sign a new commitment replacing the original one.
In any case, every sales contract shall be concluded at the Supplier’s premises.
In the event of any any discrepancy between the provisions contained in the CC and those contained in these general sales conditions, the CC shall prevail.

3) COMPLAINTS, CLAIMS AND RESPONSIBILITY

Upon product receipt, the Customer shall verify the integrity of the packages and the quantitative and qualitative correspondence with what is reported in the accompanying document.
In the event of discrepancies, differences, anomalies or damage, it shall be the Customer’s responsibility to sign the transport document ‘subject to control’ by noting the reason and precise condition of the goods and having the carrier sign it.

Any complaints do not entitle the Customer to suspend expected contractual payments. Unless otherwise agreed, any returns are to be agreed and made in the original packaging.

4) SAMPLES

Samples sent by the Supplier are only indicative of the product quality offered by the Supplier. Any differences between the product received and the sample(s) cannot give rise to complaints, unless ‘as sample’ is expressly stated in the order commitment.

Products are protected with secondary packaging (paper/film) to ensure compliance with the principles of hygiene and safety for food use (also depending on their primary packaging).
A label identifying pallet content and an item sample is affixed on each pallet for faster product identification.
In case of discrepancy between these two elements, the label shall always prevail.
EPAL pallets must be returned during exchange in the same condition they were delivered.
If EPAL pallets – owned by the Supplier – are not returned, or are returned damaged, they will be charged to the Customer in the invoice at the market price, as communicated by the Supplier to the Customer each time.

– Constant temperature between 8 °C and 30 °C;
