packaging
• Verpakking:
- Ongeveer 4,5 kg tomaten gelegd op een pakvel in een EPS-L kist.
Client has clarified "pakvel" as follows:
pakvel: is papier waarop de tomaten of de appels worden gelegd in de kist (is voorgevormd, naar de ronde vorm van die vruchten) – alviol in het FR
[think she means alvéole!]
You can picture it exactly, sort of egg box-like, but what do you call it in EN? Tomatoes in question are Coeur de Boeuf (beef tomatoes) so quite large (120-140 g each).

Comment: "Oddly, enough, that's what I was using while I waited for further explanation from the client. But then the specific description threw me. However, eventually agreed to use "moulded tray" to differentiate from another kind of tray mentioned in the same text. Found some useful support for that term as well. Thanks!"
