Growers
& Exporters

Potential for fewer deductions and higher grade-out quality, resulting in improved financial returns.

Retailers

Opportunity to increase on-shelf availability through increased days of life, while potentially reducing overall levels of waste. Potential to drive increased repeat purchasing due to improved produce condition.

Consumers

Trials across many crop types show that extra days of shelf-life are possible. Gain extra days of shelf-life at home. Enjoy naturally ripened, fully developed fresh produce at peak flavour.

Our Planet

By reducing food wastage, we can decrease GHG emissions and reduce the pressure on other resources such as fresh water and arable land.

Product
Design

Through a deep understanding of ethylene emittance and sensitivity levels across fresh produce cultivars, we're building a portfolio of products to manage ethylene in various settings.

Engagement
with industry

By working with growers, exporters and retailers, we take an all-encompassing  view of the ethylene management needs of the supply chain from farm to consumer.

Materials
Strategy

We embed our ethylene moderating technology into paper or plastic packaging materials. By doing this we simplify adoption and provide highly integrable solutions for the fresh produce industry.
We continue to explore and develop new products, bringing our technology into new applications.
