Keeping fruits, vegetables, and flowers fresh during storage and transport is a big challenge for farmers, exporters, and sellers. Long trips and changing conditions can make produce spoil quickly. While refrigeration and careful handling play a major role, one invisible culprit often accelerates spoilage despite these efforts—ethylene gas. Ethylene is a natural plant hormone that regulates ripening. Although it’s essential for the natural maturation of produce, excess ethylene during storage or transport can lead to premature ripening, softening, and decay. This is especially problematic for climacteric fruits like bananas, apples, avocados, and tomatoes, which produce and respond to ethylene more actively. This is where Ethylene Absorber : a breakthrough solution comes in. This is designed to trap and neutralize this gas before it causes harm. These ethylene absorbents have become essential tools for the post-harvest industry, extending shelf life, preserving quality, and reducing fo...
