Fresh fruits and vegetables are highly perishable, and maintaining their quality from farm to table is a critical challenge for growers, distributors, and retailers. One of the most effective ways to preserve produce is by managing ethylene, a natural plant hormone that accelerates ripening. Two key solutions that have transformed post-harvest management are Filtro(S) De Etileno and Sachet(s) absorbedor(es) de etileno. Both are designed to control ethylene levels, reduce spoilage, and extend shelf life. Understanding Ethylene and Its Effects Ethylene is naturally produced by many fruits and vegetables as they ripen. While essential for the natural maturation process, excessive ethylene can cause premature ripening, spoilage, and financial losses. Produce such as bananas, avocados, apples, and tomatoes are particularly sensitive to ethylene accumulation. Without proper management, ethylene shortens shelf life, reduces marketability, and increases waste throughout the supply chain. ...

At BioXTEND, we recognise that ethylene gas plays a key role in post-harvest spoilage: it accelerates ripening, increases decay and shortens shelf life. Our mission is to provide cost-efficient, user-friendly and eco-friendly solutions to control ethylene levels and thereby protect the value of your fresh produce supply chain. Ethylene Filters The BXT Filtro(S) De Etileno (models such as BXT100, BXT75) are designed for high-volume, large-scale applications: cold storage rooms, refrigerated containers, trailers and pallets. They’re cylindrical single-use filters packed with a proprietary blend of active media to remove ethylene, bacteria and mould from the storage/transport atmosphere. Key features: compatibility with organic produce (certified under NOP/EU), non-toxic, eco-friendly exhausted residue that can be discarded or used as organic fertiliser. Simple installation: the filter is placed in the air-return area of the coo...
