Ingredients
FRESH FRUIT & VEGETABLES
“BREATHABLE” BIO-COATING
MODIFIED ATMOSPHERE
Effectively attached to the fruit surface, of which partial sealing is achieved, while still allowing optimal gas exchange that prevents anaerobic fermentation and generation of off-flavors over time
ATTRACTIVE & FLAVOURFUL FRUITS
The coating is tasteless, odorless, ultra thin and virtually undetectable by sensory evaluation, providing natural appearance and long lasting freshness as if just harvested
SUFRESCATOMATO™
SUFRESCACUCUMBER™
SUFRESCAPEPPER™
SUFRESCAMANGO™
SUFRESCAAVOCADO™
FRESH & DRY BULBS
BIO-FILM
INDIVIDUAL PACKAGE
Thin and transparent extra layer of edible film that envelops the bulb and mimics its natural look. Provides attractive and glossy bulbs that do not split apart
PESTS PROTECTION
Significant decrease in pests-related damages over months of storage
LONGER STORAGE LIFE
Individual modified atmosphere that slows down biomechanical process and reduces weight loss and degradation over long periods of time
GREATER CROP YIELD
Cloves stored coated produce a greater yield when planted
SUFRESCAGARLIC™
SUFRESCAONION™
MINIMALLY PROCESSED PRODUCE
SELECTIVE BIO-COATING
NOVEL WAY TO PRESERVE READY-TO-EAT FRESH FRUIT AND BERRY SNACKS
It is a straightforward method to create selective protective coating to treat only openings or “injured” areas on the surface of arils and berries. The formed coating is thin, transparent and essentially undetectable by our senses. It preserves product quality for longer and decreases serving decay caused by fluid exudation during storage
SUFRESCAPOMEGRANATE-ARILS™
YOU SHOULD KNOW
40-60% OF FRUIT & VEG PRODUCED WORLDWIDE ARE LOST OR WASTED
Causing significant economic damage from farm to household. Current food production is enough to feed the world twice, while one in nine people goes hungry
IT IS TRUE THAT PACKAGING IS HELPFUL, BUT AT WHAT COST?
Microplastic is increasingly found everywhere, from our oceans to our food
HOW DOES SUFRESCA HELP?
COATING THE IMPOSSIBLE
Sufresca develops innovative edible coatings that dramatically extend shelf life and reduce weight loss of fresh produce under changing conditions, while keeping them fresh from field to fork
Sufresca specializes in those commodities that are challenging to coat or for which exists no solution. Our formulations are optimal to various straightforward application techniques and seamless integration within any production operations, big as small
Our goal is to overcome technological and commercial barriers that hinder performance and implementation of edible coatings to all fresh produce around the world
