What is Ethylene?

Ethylene is a natural hormone found in vegetables that speeds up the ripening process of various foods. When fruits, vegetables, and flowers ripen, they release ethylene gas. However, this gas can also cause these same products to deteriorate quickly if they are exposed to it. To prevent this, both companies and individuals can use ethylene absorbers to extend the freshness of food and reduce waste caused by rapid deterioration on store shelves or in refrigerators.

This product is known globally as an ethylene absorber or a preservative for fruits, vegetables, and flowers. It is designed as a sachet for use in the packaging of agricultural products. The ethylene gas and microbes present in the air are converted into carbon dioxide and water in the nanometer channels of this product. As a result, the air is purified and free of ethylene gas and microbes before being returned to the environment.

Product introduction

Ethylene gas is a hormone released by these produce items after harvest, which accelerates their deterioration and spoilage. Ethylene absorbers are known as "ethylene scavengers" or "ethylene removers" in English. They are designed to control the ripening process and extend the shelf life of fruits, vegetables, and flowers by removing ethylene gas.
The ethylene absorber works by trapping and converting ethylene gas into carbon dioxide and water through nano-scale channels. This process purifies the air and eliminates ethylene gas and airborne microbes, thus creating a more suitable environment for preserving the freshness of product.
Ethylene absorbers are commonly used in packaging agricultural products to maintain their quality during storage and transportation. They are effective in preventing wrinkling, wilting, mold growth, rotting, discoloration, off-odors, sprouting, bitter taste in carrots, and citrus peel damage caused by ethylene gas.

Application

To use the ethylene absorber sachet, simply place the recommended number of sachets in the conventional corrugated boxes or export packing for fruits and vegetables. The sachet absorbs ethylene gas from the pack and creates a bacteria-free environment, extending the shelf life of fresh produce. The number of sachets required will depend on the type of produce and the amount of ethylene produced. Recommended dosages should be followed for optimal results.
