Fruits and vegetables begin to ripen once they come in contact with ethylene gas - a nature induced hormone that acts as a signal for fruits to ripen.

This effect has been observed through many scientific and manual observations. A single ripening apple releases ethylene, thereby triggering and accelerating ripening of apple present in the vicinity.

Airocide is effective in containing and slowing the ripening process in fruits by eliminating ethylene from the atmosphere, as it effectively does when installed in various space shuttle missions, international space station and the largest wholesale and retail food service organization in the USA such as Super Value, Whole Foods Super Markets, Del Monte and others.

In space, Airocide has helped by preserving costly payload and on earth by protecting and extending the storage and shelf-life of perishables thereby saving millions of dollars in costs and revenue.

How AiroCide helps:
Extends the shelf-life of fruits and vegetables
Helps reduce waste in an ever-increasing green economy
Ensures hygiene and protection wherever perishables such as fruits are
handled or stored.
