For centuries, manufacturers and sellers of fruit cannot find the answer to the question - how to increase their very short shelf life.
But it seems that in Malaysia they found a solution to this problem - Stixfresh developed a unique sticker that can extend the freshness and quality of fruits for two weeks.
The stickers made from organic materials are suitable for different fruits - apples, pears, avocados, pitaya, kiwi, mango, citrus fruits, according to zerno-ua.com. The composition contains sodium chloride and beeswax. The sticker applied to the fruit shortens the ripening process by removing ethylene and also prevents mold growth.
It should be noted that last year another office was opened in the USA, which is the first step of Stixfresh to enter the Western market.
In the future, the company will develop stickers to extend the shelf life of vegetables and berries.
