HOW IT WORKS A Fresh Take on 1-MCP
1-MCP has revolutionized the produce industry, enabling fresher produce to reach more people in more places than ever. Recognizing the diverse needs of different types of produce, especially those that are more sensitive, we’ve taken the innovation a step further. We’ve developed a humidity-released approach that gradually delivers 1-MCP according to each fruit or vegetable’s unique respiration rate. This ensures that each type of produce receives the optimal amount of 1-MCP at just the right time, further enhancing freshness and quality.
1
Fruits and vegetables naturally respire as they age.
3
1-MCP gradually slows the ripening process to extend the life of produce.
2
Humidity triggers the HarvestHold Fresh sheet to gradually release 1-MCP.
