Description
Fresh Vegetables, Fruits & Flowers face mechanical and chemical damage after harvesting. KIF Kiffy pads are the right solution to protect fruits from physical damage and also slow the ripening process naturally.
Fruits start to ripen after harvesting and during the ripening process release ethylene gas and water vapour. This ethylene gas when in the package increases the ripening rate of the fresh produce hence aggravating the ripening process resulting into faster rotting of the fresh produce. The ethylene gas and water vapour produced work as catalyst to the ripening process which in turn causes faster spoilage and microbial damage.
Apart of ethylene damage growers, exporters, importers and suppliers also face major loses due to improper packing practices. Lack of proper cushioning or improper alignment of paper frills, fiber sheets and thermocol in fruit boxes impose pressure on fruits surface, because of this fruits get de-shaped and also causes several other issues in packed fruits like black patches, fruit damage and overall fruit spoilage.
Keep It fresh Kiffy Pads can be easily placed with fresh fruits & vegetables in trays, crates and boxes or in boxes placed one over another during shipment. The pads work in a multiple ways to protect and extend shelf life of fresh produce.
