When a global player and a startup join forces the result is often a groundbreaking innovation.
That is the case with the partnership between AgroFresh and Strella, a specialist in sensor technology. Together, they have developed a technology that, using real-time data, monitors the ripeness of apples and pears in storage.
This allows customers to make data-driven decisions regarding their stocks and obtain information on the freshness and value of their stored produce. The result is a high level of quality with minimal disruption to supplies.
The new technology complements AgroFresh’s integrated digital FreshCloud™ platform which provides end-to-end data visibility and enables product quality monitoring at all points along the value chain.
