SmartFresh™ by AGROFRESH has long been providing real advantages for growers, packers, retailers and consumers of a wide variety of fruits and vegetables. The award-winning technology’s active ingredient, 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP), is like ethylene, a naturally occurring hormone that causes fruit to ripen. SmartFresh™ interacts with ethylene-sensitive sites in the fruit to manage its response to internal and external ethylene sources. This puts the ripening process “on hold” so that softening and over-ripening occur much more slowly.
