    Why use RYPEN Pads?

    Short life, high value products like fresh berries, cut fruit and Tenderstem® benefit significantly from targeted ethylene control in pack.

    Dual Purpose

    Simultaneously reduces moisture and ethylene levels, which are two key causes of over-ripeness and deterioration in short shelf-life fresh produce.

    Reduce Food Waste

    Reduces in-store and at home food waste with better tasting, longer lasting fresh produce.

    Increase Shelf-Life

    Increased shelf-life, resulting in higher margin potential and reduced stock management problems associated with food wastage.

    • Fresh-cut fruit in-store
      wastage reduced by up to 50%
