Understanding Ethylene Gas and Its Impact Ethylene gas is naturally produced by fruits, vegetables, and flowers as part of their growth and ripening process. While ethylene is essential for ripening, excessive accumulation in storage or transit environments can lead to premature spoilage, reduced shelf life, and significant economic losses for growers, distributors, and retailers. For example, a batch of bananas stored alongside apples can ripen too quickly due to elevated ethylene levels, resulting in wastage before reaching the end consumer. To combat these challenges, the use of ethylene control technologies, such as ethylene filter and ethylene sachets, has become an industry standard. These tools are particularly valuable in controlled storage environments and long-distance transportation, ensuring that fresh produce maintains its quality and appeal for extended periods. The Role of Ethylene Filters Ethylene filters are devices designed to remove ethylene gas from t...
