Company Summary

Peer-Reviewed scientific research at MIT and Tufts (Marelli, Nature) generated an IP protected biomaterial coating that doubles shelf life of perishable products (fruits, vegetables, proteins, flowers).

The biopolymer coating is natural, biodegradable, odorless, in the form of a soluble powder that can be sprayed on products. It acts as a protective shield reducing exchange of gasses (CO2, O2, Ethylene) and water vapors, thus preventing decay.
