Greencell has developed, with the packaging specialist Coveris, a new system able to extend the in-store shelf life of pre-ripened avocados by two days. This technique is based on the combined use of a UV disinfection treatment (short-wavelength UV-C), followed by packaging in a controlled atmosphere. Avocados with this innovative system are currently sold by Tesco and Waitrose.
