Fresh fruit, vegetables and juices with salmon, white fish and chicken

Edible preservation

Freshness has
a longer future.

Edible protection. Original quality.

More freshness.
Less loss.

Preservation should protect what makes food worth eating. Our food-derived coatings help retain freshness, texture and taste through storage and handling.

We develop formulations around each food—with applications already tested in seafood, fruits and vegetables.

Through the final observation

Study notes & interpretation

Source: Singapore Aquaculture Technologies product validation report. Whole Asian barramundi were evaluated at 8°C.

Freshness: 8/10 for coated fish versus 1/10 for the uncoated sample on day 5. The report assessed sensory freshness on a ten-point scale.

Bacterial count: 9.0 × 10⁴ versus 2.0 × 10⁷ CFU/g on day 5, measured using ISO 4833. The displayed 99.55% reduction is calculated from those counts.

Storage window: coated fish remained below the report’s 2 × 10⁶ CFU/g threshold through day 6. The uncoated sample exceeded it on day 3.

Study notes & interpretation

Source: Singapore Aquaculture Technologies product validation report. Salmon fillets were evaluated at 8°C.

Freshness: 8/10 for coated fillets versus 2/10 for the uncoated sample on day 3. The report assessed sensory freshness on a ten-point scale.

Bacterial count: 1.0 × 10⁴ versus 2.0 × 10⁷ CFU/g on day 3, measured using ISO 4833. The displayed 99.95% reduction is calculated from those counts.

Storage window: the report’s 2 × 10⁶ CFU/g threshold was first exceeded on day 5 for coated fillets and day 2 for the uncoated sample—a three-day difference.

Discuss your application

A few practical
questions.

Have you tested our fruit or vegetable?

We have already tested avocado, strawberries, asparagus, apples and bananas. For another crop, we start with its freshness challenge and the conditions it will encounter.

How would this fit our handling and storage?

We work around your existing handling, packaging and storage. Together, we select the formulation and application approach, then evaluate freshness through the journey that matters to your business.

What do you need for a first conversation?

Tell us about the food or drink, how it is handled and stored, and the quality or shelf-life improvement you want to achieve. A high-level brief is enough to start.
