Types of Freshness Preservatives
- General Commercial Freshness Preservers
Gas Absorber
Reduces fermentation expansion by removing CO₂.
Silica Gel
Desiccant that absorbs moisture.
Ethylene Absorber
Prevents spoilage in fruits & vegetables by absorbing ethylene gas.
Oxygen Absorber
Prevents food spoilage by removing oxygen. Organic non-metal types also exist.
Alcohol Agent
Sterilizing effect via alcohol vapor; used in buns, breads, etc.
ClO₂ Freshness Keeper
Slows aging/spoilage in produce using chlorine dioxide; adds sterilization effect.
* Other types include sheet-type preservatives for meat, fish, seafood, etc.
One of the key causes of produce spoilage is microbial fermentation.
ENGLOBAL’s freshness preserving agent is based on chlorine dioxide—approved by WHO as a Class A-1 disinfectant for drinking water.
By stabilizing chlorine dioxide in a gel form, it enables controlled release over time, providing exceptional antimicrobial performance.
This technology is applicable beyond agriculture and can play a critical role in the storage, packaging, and transport of floral, forestry, livestock, seafood, and processed food products.
With the rise of single-person households and small-package delivery trends, this solution is ideal for use inside packaging to preserve freshness throughout distribution.
Especially effective for domestic and export produce logistics.
