One for all
Fresh produce faces its biggest challenge after harvest: time.
Fruits, vegetables, and flowers lose freshness, quality, and value every day.
With Afondo, we provide a natural, edible coating that keeps produce fresh for longer, reduces waste, and protects quality all the way through the supply chain.
Invisible, tasteless, and odorless, Afondo works without chemicals – extending shelf life, lowering losses, and opening new possibilities for longer, more sustainable transport.
