Natural intelligence customized service
Shel-Life is a 100% natural emulsion (plant-based) manufactured with natural extracts, lipids, and plant polymers. This coating is applied on the fruit surface, reducing Food Waste by preventing dehydration and maintaining freshness for a longer period of time.
Shel-Life is a product for agribusiness that differs from its competitors since the coatings used by the vast majority of fruit exporting companies in the market consist of synthetic waxes that are made up of components derived from petroleum.
Shel-Life essentially outperforms all other products available
in the market since it is made with all-natural products
assuring consumers wellness.
