Ryan® Ethylene Absorption Filters and Sachets

Ryan® Ethylene Absorption Filters and Sachets

While postharvest changes in fresh produce cannot be fully stopped, they can be slowed within certain limits. Featuring a mixture of natural clays and potassium permanganate (KMnO4), Sensitech’s line of Ryan® Ethylene Absorption products provide a cost-effective way to reduce the impact of ethylene on fresh horticultural commodities during transport and storage.

Absorbing ethylene from the atmosphere around the commodity is a preferred method for slowing produce deterioration. Ryan Ethylene Filters work with refrigerated air circulation to help purify the air within road, land, and sea containers, while Ryan Ethylene Sachets help protect produce from the effects of ethylene inside individual shipping packages where air circulation is not available. Our Ethylene Absorption products do not need to come in direct contact with produce, which minimizes residue, and they are safe for use with organic products.
