TRENDLIFE GRAPE MA BAG

•  HAS RECENTLY DEVELOPED A MODIFIED ATMOSPHERE BAG TO FIND A SOLUTION FOR THE PROBLEMS OBSERVED IN GRAPE STORAGE

TRENDLIFE 

• TRENDLIFE  HAS BEEN DESIGNED TO PROTECT GRAPES DURING A PERIOD BETWEEN HANDLING OF GRAPES IN PACKING HOUSE AND TRANSPORTATION TO DISTANT MARKETS.
•  GRAPES IN TRENDLIFE MA BAGS MAY BE STORED IN BEST QUALITY DURING 3-4 WEEKS IN COLD STORAGE UNITS

WHY WE NEED TO TRENDLIFE 

• EXPORTERS FOLLOW TWO WAYS IN HANDLING OF HARVESTED GRAPES
• EXPORTERS TRANSPORT THE FRUIT AS QUICK AS POSSIBLE TO DISTANT MARKETS WITHOUT PLACING IN A BAG AND SO2 .
•  PROBLEMS OBSERVED IN THE FIRST WEEKS OF STORAGE
•  WEIGHT LOSS IN BERRIES
• INCREASE IN SHATTERING
•  SENESCENCE AND INCREASE IN SUSCEPTIBILITY TO DECAY
•  SHORT SHELF LIFE

 WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF  TRENDLIFE ?

• PROBLEMS OBSERVED DURING TRANSPORTATION REDUCE THE MARKETABILITY OF GRAPES AND LIMIT EXPORT OPPORTUNITIES
• TRENDLIFE COMPLETELY INHIBITS DESSICATION AND BROWNING IN RACHIS, STEM AND PEDICEL
• GRAPES ARE TRANSPORTED TO DISTANT MARKETS WITHOUT WEIGHT LOSS, SHATTERING AND DECAY

WHAT IS THE MODE OF ACTION OF TRENDLIFE 

 TRENDLIFE  PROTECT GRAPES BY USING THREE MECHANISMS

    1)   BAGS KEEP THE O2 AND CO2 LEVEL IN OPTIMUM LEVEL TO INHIBIT THE SENESCENCE OF FRUIT

   2)     BAGS KEEP THE LEVEL OF RELATIVE HUMIDITY INSIDE THE BAG IN OPTIMUM LEVEL AND INHIBITS DESICCATION AND BROWNING OF PEDICELS, RACHIS AND BERRIES

   3)   BAGS INHIBIT DECAY CAUSING MICROORGANISMS WITH ANTIMICROBIAL PROPERTIES

HOW DO WE USE TRENDLIFE ?

• PLACE HARVESTED GRAPES IN LIFEPACK PLUS BAGS
• FOLD BAG IN THE EDGES OF BOX TO INCREASE VENTILATION DURING PRECOOLING
• PRODUCE MUST BE PRECOOLED QUICKLY WITH ‘FORCED AIR COOLING’ OR ‘CIRCULATING AIR COOLING’ (SPEAK WITH EXPERTS OF LIFEPACK FOR DETAILED INFORMATION)
• CLOSE THE BAGS AS AIRTIGHT AND TRANSPORT TO MARKET IN COLD CHAIN
