Passion Fruit Packaging

Advanced Modified Atmosphere/Modified Humidity Packaging Solutions for Shelf-Life Extension

Passion fruit is a highly perishable tropical fruit valued for its distinctive aroma, vibrant flavor, and rich nutritional profile. However, its short postharvest life presents significant challenges for growers and exporters. These fruits are highly perishable and susceptible to rapid deterioration, characterized by excessive weight loss, peel shriveling, microbial decay, and loss of glossy appearance.

StePacPPC modified atmosphere/modified humidity packaging solutions preserve fresh quality by naturally creating an environment inside the closed packaging that slows respiration, inhibits ethylene and suppresses microbial decay. High-water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) films are available to help release excess moisture which also assists in reducing the risk of microbial decay.

We have developed a broad range of passion fruit packaging formats to meet the needs of different markets and customers, including Xflow™ — a patented bulk flow-pack solution — Xtend® preformed bulk packaging, and Xgo™ retail packaging.
