22 Jul 2019 --- MA/MH (Modified Atmosphere/Modified Humidity) packaging technology, Xtend Iceless, eliminates the need for ice and non-recyclable wax cartons in the transport of fresh vegetables, such as broccoli. The new launch by StePac Ltd. seeks to integrate sustainability into long-haul transport of vegetables, as well as to enhance food safety. According to the Food & Agriculture Organization, 1.3 billion tons of food worldwide is wasted annually, with 40 to 50 percent of this being lost post-harvest due to spoilage in transit.
