Double shelf life for fresh cherries

BREAKTHROUGH packaging solutions for extending the shelf life of fresh cherries without impact on appearance or taste have been launched by Hefestus. Multiple controlled trials to successfully develop a method to extend cherries' shelf life more than 20 days - a remarkable result for cherries in particular and fresh fruits in general. Trials in the field, specifically in packaging houses specialising in nutritional superfruits such as cherries, were conducted in order to extend shelf life in different packaging systems produced by Hefestus. "We received impressive results for all of our packaging machines," says Oded Shtemer, president & CEO. "Hefestus' packaging solution for cherries is suitable for any size production or marketing operation, small or large." The proprietary packaging technology, SLB (Shelf Life Booster), not only allows processors to double fresh cherries' shelf life, but also maintains the firm, crisp texture, the mouthfeel and the freshness of the fruit.
