22 September 2022, Philadelphia: AgroFresh Solutions, Inc. today announced their participation in Fruit Attraction in Madrid Oct. 4-6 at booth 3C12. Organized by IFEMA MADRID and FEPEX, Fruit Attraction is one of the main international trade shows bringing together the fruit and vegetable industry. As a global AgTech innovator and the leader in the fresh produce post-harvest segment, AgroFresh representatives will showcase a full range of freshness solutions and digital technologies that enhance the quality and help extend the shelf life of fresh fruits and vegetables.

“We look forward to meeting again with our industry colleagues and customers to share AgroFresh’s latest innovations and advancements for reducing food loss and waste,” said Julián Herráiz, General Director for AgroFresh Fruit Protection. “At AgroFresh we’re continually pushing the potential of our post-harvest solutions to benefit an expanding range of crops and markets to help improve freshness and quality at each step of the value chain for growers, packers and retailers.”

While sharing information about its wide range of innovative freshness solutions, AgroFresh experts will highlight several recent advancements during the show, including:

• AgroFresh recently launched VitaFresh™ Botanicals Life Select, an organic plant-based coating that helps keep produce fresh longer and reduces food loss and waste. The new product recently received organic certification from CAAE and is OMRI listed.
• The company will offer live demonstrations of its FreshCloud™ Inspection, an integrated digital platform that uses aggregated data, machine learning and artificial intelligence to sustainably address food waste reduction and derive quality and supply chain insights, allowing for real time decisions with live analytics.
• The booth will also highlight FreshStart™ disinfectants that are CAAE certified for stone fruit, pome fruit and citrus. FreshStart degrades quickly without leaving residues and can decrease contaminants in water treatment and help make water recycling more efficient and less costly.
• AgroFresh Chief Technology Officer Duncan Aust will participate in a panel discussion “Post-Harvest Innovation: The keys for new market access and 0 food-waste” 6 at 11 a.m. as part of the BioFruit Congress event.
