Maintaining the freshness of fruits, vegetables, and flowers during storage and transportation requires effective ethylene control. BioXTEND's BXT Shield is an innovative Filter For Ethylene Gas designed to protect fresh produce by continuously removing ethylene, bacteria, and mold from the cargo environment. With one filter placed on each pallet, BXT Shield delivers reliable protection from the packing line to the final destination, helping reduce spoilage and preserve product quality.
Unlike conventional plastic filter systems, BXT Shield features a patented, leak-free, plastic-free design that is both environmentally responsible and highly effective. The filter contains non-invasive minerals and salts that absorb and oxidize ethylene gas without contaminating fresh produce. Once exhausted, the remaining material can be safely disposed of with regular waste or even used as an organic fertilizer, making it an eco-friendly choice for modern produce operations.
As a high-performance filter for ethylene gas, BXT Shield helps maintain the natural freshness, color, firmness, and weight of fruits and vegetables throughout transport. It also limits mold development and reduces airborne bacteria and fungal spores, creating a cleaner atmosphere inside containers and trailers. This continuous protection extends shelf life while minimizing post-harvest losses, allowing growers, exporters, distributors, and retailers to deliver higher-quality produce to customers.
BXT Shield is easy to use. Simply place one unit on top of each pallet before loading it into a refrigerated container or trailer. Its optimal positioning ensures efficient ethylene absorption throughout the journey while requiring no complicated installation or maintenance. The product is highly porous, dust-free, water-resistant, UV-resistant, and fully recyclable for dependable performance under demanding transport conditions.
BioXTEND's BXT Shield is approved for use with organic produce under USDA National Organic Program and EU organic regulations, while its food-grade packaging meets FDA and EU requirements. Combining sustainability, advanced ethylene removal technology, and ease of use, BXT Shield is the ideal solution for businesses seeking dependable produce preservation.
