(Web Desk) – A Malaysian company called Stixfresh has developed a sticker that will extend the shelf life of fruits by 14 days.
The Stixfresh stickers can be plastered on fruits like apples, pears, avocados, dragon fruits, kiwis, mangos, oranges, and other citrus fruits. It will also keep the fruits firm, sweet and juicy.
Stixfresh was founded by Zhafri Zainudin and he had one thought when creating the company, “Maybe I can’t stop nature, but could I slow it down?” 4 years down the line, he established the company alongside co-founders Moody Soliman and Steve Hulteng.
The stickers are made with 100% organic materials. It comprises of Sodium Chloride and beeswax. The idea of the sticker is to reduce the ripening process by removing Ethylene, the ripening hormone found in fruits.
They are not stopping with just citrus fruits. They also plan to develop a sticker that will work on berries and vegetables in the future.
