KIF Ethylene Filter

Our Ethylene Filter, available in both Filter Tube and Filter Curtain forms, is designed to maintain the freshness and extend the shelf life of fruits and vegetables during transportation and storage. Ideal for reefer containers and cold storages, these filters absorb ethylene gas, which accelerates ripening and leads to early decay. The Filter Tube and Filter Curtain effectively prevent the excessive accumulation of ethylene gas, ensuring produce remains fresh and of high quality upon arrival. These essential tools reduce waste, enhance produce quality, and ensure that customers receive the freshest products possible.

These innovative tubes are designed to be easily placed in cold storages, walk-in coolers, reefer vans, and non-reefer vans, ensuring your produce stays fresh during transportation and storage. KIF Tubes work by absorbing ethylene gas, which slows down the ripening process, thus extending the shelf life of your fresh produce. The tubes contain ethylene absorbers packed within a non-woven cloth that acts as a breathable membrane, effectively reducing the speed at which produce ripens.
