What is FRESHLONG?

A professional 1-MCP gas generation system.

FRESHLONG™ is a professional 1-MCP gas generation system for post-harvest freshness management. It uses a dedicated generator and chemical components to generate 1-MCP gas on-site inside a sealed storage room.

It is designed for professional use in cold storage, CA storage, packing, and export supply chains — providing operators with a controlled, repeatable treatment protocol without the logistical constraints of pressurized cylinders.

Who should use it?

Built for professional storage operators

  • CA storage operators
  • Cold storage owners
  • Apple and pear storage companies
  • Fruit exporters
  • Packers
  • Distributors
  • Post-harvest service providers
  • Local agents handling storage treatment service

What problem does it solve?

Ethylene-driven quality loss during storage

After harvest, climacteric fruits continue to produce ethylene, accelerating ripening, softening, and quality loss during long-term storage and distribution. FRESHLONG™ delivers 1-MCP into a sealed storage room, where it helps suppress ethylene action — supporting firmness retention and extending the practical storage window under proper treatment conditions.

System Hardware

A complete on-site treatment kit

The FRESHLONG™ system pairs a reusable, automated generator with single-use Component A & B chemicals and a disposable reaction cartridge.

FRESHLONG™ Generator

Reusable controller unit with delayed-start, heater, air pump, and treatment cycle indicators.

Operator Control Panel

Operator Control Panel

Status indicators for power, cartridge, heater, air pump, and treatment completion.

Reaction Cartridge

Reaction Cartridge

Loaded with Component A + B; placed inside the generator for the sealed-room reaction.

FRESHLONG Component A and Component B chemicals

Component A & Component B

Two-part chemical system. Mixed on-site immediately before each treatment to generate 1-MCP gas inside the reaction cartridge. Dosed by storage chamber volume.

Why on-site generation

No pressurized cylinders. No cold chain shipping.

  • Ship and store as standard liquid chemicals
  • Generate the exact dose for each chamber volume
  • Reuse the generator across rooms and seasons
  • Operator exits before reaction begins (5-min delay)
