POST HARVEST FRUIT & PRODUCE COATINGS

 

CEREXAGRI DECCO Post-Harvest Fruit & Produce Coatings
Global Decco Post-Harvest

With DECCO (for DECay COntrol), Cerexagri has developed a practically unique position in the world of agro chemistry by offering the fruit and vegetables sector a range of products and services aimed at preserving the quality of production far beyond harvest.

Cerexagri is recognized as world leader in this segment, thanks to DECCO's skilled workforce and its very comprehensive range of fungicides, anti-oxidants, disinfectants, cleaning and coating products, available to all fruit and vegetable packing houses in all countries.

The goal of post-harvest activity is to maintain all the characteristics that form the quality of a fruit (texture, flavor, appearance and healthiness) for as long as is necessary, in spite of the natural and inevitable processes of deterioration that follow its separation from the tree.

Fruits and vegetables can thus be shipped to markets remote from production sites or can be stored for several months, to be consumed long after periods of production. The control of this quality enables this sector to obtain the highest value from its products and also to satisfy consumer requirements and expectations.
