"At our farm located near Brussels we grow asparagus, endives and Brussels Sprouts. The Brussels sprouts are grown for the Belgium market but also for export to other European countries, USA, Canada and Asia. We use a Perfotec laser system on our packaging machines to adjust the amount of perforations in the packaging films. By measuring the respiration rate of the Brussels Sprouts daily and based on the specifications of the transport to the shop we can choose the correct transpiration rate of the bags to extend the shelf life of the product. Since we started using this technology we saw a significant increase in shelf life for the Brussels sprouts, we can now store or transport in bags for more than 2 weeks without any weight or quality loss."

"Perfotec is a World leader in reducing food waste. EarthFresh has been collaborating with Perfotec for several years to bring innovative solutions to the potato business. We utilize their proprietary system to measure the respiration of different varieties of potatoes during their life cycle. Then we customize the perforations on our packaging using their laser perforation equipment, to minimize the respiration of our packaged products. With Perfotec EarthFresh has seen significant enhancements to shelf life, and we feel that the potato industry will benefit greatly by the reductions in food waste that these technologies will bring."

"Church Brothers Farms employs PerfoTec’s Fast Respirometer daily to determine the respiration rate of different fresh-cut vegetables and salads to adjust packaging parameters to seasonal and regional variations in the physiology of fresh produce to maximize its postharvest life. This has improved the organoleptic quality and shelf life of our fresh-cut produce and expedited our new product development process. Currently, we are conducting trials with PerfoTec’s new bio-based liner bag for shelf life extension and waste reduction of fresh produce throughout our supply chain. Over the 10+ years, I have worked with PerfoTec, the company continuously innovated in the space of the fresh-cut industry to improve freshness, reduce waste and increase sustainability.
