Retailer Benefits

Protecting Retail Profits

TECTROL® Atmosphere helps control retail shrink. Strawberries shipped with TECTROL® simply do not deteriorate or decay as fast as strawberries shipped without TECTROL®. This translates into direct profits delivered to the retail category

Once strawberries arrive and the TECTROL® bag is removed, TECTROL®-treated-fruit stays fresher longer. Decay and wet and leaky conditions are controlled.

TECTROL® Atmosphere
Refrigeration Only

The strawberries in both samples were from the same lot and harvested at the same time. The strawberries on the left were shipped in TECTROL® CA while the strawberries on the right were in refrigeration only.

Direct Consumer Benefits from TECTROL® Modified Atmosphere

Even after the berries are removed from refrigeration (say to the back of the consumers car) TECTROL® treated strawberries remain protected, satisfying the consumer that they have bought your best.

Identical lots, shipped with and without TECTROL®, 3-4 days transit. Prior to retail display, berries were "set up" or sorted so displayed fruit was 100% usable, free of decay and wet and leaky fruit.
