IMAP CRYSTAL CUCUMBER PACKS

- Even without pre-cooling, cucumbers stored in IMAP Crystal packages can be kept in cold storage for 2 weeks in a very healthy way.
- IMAP Crystal is a package developed to protect the harvested cucumbers during preparation and transportation to the market.

WHY DO YOU NEED IMAP CRYSTAL?
Cucumber exporters are often unable to pre-cool cucumbers due to market conditions. Cucumbers packaged without pre-cooling deteriorate until they reach the destination country. IMAP Crystal series has been developed to eliminate these problems.

- Cucumbers stored in IMAP Crystal packs show no yellowing or signs of aging.

IMAP CRYSTAL MECHANISM OF ACTION
IMAP Crystal protects cucumber using 3 different mechanisms of action simultaneously.
- It prevents yellowing and aging of the product by balancing the oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration in the package at the appropriate value level.
- Optimizes the humidity in the package and prevents the product from rotting.
- With its antimicrobial properties, it protects the product by preventing microorganisms that cause decay.
