Softripe® - Technology and expertise can improve quality and shelf life.
The modern, artificial intelligence-supported technology for the precise ripening of avocados and mangoes underscores our high standards for product quality and responsible resource management.
The Softripe® process enables even better fruit quality and longer shelf life, even without the use of additives. This can help reduce fruit loss along the value chain.
Ready-To-Eat
At the heart of the process, known as Softripe®, is fruit respiration and thus the 'well-being' of the fruits during the ripening process. The artificial intelligence-supported technology continuously monitors the atmosphere in the ripening chamber and individually adapts it to the respective metabolic processes of the fruits. "The very homogeneous and consistently high ripening qualities have convinced us," confirms Ali-Reza Mayer.
Longer Shelf Life
Thanks to the patented Softripe® technology, fruits ripen in such a way that they have a longer shelf life on retail shelves and under typical household conditions. In addition, quality defects inside the fruit, such as the discoloration of fibers in the pulp known as 'vascular browning,' can be reduced with the new method.
More Aromatic
Blind tests have shown that Softripe® avocados are attributed better sensory properties than fruits from conventional ripening processes due to their nuttier and more aromatic taste and creamier consistency.
The reduced moisture loss during the ripening process also ensures an even fresher product experience. An increased purchase intent was also observed compared to conventionally ripened avocados.
