The film, created through research and trials, reduces respiration rate and plant metabolism, preserving the freshness and quality of the flowers. The packaging allows for the desired gas composition inside the bags, resulting in delayed senescence and improved appearance of the flowers. ROPs film has already been in commercial use for male and female zucchini flowers, and the company plans to expand its line of products for the edible flowers category.
