Apple growers, packers and shippers across the United States now have access to a new tool in post-harvest preservation: MaTri Powder, a high-quality 1-MCP solution that delivers produce protection with convenience.
U.S. producers lose nearly 30% of stored apples due to quality degradation but are left to choose between costly options that may be difficult to scale or cheap 1-MCP imports that often deliver inconsistent or substandard results.
MaTri Powder is:
- A high-purity 1-MCP that binds to ethylene receptors on produce to slow degradation and prolong shelf life.
- Packaged in water-soluble pouches that eliminate the need for measurement and leave no residue.
- Available in seven pouch sizes to match any room configuration, ensuring maximum parts per billion performance.
- Available with no technician required—an intuitive, re-chargeable generator is included free with qualifying purchases.
"MaTri Powder is purpose-built for the realities of modern storage operations," said Keith Culver, U.S. commercial lead. "It puts the power directly in the hands of the grower, and it maximizes dynamic controlled atmosphere practices to extend produce quality throughout the entire supply chain — not just in storage."
MaTri Powder is manufactured under rigorous quality controls and offers consistent particle size and uniform delivery. With pre-order discounts available through July 31, it's also an economical solution for operations of all sizes.
MaTri Tablets — an effervescent, no-generator-required option — will be made available first to MaTri Powder customers. Additionally, there is a MaTri proprietary confirmation technology that ensures optimal 1-MCP dose rate delivery with every application.
