Product description
As a pioneer in seaweed-based innovation, Biopac has launched seaweed-based coating to preserve the freshness, extend the shelf life, and improve the marketability of fruits and vegetables. Biopac coating powder is a natural, convenient, effective, and affordable fruit preservation technology. Biopac coating powder is made from seaweed through sustainable practices, only needs 5 minutes to prepare the coating solution, and is applicable for dip and spray coating techniques. Compared to chitosan-based coatings that need acetic acid to dissolve, Biopac only needs water to dissolve.
