The B-Shelf project aims to reduce food waste by developing an innovative edible coating that extends the shelf-life of fruits and vegetables. This coating incorporates essential oils to prevent spoilage and dehydration, enhancing storage stability and profitability for producers.
Almost half of the fruits and vegetables production is lost before it is consumed by people.
Dehydration is considered the main driver of quality decrease and promoter of fungi/bacteria proliferation.
