Keeping Food Fresh from Farm to Fork
A piece of paper can reduce global food waste. Low cost, compostable and infused only with organic spices, FreshPaper keeps produce fresh 2-4 times longer.
FreshPapers are sheets of paper that are dropped into containers, boxes and bags of produce. By keeping food fresh from farm to fork in a scalable and sustainable way, while significantly reducing resource and energy costs, FreshPaper promises to positively impact the food economy and transform the lives of the 1.6 billion people who still lack access to refrigeration.
Simple ideas are often the most powerful.
FreshPaper has spread from a single farmer’s market to farms, retailers and consumers in over 35 countries.
