Expertise
Sufresca is an agritech startup developing innovative edible coating formulations for postharvest extended shelf-life and preserved quality of fresh vegetables, fruits, bulbs and minimally processed fruit and vegetables; particularly those that are notoriously challenging to coat. Our mission is to facilitate better global horticulture practices, where our cost-effective and eco-friendly edible coatings are available for all perishables. Sufresca addresses impacts of food loss and waste, plastic packaging and energy consumption of modern food systems. Sufresca’s technology was originally developed at the Robert H. Smith Faculty of Agriculture, Food and Environment of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
