1-MCP 3.3% VP for apple preservation
1-MCP (1-methylcyclopropene) 3.3% VP is a plant growth regulator that acts as an ethylene inhibitor, used to extend the shelf life of fruits, vegetables, and flowers by preventing ripening and senescence. Although, the product can be used for multiple fruits and vegetables, our initial focus it to capture the apple industry.
We are the sole manufacturer of this product in India and 5th manufacturer of the product in the world.
1-MCP is a chemical compound that blocks the action of ethylene, a natural plant hormone that triggers ripening and aging in fruits, vegetables, and flowers.
Application: 1-MCP is typically applied in storage facilities or during transportation, often by using a generator that releases the 1-MCP vapor into the air.
