We are before the start of the maritime exports of the Mexican Mango, and whatever the destination of this commodity, with the Liventus Controlled Atmosphere the best possible arrival condition can be obtained. The use of controlled atmosphere benefits both exporters and importers of this fruit, which with each season becomes more relevant due to its flavor and nutritional benefits.
Mexico has managed to become the largest exporter of fresh mango worldwide, exporting different varieties of mango, among them, Tommy Atkins, Hadden, Kent and Ataulfo stand out. Availability may vary depending on variety and origin, but may extend from February to September. Although more than 95% of the market is concentrated in the United States and Canada, with Liventus it is possible to take advantage of a larger commercialization window to reach more destinations that have longer transit times, whether in Asia, Europe or South America. The suggestion for a combination of gases to reduce the respiratory rate provided by the Liventus controlled atmosphere is the strategic ally to deliver a product that meets the highest quality standards in different international markets.
The main benefits of using a high percentage of CO2 to reduce the respiratory rate are reflected in the reduction in weight loss of the fruit inside the container, greater fruit firmness, and a decrease in the ripening and senescence processes. In this way, changes in coloration and/or the appearance of internal browning are avoided. All this accompanied by the fungistatic effect provided by the Controlled Atmosphere, which, by stopping the proliferation of fungi and pathogens inside the container, makes it possible to deliver fruit with better appearance and without defects, which will be better received in international markets whose quality requirements are of products for consumption are always increasing.
