It's Fresh is a UK-based biotechnology company operating in the agri-food tech sector, developing solutions to manage ethylene in the fresh produce supply chain. Based in Staffordshire, it targets post-harvest and retail settings with the aim of slowing ripening to extend shelf life without resorting to coatings or altering the produce's natural pathways. The company maintains a small to mid-sized team. Its ethylene-control products are designed to be customizable and easily integrated into growers' and retailers' operations, supporting better returns and reducing waste. Recent developments include the launch of a second-generation technology called Active, which offers higher efficacy than the first version. The approach focuses on adsorbing and regulating ethylene rather than changing other factors, with potential benefits for consumers through enhanced sensory quality.
