Less Waste. More Value.

LESS FLOWER WASTE. MORE VALUE FROM EVERY STEM.

Postharvest flower losses can reach 40%, according to an ICAR publication. Every discarded stem represents lost stock and lost sales potential.

ARPOSO helps cut roses stay fresh for longer, giving growers, wholesalers and retailers more time to sell. Our biopolymer coatings help protect the value of each stem, with the aim of reducing waste and preserving margins.

Cut Roses

ARPOSO-treated cut roses stayed fresh for longer, providing more time to sell and helping reduce waste. Results reflect average vase life at room temperature: 23–25 °C in autumn and winter, and 25–28 °C in summer.

KEEP FRESHNESS WORKING FOR YOUR BUSINESS.

Growing quality produce takes time, water, and care. Yet 25.4% of fruits and vegetables are lost globally between harvest and retail, according to FAO’s 2023 estimates. 

Across all food categories, food loss and waste cost the global economy around US$1 trillion annually and account for 8–10% of global greenhouse gas emissions.
