FRUITGUARD™ – “The Airbag for Fruit”

June 12 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Free

Would you prefer your car with or without airbags? The same question now applies to your fruit in harvest bins.

Henco Smit, founder of Prima Defensio, will present FRUITGUARD™ — an innovative, shock-absorbing liner that acts as an “Airbag” for fruit. It protects fruit during the post-harvest handling process from orchard to packhouse with an average increase of 1½ to 3 packs per bin. Henco will also introduce his wireless Impact Monitoring System — a practical assessment tool that identifies damage hotspots across the full handling chain.
