Our Extend A Life Ethylene Filters and Sachets are used on
US Navy Ships of all types. These filters are designed to effectively absorb the ethylene gas that causes most fresh fruits & vegetables (FFV) to ripen and spoil.  By absorbing the ethylene gas, our products prolong the shelf life of most FFV by up to four weeks longer than normal.  This allows for higher nutrition, reduced surveys of FFV and enhances quality of life for our Sailors and Marines.
