FRUITS AND VEGETABLES STAY FRESH WITH FAIN. 1> WHAT IS FAIN? FAIN is a freshness preservative for fruits and vegetables that combines a substance which irradiates a large amount of far infrared radiation at normal temperatures and a substance that absorbs gas. FAIN is applied on the *inner surface of cardboard packages. FAIN was developed exclusively by our company as an effective and economical method which does not cause loss of corrugated cardboard permeability. This development has allowed for a significant reduction in spoilage loss which is a problem confronted in trade, long-distance transport, and long-term storage of goods. Inner Surface : Applied as 2 cm wide strips on surface where the package and produce come in contact. 2> CURRENT STATUS A method exists for dispersing far infrared radioactive particles onto film, but this method has a number of disadvantages. It is very costly to disperse the particles evenly over the entire surface, the processing cost for paper manufactured with cristobal which causes absorption of ethylene gas is very high, and there is a reduction of particles, making this method impractical. 3> DEVELOPMENT OF THE PRODUCT Our product is applied a far infrared ray substance and anti-oxidant substance in linear form inside cardboard packages as a means of helping absorption of ethylene gas and activating fruits juices. FAIN is approvrd by FDA. If you treat fresh produce, and would like more additional information, please contact our web site: http://www.nitidan.com/ Thank you so much!! Nippon Container Corporation
