… A Global problem getting out of hand!!
A new protective layer that prevents food waste
A better, stronger, and superior natural protective layer that:
increases shelf life by 2-3x
reduces current wastage by 1/3rd
increases food security.
We are borrowing from the very same nature with the advancements in science with our all-natural protective layer that mimicks a very simple law of nature;
‘It keeps the moisture in and oxygen out’
Thereby slowing down the spoiling process of fruit and veggies that leads to waste.

How does Greenskn help to save waste?
Greenskn substantially increases the shelf life of the product which gives ample bandwidth for various stakeholders to make it reach the consumer ensuring that less food is wasted due to supply chain issues.
Does it impact the harvesting time?
These days, in most cases, fruits are typically being harvested earlier than their natural ripening state to keep their shelf life stable which severely compromises the nutritional quality. With Greenskn.com fruits can be harvested as they naturally ripen which pushes their nutrition density and keeps them fresh and stable for a longer time duration.
