Hazel Technologies, Inc. develops postharvest technologies designed to keep fruits and vegetables fresher across the produce supply chain. Its solutions target natural causes of spoilage, including ethylene exposure, excess carbon dioxide, fungal spores, sprouting, and breaks in the cold chain. By regulating storage conditions and slowing produce respiration, Hazel’s contact-free technologies help reduce decay, preserve quality, limit waste, and support profitability.

The company’s offerings include Hazel BreatheWay® modified-atmosphere packaging, which uses breathable membrane technology to regulate gas flow around packaged produce. Hazel also provides crop-specific solutions, adapting its formulations to the needs of different varieties. Crops treated include bananas, berries, cucumbers, melons, broccoli, avocados, mangoes, citrus, and stone fruit.

Hazel works with growers, packers and shippers, retailers, and food service companies. Its solutions are intended to help partners protect produce quality during storage and transit, reduce shrinkage, and improve the likelihood that fresh products arrive in sellable condition. The company also shares product, science, and industry updates through its website and news resources.
