Founded in 2020, Lund-based food technology company Saveggy has developed an edible coating that extends the shelf life of fresh fruits and vegetables. Serving as a sustainable alternative to plastic packaging, this plant-based coating forms a thin, invisible layer on the surface of produce. Acting as a protective barrier, it prevents moisture loss and slows down oxidation. The company made its market entry with a coating product derived from canola and oats, specifically tailored for cucumbers. Saveggy® is a modular platform technology that can be customized to meet the specific requirements of various fruits and vegetables.
