Fruits are treated with SecoFend through dipping or spraying. This natural protection shields them from mold and spoilage — without leaving chemical residues.
After SecoFend has done its job, a wax coating or similar protective layer can be applied —without interfering with SecoFend’s natural protection.

Why Fruit Protection Matters
Citrus fruits such as oranges, lemons, and mandarins are highly valued for their rich vitamin C content and versatile use worldwide. However, once harvested, they become vulnerable to mold, especially Penicillium digitatum (green mold) and Penicillium italicum (blue mold). Without adequate post-harvest protection, these fungi can cause significant spoilage within days—leading to major economic losses and reduced food availability. Effective protection after harvest is crucial to maintain fruit quality, extend shelf life, and minimize waste.
Who We Are
SecoFend was founded with a clear mission: to revolutionize post-harvest citrus fruit treatment by providing a natural, safe alternative to conventional plant protection products. Driven by a vision for sustainable and secure agricultural solutions, we harnessed years of expertise in materials and product development to bring forth an innovation that benefits both producers and consumers.
Conventional farming relies heavily on chemical fungicides to prevent spoilage and mold. Unfortunately, this compromises health, as toxic residues can remain on fruit peels. It’s a paradox—fruits promoted as healthy are treated with substances that undermine their benefits. SecoFend challenges this status quo with a better, safer, and more sustainable alternative.
