Ryp Labs is a food and crop protection company that combats global food waste using all-natural methods. Their first product, Stixfresh stickers, extends the shelf-life of fresh fruit by up to 14 days. These FDA-approved stickers, coated with a patent-pending formulation of 100% natural ingredients, create a protective layer around the fruit, slowing down the ripening process. Independent studies show that Stixfresh-treated fruit has increased sweetness, moisture retention, and firmness. Ryp Labs, funded by the USDA and NSF, is dedicated to developing biomimicry solutions to sustainably and safely combat food waste. Their Shelf-Defense labels and Stixfresh stickers have been proven to double the shelf-life of fresh produce. Join their mission to fight food waste, one sticker at a time.
