Sunup reflective film for colouring fruit

 SunUp Reflective Orchard Film reflects 85% or more of the suns UV rays up into the underside and central areas of the tree to where the difficult to colour fruit is.

Placing the film between the rows of your orchard trees you can expect an improvement in fruit colouring, size and in higher brix and taste.

Benefits:

¨ Noticeable improvement in color blush - Larger fruit size
¨ Fruits with increased brix levels - S
weeter fruit with better taste.
¨ Earlier and more balanced harvesting.

¨ Reduction in harvesting time - Reduced number of picks

Technical Details:
Red color development in tree fruit, whether nectarine, apple, cherry, pomegranate, etc., is triggered by a chemical reaction which changes the red pigment precursor cyanidin to ideain, the predominant red pigment in anthocyanin

The initial color change seen when using reflective orchard film is in the background color, in as few as four days after the materials are placed in the field.

The best red color enhancement occurs when the film is spread in the orchard three to four weeks prior to harvest.
