Meet the enemy: ethylene
Fruits and vegetables naturally release a plant hormone called ethylene gas as they ripen.
This gas causes nearby fruits and vegetables to ripen more quickly than they normally would.
Reducing ethylene in your fridge slows this process, helping fresh produce last longer!

The science behind Fridge Friend
Purified water particles are released back into the air, keeping optimal humidity and an environment where your produce could stay fresh for up to 3 weeks longer!
Captures the contaminated water molecules
It captures harmful impurities within your fridge including ethylene gas and bacteria.
Filters them through its microscopic crystalline pores
These water molecules then pass through tiny crystalline pores, which work to remove impurities.
Releasing freshness back into your fridge
The purified water particles are then released back into the fridge, helping maintain optimal humidity.
Research data on the effects of Fridge Friend
The tests below show how effective Fridge Friend is at making your groceries last longer by tackling ethylene gas, the main culprit behind food spoilage.
As you can see, in the first test, it lowered ethylene by 79%.

These findings prove that Fridge Friend really works!

If It traps bacteria and mould, how do you clean the filter inside?
To reset your Fridge Friend, simply heat it in the microwave for 20 seconds or in the oven on low-heat for 30 minutes.

Proven commercial cool room technology, now in your home
Fridge Friend is proudly run by an Aussie family who has been supplying commercial filters to cool rooms for more than 12 years!
The same filters have been used internationally for more than 20 years.
We worked with organisations including Co-Labs Melbourne, CSIRO and Deakin University, to develop and improve Fridge Friend and make the same commercial food preservation technology available for Aussie homes.

Stop wasting food & start saving up to $800 Year
According to their National Food Waste Strategy Feasibility Study, the average Australian household wastes about $2,500 on food that is thrown out each year
So, how much of that wasted food is fresh produce? We crunched the numbers and found that around 40% of household food waste is made up of fresh produce (based on data from page 17 of the study).
That means about $1,000 of the $2,500 is wasted on produce alone.
While some households have reported that Fridge Friend has completely eliminated their fresh produce waste, we’ve taken a more conservative approach and estimated that Fridge Friend can reduce produce waste by up to 80% (or $800 per year).
Placing Fridge Friend in your fridge keeps your produce fresh for longer, helps you reduce food waste, and puts up to $800 back in your pocket!
A win for your wallet and the planet.
