The longevity of cut flowers in storage is affected by a number of factors. Among them are temperature, humidity, disease and the ethylene gas production by some varieties.
Ozone will destroy ethylene as it is produced thereby increasing the safe storage period for many types of cut flowers. Further, it will also destroy airborne micro-organisms and reduce losses due to the spread of disease.
Costs are minimal and the savings are significant.
