Light-Blocker Film

Volm Light-Blocker Half-N-Half and poly bags extend shelf life by 12 to 17 days over traditional poly and paper bags for russet potatoes on the measurement of weight loss. When measured by greening*, the shelf-life extension was unlimited with the Light Blocker Half-N-Half and poly bags versus traditional poly and paper bags for yellow, red and russet potato varieties. Light Blocker Half-N-Half and poly bags block greater than 99.5% of all visible and ultraviolet light.
