Summary

Sweet Charlie strawberries were wrapped with PVC polymetric film, and forced- air precooled after delays of 0, 6 or 8 hours at 30 deg C and stored for one week at 1 deg C plus one day at 20 deg C. Delaying the precooling resulted in less attractive fruits and loss of quality characteristics. Wrapped strawberries maintained better appearance and quality than non-wrapped berries.
