Foil pouched mango product's 18-month refrigerated shelf-life is no pulp fiction

Anglo-Indian firm Atul Agro says it has made the UK's first foil-pouched pure Alphonso mango pulp product that has an 18-month refrigerated shelf-life.

Under the brand name 'It's so Natural', the product is sold in a 200g pouch for shoppers and packs of 400g, 500g and 1.5kg for caterers.

Atul Agro's marketing manager, Kartik Poojari said: "The fruit comes from our family orchards in India, which have been using sustainable growing methods for over 100 years. We control the process, from cultivation with natural fertilisers to packaging and delivery."

Atul Agro developed the pouch technology, which is made by an ISO-certified Indo-German firm. The aluminium foil base acts as a gas and moisture barrier, with a high-temperature sealant layer.
