Hygroscopic
Absorbs & Holds Moisture
Flax fibers absorb moisture very well, in fact, linen fabric can absorb up to 20% of its own weight in water! The flax fibers of our damp bags not only hold onto the moisture when stored inside the refrigerator drawer they release moisture back, keeping vegetables and/or herbs alive from continuous hydration, unlike other natural fibers.
Air Permeable
Breathable
Flax linen has hollow structure fibers that allows for air to flow in and out of Ambrosia Bags.  The lack of oxygen stops respiration (breathing) and decay of the produce will set in causing yucky slime. What’s more, absence of oxygen can cause fermentation to occur which will produce strong off flavors.
Thermoregulating
Temperature Balance
The unique hollow fibers of flax linen also take in environmental temperatures. Refrigeration of damp linen Ambrosia bags, stored inside the vegetable drawer, allows the hygroscopic nature of flax fibers to remain moist.
No Ethylene
Inhibits Spoilage
Ambrosia flax linen bags inhibit the formation of ethylene gas to prolong the life and freshness of produce.
Most vegetables and fruit release ethylene gas after harvest, a natural process which accelerates aging and ultimate deterioration of produce.
