    Subsidiary’s treatment aims to help reduce pre & post-harvest food waste by extending shelf life of fruits and vegetables, and to potentially provide an alternative revenue stream by issuing carbon credits

    Neve Yarak, Israel, Aug. 20, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- N2OFF, Inc. (NASDAQ: NITO) (FSE:80W) (“N2OFF” and the “Company”), a clean tech company engaged in sustainable solutions for energy and innovation for agri-tech, announced its plan to utilize its subsidiary, Save Foods Ltd.’s (“Save Foods”), patented treatment to extend shelf life of certain fruits and vegetables to pursue monetizing the quantification of emission reductions by keeping food in the human supply chain. If successful, the Company could receive designated food waste credit.

    Save Foods engaged a team of sustainability strategy experts from the Nibbana-Group, led by Galit Kenigsberg, to examine potential avenues to provide alternative revenue streams from Save Food’s patented treatment. They concluded that Save Foods may meet the conditions of the Verra VM00046 methodology and could potentially be eligible to receive certain benefits such as food waste carbon credits.

    This methodology applies to project activities that reduce food loss and waste (FLW) by increasing food available for human consumption and keeping food in the human supply chain. Eligible project activities may prevent FLW at different stages of the food chain, including at farms, food processing facilities, retailers, food services/hospitalities, and households. The methodology enables organizations to become eligible for carbon credits by reducing food waste.

    David Palach, N2OFF’s CEO, commented, “This methodology provides us with an opportunity not only to continue helping farmers, packaging houses, and retailers reduce costs by extending shelf life, but also to potentially increase revenues by qualifying for credits through the use of Save Foods products. We are exploring the Verra VM00046 methodology, which we believe could align with our strategy. We also plan to implement an inset strategy to monetize our proprietary technology for reducing N2O greenhouse gas emissions.”
