Fenocol Ltda. in Colombia has been supplying floral products, flowers and conservantes florales since 1983. Today we have reached out to far flung areas worldwide. To prevent cut flowers from getting worn out, FENOCOL has produced certain conservantes florales like Ultraflor® Floral Preservative and Flashwetter®. When flowers are cut, they lose their source of water. That is why it is important to put the fresh flowers in water immediately. Not only does the flower lose its source of water, but also it loses its source of food. In order to introduce food to increase the life of the flower, you must add a floral preservative to the water.

FENOCOL produces preservatives that have the perfect level of sucrose, microorganism and respiratory inhibitors. An acidifier makes the pH of the water more near the acid pH of the cell sap. Most water supplies are alkaline and can reduce the life of cut flowers. The acidifier also stabilizes the pigment and the color of the flower. This is why red roses turn "blue" when placed in water without a preservative or acidifier. A microorganism growth inhibitor is perhaps the most important part of a floral preservative. Bacteria and fungi are everywhere and are ready to enter the cut surface of the stem and multiply. Prior to actual decay symptoms, cells of the water-transporting tissues can become blocked with microorganisms, inhibiting water uptake. Conservantes florales like Superwetter® and Superwetter Roses® have a perfect pH regulator with bactericides and fungicides. Green Shine® prevents premature withering of flowers. Solutions like Blossomer® encourages blossoming of floral buds.

As soon as flowers are harvested and the supply of water from roots is interrupted, they begin to lose humidity that cannot be replaced even if flowers are soaked in water. FlashWetter® consists of an instantaneous hydration pre-treatment for all types of cut flowers. This conservantes florale -

• Flows through the vascular system, diluting proteins, polyfenols and chinones
