We are Restrain
We are a manufacturer of unique ethylene generators since 2003 from our offices at Breda, The Netherlands. Restrain generators control sprouting in post-harvest potatoes, in a more natural way than other agri-chemical methods. This is because ethylene is a natural gas that leaves no chemical residue.
Who we are?
Our story begins in 1999, when we set out to find a safe, effective way to prevent sprouting in potatoes. Our research lead us to conducting trials with ethylene which were so successful the Restrain company was born. Since this time the Restrain system has been used to treat more than one million tonnes of seed, table and processing potatoes in 38 countries worldwide. Restrain is the natural replacement for CIPC in potato storages.

What we do?
Having proven Restrain for potato storage, we began testing our system for other crops and today Restrain is used across the world in diverse sectors including seed potatoes and onion storage. For tomatoes, bell peppers and bananas we enhance ripening.
