Unripe bananas travel from all around the world but always end up ripe and yellow on the supermarket shelves. This experiment shows us how.

Chemistry - Chemical Industries - Learning Points.

Millions of bananas are exported across the world from Ecuador, Costa Rica and Colombia.

Bananas are exprted whilst they are unripened and green, so they don't get bruised or damaged.

Supermarkets use ethylene gas to ripen the imported bananas ready for sale.

Ethelyne occurs naturally in fruit as it ripens.
