Absolutely! Fridge Friend is completely safe to use. Independent safety data confirms that there are no hazards associated with it under normal usage.

Fridge Friend uses a unique, inert,100% naturally blended unprocessed mineral, and is safe to have around your fresh produce. 

• It doesn’t chemically react with food or packaging,
• It’s stable and doesn’t degrade or produce any by-products, and
• It’s safe to be around food environments.

In fact, thanks to our sister company, Ecofresh Filters, it’s been trusted in commercial cool rooms for over 10 years in cafes, restaurants, and pubs across Australia.

If you’re curious, why not try one for yourself? With our 90-day money-back guarantee and 3-year replacement warranty, there’s no risk—just fresher produce and a happier fridge! 😊

Great question! To get the most out of your Fridge Friend®, here’s what we recommend:

1. If you have one Fridge Friend, place it where most of your fresh produce is—usually in the crisper drawer.
2. If you have two Fridge Friends, put one in the crisper drawer and the other in the main fridge compartment for even better coverage.
3. If you have three or more Fridge Friends, put one in each crisper drawer, another in the main fridge compartment and one in the freezer.

Wherever you place it, make sure your Fridge Friend® has plenty of airflow around it—avoid covering it up with produce or other items.

Modern fridges tend to have great airflow, so placement isn’t super critical. That said, keeping Fridge Friend® close to your fresh produce will give you the best results.

Most of our 30,000+ happy customers find that two or three Fridge Friends work perfectly for their needs.

Here’s how we recommend using them:

    •    One in the crisper drawer: This takes care of the majority of your fresh produce.

    •    One in the main fridge section: Perfect for any fresh produce stored outside the crisper and for reducing fridge odours.

    •    One in the freezer: Helps prevent ice buildup and avoids that dreaded “smelly ice” syndrome! 😊

If you want the best results, think about how much fresh produce you store and the size of your fridge. A larger fridge or more fresh produce might benefit from an extra Fridge Friend or two.

No, Fridge Friend doesn’t need refills! Unlike most alternatives, it’s guaranteed to last at least three years without any extra costs. At the end of three years, replacement refills are available, enabling you to reuse the casing.

All you need to do is give it a quick reset once a month by popping it in the microwave. This helps kill any bacteria and “nasties” it’s absorbed, and then it’s ready to go again—fresh and effective! It’s truly the gift that keeps on giving 😊.

For all the details, check out our setup and maintenance guide.

Fridge Friend uses a unique, inert, naturally blended mineral that extends the life of fresh produce by up to three weeks. 

These minerals work by:

• Absorbing ethylene gas (the ripening hormone released by produce).
• Reducing bacteria, odours, and excess moisture in your fridge.

Our mineral is entirely natural, unprocessed, non-toxic, and safe to use around your fresh produce. 

• It doesn’t chemically react with food or packaging,
• It’s stable and doesn’t degrade or produce any by-products, and
• It’s safe to be around food environments.

It is not baking soda, activated carbon, zeolites or potassium permanganate.

This mineral blend has been trusted in commercial cool rooms—think cafes, restaurants, and pubs—since 2013 through our commercial division, EcoFresh Filters.
