About Yofumo
We Can Make the World a Better Place

The Yofumo Story

At Yofumo, we are passionate about making the world a better place by extending the planet’s agricultural resources. There is an enormous amount of waste along the agricultural value chain from growers to industry and consumers. Our decontamination solutions are engineered to reduce waste at each point of the chain, dramatically increasing sustainability, efficiency, productivity and profitability.

Our solutions use natural ozone to gently, safely and effectively decontaminate organic substances and inorganic materials. Using our proprietary method, Yofumo Pro+ units decontaminate the greatest volume of organic material in the shortest amount of time, dramatically improving productivity, preserving value and significantly reducing waste.

We make decontamination solutions that are simple to use, well-designed and effective without using chemicals or presenting a safety risk to products or users.

Together, we can lighten our load on the planet with decontamination that is Natural, Safe and Effective.
