**6. Concluding Remarks**

The use of non-conventional tools to preserve and prolong the quality of minimally-processed fruits and vegetables seems to be the future trend to obtain improved final products. In particular, the application of the antimicrobial compounds into coatings and/or filling liquids should be further investigated due to their environmental friendliness and versatility. A combined approach of these technologies, through additive and synergistic interactions, could be useful to obtain innovative and safe minimally-processed products.
