A container for storage of fruits or vegetables wherein the optimum environment, i.e., the optimum carbon dioxide to oxygen ratio, for the storage of said fruits or vegetable can be attained and maintained, thereby retarding maturation and spoilage thereof. The environment is controlled by providing a resin-coated nonwoven panel of limited carbon dioxide and oxygen permeability on an otherwise substantially impermeable container. The size of this panel is a function of its permeability, the amount and respiration rate of the contents, and the ratio of carbon dioxide of oxygen desired.
