Three types of packagings were evaluated: wooden crate; ardboard boxes; and a new packaging made of recycled polyethylene thermosinjected structure with 10% fodder fiber associated with a polypropylene tray, thermoformed in the exclusive design for persimmon. Check-all-that-apply (Cata) questions were used for the sensory characterization of fruits, revealing differences among samples throughout storage time regarding persimmon sensory attributes and consumer preference. Consumer acceptance of fruits from the wooden crate and cardboard box decreased from the first and fifth day onwards, respectively, as storage time progressed, differing from those from the new packaging, whose appearance was liked up to the ninth day. Persimmon transported in the new packaging showed superior quality throughout shelf life. The new packaging, with an appropriate design, maintains the sensory characteristics of persimmon for a longer time than the other studied packagings. aDiospyros kaki var. sylvestris aPackaging aPostharvest technology aDiospyros Kaki aEmbalagem aPós-Colheita aAcceptance aCheck-all-that-apply questions aPostharvest1 aREZENDE, C.
