Wrapping artichoke heads in the different wrapping films slowed the rate of weight loss, had the highest compactness and gave the highest value of L value, resulted in lighter color comparatively to the highest ones obtained from unwrapped heads. Artichoke heads wrapped with polypropylene film or polyethylene film were perceived to have the highest intensities of freshness, greenness and compactness. Wrapping artichoke heads with polypropylene film produced an improvement in market quality; it would reduce weight loss percentage, color change and maintained ascorbic acid content and gave product with good appearance after 28 days of storage at 0 °C and 95 % RH.
