"Nam Dokmai" mango fruits at mature green stage in polystyrene trays were non-wrapped and wrapped with "Glad" and "Reynolds" and kept at room temperature (30.25 deg.celsius and 75 % RH. by average) for 10 day. Non wrapped and wrapped fruits with "Glad" and "Reynolds" had their color surface changed within 6 days. Firmness and titratable acidity of non-wrapped and wrapped fruits decreased during storage. Non-wrapped fruits had the most weight loss of 16.98 % while those wrapped with "Glad" had the least weight loss of 2.85 %. Color flesh of non-wrapped and wrapped fruits with "Reynolds" changed on the 4th day of storage and ripened with total soluble solids (TSS) 17.92 % and 16.45 % respectively while that of wrapped with "Glad" the color changed on the 6th day of storage with 15.57 % TSS, which was not significant from the non-wrapped and "Reynolds" wrapped fruits. Vitamin C content in the non-wrapped and wrapped fruits decreased rapidly within 3 days and remained more or less steady between 4 - 8 days. The fruits wrapped with "Glad" had longer storage, less fungal spoilage and better quality
