After you use the containers for a while, do they get saturated with ethylene and become unable to absorb more?

I bought a set of Tupperware-like containers called "Always Fresh Containers." The bananas I put in one lasted a week longer than the control bananas left on top of the container.
The science behind it is that the container's plastic contains Zeolite, a mineral which has been found to absorb ethylene gas.
