REFRIGERATION AND FREEZING OF FRUITS AND VEGETABLES

COLD STORAGE OF FRUITS AND VEGETABLES IN TUNISIA AND AFRICA

STAF has developed its own know-how in the storage of fruits and vegetables, as it skillfully provides such service to its partners.

We believe that our partners should have the chance to store their products in the best conditions with the lowest possible costs, all while avoiding losses in weight and quality.

EXPERTISE IN COLD STORAGE OF FRUITS AND VEGETABLES

The majority of fruits and vegetables are fresh alive when they enter the cold room : they breathe. These are fragile foods.

Also, when designing cold rooms for fruits and vegetables, we systematically take into account :

  • The nature of the product, its storage density and the inlet and outlet temperatures.
  • The humidity of the air, which must be controlled inside the cold room.
  • The quantities introduced and the entry and exit rates.
  • The type of storage (wrapped or not, shelving or not, crate or palox, etc.).
  • The amount of weight loss tolerated.
  • The projected storage duration.

At the same time, the product must be guaranteed the best possible storage quality so that it retains its physico-chemical properties, by taking into account :

  • The physical characteristics of the product.
  • The ability specific to each fruit and each vegetable to withstand refrigeration.
  • The maximum acceptable storage time for each product.
  • Heat and gases released by certain products.
  • Odors released by certain products.
  • Maturation techniques for products stored in cold rooms.
