Installation of cold storage to preserve fruit
Installing a cold storage to preserve fruit is an effective and least toxic investment because when kept in cold storage, the air with low temperature will prevent bacteria from entering and damaging the fruit instead. because of the use of toxic chemicals to marinate fruits. As a result, the health of the user is also guaranteed.
If not refrigerated, most fresh fruits and vegetables will not stay fresh for several days. As soon as the fruit is harvested, it begins to be attacked by bacteria. By keeping fruits and vegetables in cold storage will prevent the growth of bacteria, ensuring maximum spoilage of fruits and vegetables.
Another benefit of cold storage is that you can customize the temperature when storing fruits and vegetables. Technical staff from Kim Ngoc Dang company can help you adjust the temperature up and down according to the requirements of the fruit you need to store and preserve.
The ripening time of each fruit and the optimal storage requirements for temperature and humidity for fruits and vegetables will vary. For example, cool season fruits and vegetables such as kale or sprouts should be stored at 0oC – 2oC; Warmer season fruits and vegetables such as cucumbers and tomatoes should be stored at a higher temperature of about 7oC – 10oC.
