Increase your fruits' lifetime with controlled-atomsphere storage

For some fruit, like apples, kiwifruit, or avocados, controlled-atmosphere warehousing increases lifespan by preserving the quality of stored products.

The Controlled Atmosphere technique slows down the physiological processes of warehoused fruit and increases their storage time. The term used for this process is ‘putting to sleep’… Controlled-atmosphere storage enables the quality of your fruit to be preserved for 6 to 10 months with no weight loss or dehydration. This technology also allows a reduction in the use of chemicals.
