CostaFruit S.A. operates in the strawberry sector and runs a modern, high-quality handling and export center, contributing significantly to the development of both the local region and the country by promoting Greek products to the most demanding international markets.
Within the framework of our collaboration, comprehensive studies and the overall facility design were carried out, based on product flow diagrams, maximum energy efficiency, optimized production processes, and future expansion planning.
More specifically, Isofruit Project was responsible for the design and study of the cold storage chambers, as well as the design of auxiliary areas (loading and unloading zones, storage areas, and order handling areas), ensuring proper cold chain continuity in accordance with ISO 22000 standards. The project also included product layout studies and the allocation of the total product volume within the facility.
Furthermore, our collaboration with CostaFruit included a comprehensive application study and the design of a Dynamic Pre-Cooling system, specifically adapted for Flowpack products. The system provides optimal and uniform cooling throughout the entire product volume and at the core of the pallet. Carefully engineered airflow patterns and high-precision sensors ensure consistent quality, extended shelf life, and reduced product losses.
In addition, we provided personnel training aimed at the correct implementation of procedures and the optimization of system operation in real conditions. As a result, CostaFruit acquired an advanced and energy-efficient pre-cooling system, specifically tailored to the requirements of Flowpack-packaged strawberries, enhancing product quality preservation and extending shelf life.
