General Tips for Almyra (Sea Fennel / Salicornia)

Storage temperatureRelative Humidity (RH)Duration
Storage temperature: 2° - 3° C
Relative Humidity (RH): 90%-95%
Duration: 15-20 days

Low-Pressure Pre-Cooling Chambers (Wet Bulb Type): Specialized systems suitable for rapid pre-cooling of freshly harvested, unpackaged almyra. These chambers maintain controlled humidity and reduced atmospheric pressure, resulting in a fast temperature drop throughout the product.

Dynamic Pre-Cooling (High Suction Capacity Chambers): Detailed engineering ensures precise airflow and temperature absorption for uniform cooling down to the product core. Suitable for both packaged and unpackaged produce.

Dynamic Cooling: Multi-point monitoring continuously maintains optimal storage parameters across the entire chamber volume, ensuring perfect conditions 24/7. Dynamic Cooling increases shelf life by 15%–20% compared to conventional systems.

Natural Airflow Cold Room with Mist Atmosphere: A specialized storage system that combines natural cold-air circulation with fine mist humidification, ideal for delicate products highly sensitive to airspeed and requiring very high humidity.

IMPORTANT TIPS
  • Rapid pre-cooling in Dynamic Pre-Cooling Chambers is essential immediately after harvest.
  • Maintain the cold chain through every stage of handling and distribution.
  • Dynamic Cooling is crucial for optimal product preservation.
  • Install ozone generators to prevent fungal contamination.
  • Use modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) to extend shelf life.
  • Wash almyra before storage using a low-residue disinfectant to reduce microbial load and prevent pathogen growth.
