Ethylene Production: Very low
Controlled Atmosphere: Not recommended

Dynamic Pre-Cooling (High-Suction Capacity Chambers): Engineered for uniform temperature absorption and airflow distribution, ensuring consistent cooling throughout the product mass.

Natural Airflow Cold Room – Mist Atmosphere: A specialized storage environment where natural air circulation combined with misting maintains ideal conditions for humidity-sensitive products.

Low-Airflow Cold Room with Continuous Water Circulation: Designed for products requiring high humidity and minimal air exchange (<25 times per hour). Humidity is stabilized by continuous water flow.

IMPORTANT TIPS
  • Pre-cool rapidly in Dynamic Pre-Coolers with high suction capacity and maintain the cold chain throughout handling and distribution.
  • Avoid storing mushrooms with products that emit ethylene or strong odors.
  • Maintain high CO₂ concentration, as it reduces browning and decay of caps and stems.
  • Carefully manage CO₂ levels to balance preservation without inducing off-flavors.
