Dynamic Pre-Cooling (Low Atmospheric Pressure – Wet Bulb Chambers): Specialized units designed for unpackaged chicory immediately after harvest. These control relative humidity and create low atmospheric pressure for rapid and uniform cooling.
Cold Room with Natural Airflow and Nebulized Atmosphere: Advanced chamber system combining gentle airflow with specialized nebulizers to maintain ideal humidity and protect delicate leaves from dehydration.
Low-Airflow Cold Room with Continuous Water Circulation: Designed for produce requiring very high humidity and minimal air movement (<25 air exchanges per hour). Humidity is maintained through continuous water flow.
IMPORTANT TIPS
Avoid storing chicory with ethylene-producing products for extended periods, as ethylene accelerates leaf drop, decay, and browning of leaf edges.
Remove ethylene using absorption or ventilation systems.
Handle with care — precise trimming and washing with approved disinfectants significantly reduce post-harvest losses.
Install ozone generators to combat fungal growth and maintain hygiene.
Use Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) to extend storage life and preserve freshness.
