Storage
Storage using ULO - extra low oxygen extends the shelf life with no major losses. It means storing only at low temperatures but also with values O2 and CO2 which are different in cooler boxes from the values of the external atmospheric air.
Storage ULO
Storage ULO allows to extend the shelf life to be economically interesting and in the same time to keep high level of quality. Below are the most important advantages of storing in ULO boxes:
- Better preservation of primary color
- Significantly stronger crop
- Longer storage time
- Less risk of peel browning
Thanks to this technology we can deliver the fruit in a perfect condition. The advantage of storage using ULO offset higher investment. This applies both to individual fruit growers as well as cold storages and warehouses of fruits. All above mentioned is valid only in case all conditions are met.
It means the main factors affecting the quality of storage:
- quality of fruit
- storage temperature
- O2 concentration
- CO2 concentration
- gas-tightness in the box
