Cold Room Before Cherry Packaging

What is a Cold Room Before Packaging for Cherries? How Does It Work?

Due to its delicate structure and very short shelf life, cherries are one of the most delicate fruits that must be brought to the correct temperature immediately after harvest. If post-harvest field heat is not removed quickly, fruit quality decreases and shelf life is significantly shortened. Cold air chamber before cherry packaging is a vital system that ensures rapid cooling of the fruit after harvest, balancing the internal temperature and stopping microbial activities.

Frigocare Cooling, we offer high-tech solutions that preserve the freshness of cherries and prevent loss of color and aroma during the pre-packaging process.

1. Why Is Cooling Necessary Before Packaging Cherries? 🚀

After harvesting, cherries are still a "living" tissue and continue to respire at high rates. If cooling is delayed, the following losses begin within 6-12 hours:

●     Loss of Taste and Sugar: During respiration, the fruit consumes its own sugar.

●     Visual Deterioration: The stems dry out (turn brown), the fruit flesh becomes soft and loses its shine.

●     Waste Rate: Due to water loss, the product weight decreases and shrinkage begins.

Frigocare systems stop this process by reducing the core temperature of the cherry from 30°C to 2-4°C in a very short time.

2. Ideal Enclosure and Operating Parameters ⚙️

We calibrate our rooms according to the following parameters so that the cherries enter the packaging line "alive":

3. Working Stages of Frigocare Cooling System🏗️

1.   Pre-Cooling:The harvested cherries are quickly taken into the room. With the intense air flow, the external temperature and core temperature of the product are shocked.

2.   Humidity Balance:The system automatically keeps the humidity rate above 90% to prevent the fruit from losing water during cooling.

3.   Stabilization: The temperature of the fruit is equalized before entering the packaging line. In this way, condensation (sweating) and the resulting fungus formation on the fruit are prevented during packaging.

4. Our Technological Equipment📦

●     Natural Fluid Systems: Environmentally friendly and energy efficient cooling with future technology CO₂ (R-744). 🌱

●     High Insulation Panels:High density sealed structures that completely block the external environment heat.

●     Smart Automation: Remotely monitorable control units that work synchronously according to the speed of the packaging line.

●     Hygienic Shelves and Doors: Food-safe, stainless and easy-to-clean equipment.

5. Areas of Use and Investment Advantages✅

These special rooms are not just a storage area, they are a quality control center.

●     Export Facilities: Guarantees the freshness of the stem demanded by global markets.

●     Processing Centers: Ensures that the fruit remains firm during calibration and selection processes before packaging.

●     Logistics Centers: Creates buffer zones that prevent the cold chain from breaking.
