Atmosphere Controlled Cold Storage for Grapes: Maximum Shelf Life and Quality
The right storage solution for grape producers and exporters determines market success. Atmosphere controlled (CA) cold storage for grapes slows down the respiration rate of the fruit by reducing the oxygen level in the environment and balancing the carbon dioxide. This technology delays ripening and extends the shelf life of the product by 3-4 times compared to traditional methods. As
Frigocare Cooling, we offer turnkey atmosphere-controlled warehouse solutions that control the biological activity of grapes and preserve freshness for months.

1. What is Atmosphere Controlled (CA) Storage? 🧪
While traditional warehouses only control the temperature, Frigocare CA systems; It manages temperature, humidity and gas composition (O₂, CO₂, Nitrogen) simultaneously.
● Low Oxygen (1–3%): Slows down the aging process of the fruit.
● Controlled Carbon Dioxide: Prevents decay and microbial development
● Ethylene Management: Keeps the fruit in "sleep mode" by filtering ethylene gas, which triggers ripening.
● High Relative Humidity (90–95%): Keeps the grape seeds plump and the stems green and fresh.

|
Smart Automation |
Possibility to instantly monitor O2 and CO2 levels from your mobile phone. |
3. Advantages for Manufacturers and Exporters💰
● Marketing Flexibility: Put the product on the market when the price is most affordable, not during the harvest rush.
● Export Range: Safe shipment by sea to distant markets (Asia, America) thanks to long-term preservation.
● Minimum Fire: Reduce wastage caused by decay, garbage rate and water loss by up to 30%.
● Sustainable Quality: Increase your brand value by preserving the taste, aroma and texture of the grapes as on the first day.
4. Project and Investment Process ✅
1. Analysis: Creation of ideal gas and temperature scenarios according to grape variety (Sultani, Red Globe, etc.).
2. Engineering: Gas tightness tests and high insulation room design.
3. Installation: Integration of sensitive sensors, gas controllers and cooling units.
4. Technical Support:Uninterrupted operation with remote monitoring and periodic calibration services.
