GAME-CHANGING ADVANTAGES
Vacuum cooling is a revolutionary process of cooling fresh produce with many inherent advantages such as
Ultra-Fast Cooling
Rapid cooling time to 2 degrees centigrade within minutes
Space Saving
Truck mounted or portable to move from one place to another place
Reduces Waste
Reduces the amount of spoilage
Energy Saving
It reduces the energy consumption of cold storage as the product has already attained minimum temperature
Longer Shelf Life
Rapid cooling reduces probability of bacteria growth and increases shelf life
Reduces Respiration & Ethylene Production
Reducing respiration rate increases the quality of fresh produce
Versatility
Vacuum cooling technology is highly versatile and considerably enhances the quality of many varieties of fresh produce, such as Lettuce, Broccoli, Mushrooms, Celery, Cilantro, Leeks, Collards, Endive, Sweet Corn, Parsley, Cabbage, etc., and all kinds of fresh flowers.

Temperature is the most important factor affecting a flower’s life after harvesting. Flowers should be cooled immediately after harvesting and stored at a temperature of 2 to 5 degrees centigrade in order to extend their vase life. Vacuum cooling of flowers can preserve their freshness and extend their vase life by up to three times.
Pre-cooling flowers also help in reducing respiration rate, transpiration rate, and ethylene release during transportation and distribution.
