Controlled Atmosphere (Controlled Atmosphere) Store

What is Controlled Atmosphere (CA) Storage?

Controlled Atmosphere Store is a post-harvest management technique where fresh product is stored under specific and regulated conditions that goes beyond simple refrigeration. This is achieved by controlling the levels of the following key atmospheric gases:

  • Oxygen (O₂): By reducing the oxygen, we put the produce in a low-activity state, which delays the natural aging process
  • Carbon Dioxide (CO₂): Higher levels of this gas help prevent spoilage and the natural breakdown of the produce (enzymatic activity).
  • Nitrogen (N₂): This is a neutral gas that is used to fill the space and help keep the other important gases (like oxygen and carbon dioxide) at the exact levels needed.
  • Humidity (RH): Precisely regulated to prevent moisture loss and maintain firmness.

Temperature: We precisely manage the air’s moisture to stop the produce from drying out and to keep it firm.

What is Controlled Atmosphere (CA) Storage?

At Izhar Foster, we specialize in cutting-edge Controlled Atmosphere (CA) storage designed to preserve the freshness and quality and extend the shelf-life of perishable produce far beyond conventional cold storage.

By precisely controlling these gas levels, we create an optimal environment that slows down the natural respiration and metabolic processes of fresh produce – delaying ripening, reducing spoilage and significantly extending shelf life, quality, and freshness.
