Packaging, storage and ripening

In the storage and ripening sectors, many companies with advanced products are already a fixture in the fight against food waste/loss in the first phase after the production process. Timing and circulation in storage is crucial for transport and distribution! There are also many benefits to be gained from smart packaging of products. This phase in the food cycle is decisive to get fresh products, fresly into the retail market.

Storage control

Controlled atmosphere storage extends shelf life. Different fruits and vegetables will have different criteria for adapted or conditioned storage. But also important for storage control:

Smart labeling

Scan throughput and collection in time!  So that measures can be taken in the event of imminent loss.

Smart and efficient packaging

Packaging works together with possibilities on storage, transport and ripening. Different fruits and vegetables will have differing criteria for packaging shape and materials. But also important in packaging:

```
Labeling
```
```
Possible reuse material
```

Preferation for biobased use of material (circular)

```
Use of Reusable packaging
```

Efficient ripening

Accurated efficient ripening prolonges storage and shelf life or can make an efficient timescedule for transport. Different fruits and vegetables will have differing criteria for efficient Ripening. But also important in the ripening process:

The shape and the design (boxes and the earodynamics of the equipment)

How the flow of air is as efficiently distributed and optimized among the pallets and boxes in the ripening room. Which means that there is homogeneous ripening.

Refridgeration technology

Cooling or searching for the right environmental atmosphere are influensers on distribution and storage of fresh products. Different fruits and vegetables will have differend criteria in climatisation. But also important in storage refridgeration technology:

The shape and the design (boxes and the earodynamics of the equipment)

Data history of the cooled products
