Ozone in Fruit & Vegetable Cleaning & Storage

During post harvest storage, surface infections on produce can spread and cause significant losses of the crop. The use of gaseous ozone can reduce these losses and maximise returns.

The shelf life of produce in cold storage can be extended by the use of gaseous ozone. Ozone in the air within a cold storage room can retard the growth of microorganisms in the air and on the surface of the produce.

Ozone is also effective in breaking down ethylene gas which is given off by some fruits and accelerates the ripening process. The reduction of ethylene gas will effectively reduce the ripening effect of mixed produce held in the same area.
