Ozone in Wholesale Cut Flower Storage
The shelf life of cut flowers in storage is affected by ethylene gas production and the spread of disease.
Ozone will effectively stop the buildup of ethylene gas produced by some varieties and will increase the safe storage period for many varieties of cut flowers.
Ozone will also destroy airborne organisms and reduce losses caused by the spread of disease.
The cost of the cure is minimal and the savings are significant.
For small flower storage areas the Oxyzone C80 CUBE will be sufficient. Larger rooms will require 1 or more of the Oxyzone Silver single lamp models. The ozone levels must be kept low and even, requiring the use of multiple smaller units in a large facility.
