Industrial Refrigeration: A Game Changer for Agricultural Cold Chains

Fresh food is highly perishable. To remain tasty and fresh, agricultural products must be transferred and stored using proper cold chains. Otherwise, their quality and freshness will be compromised. That is why industrial refrigeration plays a critical role in the modern agricultural field. 

At Cold Logic, we are leaders in the industrial refrigeration field. As a family-oriented company, we are passionate about everything we do. We regard ourselves as business partners to our clients, not just industrial refrigeration providers. Over the years, we have provided industrial refrigeration services to various clients in the agricultural field. 

Here are some of the industrial refrigeration solutions we offer to the agricultural industry:

Ripening Rooms

Agricultural products, such as fresh fruits, should be ripened in temperature-controlled atmospheres. At Cold Logic, we have the latest patented technology in ripening room industrial refrigeration. This technology will help you achieve the perfect ripening room environment for your agricultural products. All our ripening room industrial refrigeration solutions are specifically designed to meet each client’s requirements. 

We provide full industrial refrigeration solutions for this stage. These include all refrigeration and electrical requirements, control systems, and cool-room panel work (including gas-tight doors and racking). To make the process a success, we also provide the correct ethylene injection systems. Our solutions allow fresh fruits such as bananas, avocados, mangoes, and citrus to achieve their full potential.

Hydro Cooling

After harvesting, agricultural products should be immersed in ice or cold water. This process stops the ripening of fresh fruits and vegetables. So they do not overmature or spoil. That is exactly what our hydrocooling industrial refrigeration solutions offer. 

At Cold Logic, we have designed and installed hydrocoolers ranging up to 50 Tonnes/hr. You can rely on our industrial refrigeration to keep your veggies from getting squishy and soft. Our hydro-cooling techniques also slow the water loss of fruits and vegetables. Using our industrial refrigeration solutions, your agricultural products will remain edible for longer. Our hydrocoolers also slow the growth of microorganisms, such as mould and bacteria.

Cold Storage 

This step of industrial refrigeration is crucial to preserve agricultural products’ quality from deteriorating. As highly perishable products, fresh fruits and vegetables must be stored in temperature-controlled rooms. The quality of your agricultural products depends highly on the effectiveness and efficiency of cold storage. That is why these industrial refrigeration solutions must continuously operate at peak performance. 

Reliable industrial refrigeration is not just about keeping cold storage at the desired temperature. Other factors, such as humidity, can also affect the quality, weight, and shelf-life of agricultural products. That is why the humidity levels should also be controlled inside cold storage rooms. At Cold Logic, we take extreme care and consideration in choosing the correct considerations for any industrial refrigeration solution. Over the years, we have constructed more than 300,000 m2 of cold storage space across Australia.
