Frozen food aisles, no-refrigerated exhibition island, and storage facility have low humidity and provoke dehydration and weight loss in food.
Humidifying working areas extends and improves the preservative process of food, reducing the loss of weight and preserving the freshness of the food, so as to avoid dehydratation and extends the preservation and nutritional quality of the food.
The fog system to preserve the freshness of food is utilized in the following production areas:
- grocery department stores
- fishes displays
- refrigerators and cold rooms
- growth and seasoning rooms
- fish areas in supermarket
- fruit and vegetable warehouses
- fish warehouses
- fishing boats
- harvesting machines
- greenhouses
- wine cellars
With the use of a professional hygrostat you can control automatically the level of humidity of the areas.
Humidification of fruits, vegetables, fish, meat and cheese
Fruit and vegetables are largely composed of water. The loss of freshness is mainly due to a quick dehydration of the product, following the evaporation of the water, due to a difference between the values contained in the vegetables and the values in the surrounding air.
By means of a misting system, the humidity level in the air re-establishes its optimal values, blocking the dehydration process. Additionally, a Italfog fog system, for the adiabatic rule, reduces the temperatures and cools down the products displayed at the counters.
Fish products are also subject to the loss of freshness by dehydration, as they are composed of more than 70% of water. In addition, the misting system can control the spread of
smells in the surrounding areas.
Some types of meat, cold cuts and cheese are also subject to dehydration and, to preserve and mature, they need suitable special microclimate that can be naturally recreated by the misting systems.
Italfog fog system
ITALFOG produces and distributes misting systems that are used for the humidification of sales counters and working areas.
ITALFOG misting system re-establishes the humidity level to optimal values, blocking the dehydration process. Italfog misting system periodically emit an ultra light mist of water directly onto the product, usually for 1 to 5 seconds every 10-15 minutes.
Due to their teeny dimensions, these small water droplets evaporate without wetting, keeping humidity and coolness in the environment air, reducing dehydration, and maintaining product weight and condition.
The application of misting systems on fruit and vegetables harvesting machines is very easy and it can block the process of dehydration from the first harvest.
The advantages resulting from using our misting systems on food products are:
- dehydration block
- decrease in the weight loss of the product
- longer freshness
- the temperature cools down naturally
- it facilitates the process of ripeness of some kinds of fruit
- it controls the spread of odours
ITALFOG fog systems are easily installed and their cost is paid off in a short time while also obtaining a considerable economic benefit.
