Humidity control and drying for food storage facilities: FAQs

Why is dehumidification preferred over heating in food storage?

Unlike heaters, dehumidification systems physically remove moisture from your storage settings. That is why, when heaters are switched off and the temperature in your stores drops, condensation forms rapidly, greatly endangering your food products. Dehumidifiers prevent this from occurring, all while protecting the flavour, texture and quality of your produce.

Humidity control units are also more economical in the long term. Instead of requiring every corner of your food storage centres to be kept at a constant temperature, these solutions target the water vapour present in the air in a more economical manner.

On top of this, dry air technology can better maintain stable atmospheres. While heaters can sustain constant temperatures indoors, the relative humidity (RH) can still fluctuate. Over time, this can harm your food, equipment and building integrity. Dehumidifiers don’t allow this to happen.

If you need help finding the right energy-saving dehumidification solutions for your facilities, get in touch with our experts today.

What are the ideal humidity levels for food storage facilities?

While the perfect climate will depend on the precise goods you store, it is generally recommended to keep food storage facilities between 50% and 60% RH (relative humidity).

What types of food benefit from dehumidification in storage?

Fruits, vegetables, breads and confectionery – as well as raw materials like sugar, flour, starch syrup and powdered milk – can spoil when stored in environments saturated with large amounts of water vapour.

Can dehumidification improve energy efficiency in food storage?

Yes. Instead of using heaters to manage high humidities in your storage facilities, dehumidifiers represent a more efficient, cost-effective alternative.

Combining decades of expertise, high-quality components and a steadfast commitment to European engineering, the dehumidification solutions we supply lead the way in economy and efficiency.

Speak to our team of experts today to begin your free consultation.

Can dehumidifying extend the shelf-life of food products?

Yes. By maintaining low humidity levels, dehumidifiers prevent spoilage, mould growth and degradation of your moisture-sensitive products, improving their shelf-life.

How does dehumidification prevent mould and bacterial growth in food storage?

Humidity control physically absorbs moisture from your food storage environments, creating dry climates where mould, mildew and bacteria cannot grow or spread.

How does dehumidification protect packaging in food storage?

Dehumidifiers prevent damp air from weakening cardboard boxes, corroding cans, warping plastic and destroying labels on your packaging in food stores.

What types of dehumidifiers are used in food storage facilities?

Thanks to their outstanding drying capacity, industrial dryers and desiccant dehumidifiers are the best solutions for dry air food storage facilities.

Coupled with easy-to-use moisture measuring devices, achieving the optimal conditions in every corner can become an effortless formality.
