Humidity control and drying for fruit and vegetable freezing, processing and packing: FAQs

Why is dehumidification important in the quick-freezing of fruits and vegetables?

Humidity control is essential if you quick-freeze fruit and vegetables, as excess water vapour can condense on the cool surfaces found on your packaging equipment and in your cold stores.

This can cause frost on your frozen fruit and vegetables, compromising their quality, taste and texture. It can also cause your products to fall short of food safety standards and expire sooner on shelves.

High humidity in these environments is also associated with slippery floors, icicles and fog. These spatial hazards can become a real threat to your teams’ health and safety, as well as their long-term productivity.

Dehumidification is also important to protect the condition of your equipment, as few things endanger your apparatus more than moisture damage and ice build-up.

If you need dehumidification units to keep moisture levels under control, reach out to our team for a free consultation so we can recommend the most fitting solutions for your facilities.

How does high humidity affect the quality of frozen fruits and vegetables?

High humidity levels allow frost to tarnish your fruit and vegetables, spoiling the appearance, texture, taste and nutritional value of your produce. Long term, this can also negatively affect the shelf-life of your goods and the compliance of your products.

To keep humidity levels in check at all times, dehumidification technology is a must-have for practically any type of frozen fruit and vegetable processing facility.

What type of dehumidifiers are best suited for cold environments in fruit and vegetable processing?

Thanks to their exceptional performance in cold conditions and outstanding drying capacity, desiccant dehumidifiers and industrial dryers are the best moisture control systems for frozen fruit and vegetable processing.

Talk to our experts to discuss your exact requirements, and we can ensure you are supplied with a solution that delivers the optimal blend of performance and economy.

How does dehumidification contribute to food safety in fruit and vegetable processing?

By eliminating excess moisture, dehumidification technology halts mould growth and bacteria spread during fruit and vegetable processing. It also prevents frost from forming on your goods, which helps further support your foods’ safety.

Why is dehumidification important during the packing of frozen fruits and vegetables?

Cardboard, paper and other packaging materials are susceptible to high moisture levels. To ensure they remain intact along the supply chain, it is vital to install capable dehumidifiers or dryers wherever you store these goods.

How does dehumidification help extend the shelf-life of frozen fruits and vegetables?

By preventing moisture and frost-related spoilage, dehumidifiers help extend the shelf-life of your frozen fruits and vegetables. In practice, this ensures that your products remain fresh, flavoursome, nutritious and safe to eat for longer.
