Humidity control and drying for frozen food packing and transport: FAQs

Why is dehumidification important for freezing foods for transport?

When you are freezing your partners’ foodstuffs and packing them for transport, the ambient air in your cold stores and temperature-controlled vehicles must be dried to a low humidity level.

If the humidity is allowed to exceed these low dew points, the subsequent condensation can destroy paper and cardboard packaging, and threaten the quality and safety of your clients’ consumables. Frost and rust can also cause further damage to your systems, sending costs soaring and impacting the continuity of your operations.

To address high levels of moisture present in the air, talk to our team about securing the right industrial dehumidifiers for your operations today.

What types of solutions are used in the freezing and transport of foods?

Thanks to their exceptional performance in cold conditions and the outstanding drying capacity of these solutions, desiccant dryers are best suited to dehumidify air in temperature-controlled vehicles. Hygrometers are also key to ensuring the right conditions are maintained before and during the journey.

If you need help determining the best dryer or measurement device for your operations, speak to our experts.

What are the optimal humidity levels for transporting frozen foods?

While the optimal humidity level will depend on the food items you transport, as a general rule of thumb, the ideal relative humidity (RH) should remain between 50% and 60% RH. This helps prevent ice formation and condensation on your products and packaging.

How do you determine the correct size dehumidifier for a refrigerated transport vehicle?

Choosing the most appropriately sized dehumidifier for your transport vehicles depends on several factors, including:

  • The moisture load your new solution must handle

  • The temperature this equipment has to operate in

  • The energy efficiency of your chosen system

  • The durability of this equipment

  • The long-term maintenance requirements of your new solution

Speak to our experts for bespoke advice on choosing the right transport and logistics climate control solutions for your needs.

Can I buy your dehumidification systems for packing and quick-freezing online?

We don’t make our humidity management equipment available to purchase online to ensure that every system we design, manufacture and supply fits your exact requirements. By taking a consultative approach with a highly-trained expert, we make sure that you are only recommended equipment that meets your needs – and fulfils these in the most efficient, cost-effective way possible.

Across all of our products, VAT-registered companies can get a quote very quickly by pressing 'I want to buy' and inserting your enquiry and contact details.

How soon can you supply your humidity control systems to my logistics and transport company?

This varies on a case-by-case basis. For some standard products, accessories and consumables, we can provide day-to-day delivery. For larger orders or more bespoke technology, there may be a longer lead time.

By reaching out to our experts we can put you in touch with your nearest local supplier so you can receive the products you require in the most timely manner possible.

Do you sell your dehumidification technology to private consumers?

No. Dantherm Group’s moisture management systems and measuring devices for quick freezing and packing are sold only to transport and logistics companies directly from our offices, or via our extensive network of distributors.
