High-quality solutions for the fruit and vegetable sector
Tecnica del Freddo boasts extensive experience in the fruit and vegetable sector, ensuring optimal preservation of both fresh and long-life products.
Thanks to years of work dedicated to food management and processing, the company has developed custom system solutions that respect the characteristics of the most delicate products, where temperature and humidity play a crucial role in maintaining their quality and freshness. Fruit and vegetables are therefore effectively preserved, minimising deterioration and ensuring products are always fresh and ready for sale and consumption.
Refrigeration is the heart of fruit and vegetable preservation
In the fruit and vegetable sector, the quality and freshness of the final product depend primarily on correct thermal management. Once harvested, fruits and vegetables are still “living”, breathing and ripening. This process, if left uncontrolled, leads to rapid spoilage, loss of nutrients and a significant reduction in shelf life. Refrigeration is therefore not optional, but essential.
Tecnica del Freddo specialised in the design and installation of cutting-edge refrigeration systems, designed to rapidly reduce the field heat (pre-cooling) and to maintain perfectly stable climatic conditions (temperature, humidity and ventilation) during storage. This meticulous control slows the product’s metabolism, preserving its organoleptic characteristics, firmness, and aesthetic appearance, while drastically reducing waste.
Comprehensive services
From the creation of controlled-atmosphere storage rooms to installation and maintenance, Tecnica del Freddo offers custom solutions for every type of fruit and vegetable, ensuring optimal cold-chain management.
Maintenance and support: ensuring consistent refrigeration
In the delicate fruit and vegetable sector, machine downtime is not only an inconvenience, but a potential economic loss for the entire harvest. Tecnica del Freddo has therefore elevated support to an essential service, guaranteeing its customers maximum reliability through a strategic preventive maintenance plan. Our qualified technicians carry out periodic checks, energy efficiency tests and precise calibrations, and use remote monitoring technologies. This proactive approach prevents unexpected failures, optimises consumption, and ensures that your system always operates under ideal performance and safety conditions.
In an urgent situation, speed is crucial. We will be your reliable partner to handle emergency responses. Thanks to our many years of experience and an extensive operational structure, we are able to intervene on any type of industrial refrigeration system with speed and effectiveness, minimising downtime and safeguarding the value of your products.
Our services
Cold rooms
Cold rooms are closed, temperature-controlled environments used for storing large quantities of fresh produce. The storage temperature varies according to the type of product: for example, fruit and vegetables are generally stored between 0 °C and 10 °C, with high relative humidity (85–95%) to avoid dehydration.
These systems can be static or with forced ventilation; the latter option, implemented by Tecnica del Freddo, allows for much more uniform and rapid cooling of the entire mass of products.
Gas ripening and storage chambers
Special chambers are used to control the ripening of certain fruits, such as bananas, kiwis, and tomatoes. These products are stored in controlled atmospheres (CAs) that actively manipulate the internal gases, reducing oxygen levels and increasing carbon dioxide (CO₂). This advanced process serves to drastically slow down metabolic processes and significantly extend shelf life without compromising the final quality of the product.
Low-temperature display refrigerators
These systems represent the final link in the cold chain, and are used directly in points of sale (large-scale distribution and retail stores). Their goal is to keep fruit and vegetables at optimal temperatures for final consumption, maintaining conditions that do not damage their visual appearance or cause thermal shock.
Tecnica del Freddo provides display refrigeration solutions that combine efficiency, reliability, and design, ensuring product freshness and attractiveness until the moment of purchase.
