CONSUME RIPE, HIGH-QUALITY FRUIT ALL YEAR ROUND

WITH THIS RIPENING PROCESS

The current trend shows that today’s consumers expect access to ripe, high-quality fruit all year round.

The process of ripening fruit (bananas, avocados, mangoes, and tropical fruit) requires creating the optimum conditions needed for the proper ripening of fruit.

The main principle in ripening is generating a balanced air flow that allows fruit to ripen gradually and evenly in a confined space.
These confined spaces are equipped with air coolers with a large heat-transfer area to limit dehydration and loss of raw materials.
The ripening cycle lasts between 3 and 5 days.

Clauger offers packaged, tailor-made fruit-ripening solutions that combine air treatment and energy production.
As a refrigeration specialist, Clauger can design eco-friendly installations (natural refrigerant systems: NH3 and CO2), and work towards optimising overall energy consumption.

Compagnie Fruitière entrusts Clauger to complete the project for its new fruit-trading site at Rungis International Market.

FRESH FRUIT

From harvest to plate

Rapid cooling of your fruit

Rapid cooling of post-harvest fruit improves the preservation over time, as well as the organoleptic qualities.

It is especially important for red fruit and kiwi.

Optimise your maturing / ripening process

The process of ripening fruit (bananas, avocados, mangoes, and tropical fruit) requires creating the conditions needed for the optimum ripening of fruit.

Store your fruit in a controlled atmosphere

For some fruit, like apples, kiwi, or avocados, controlled-atmosphere warehousing increases lifespan by preserving the quality of stored products.

PROCESSED FRUIT

Complementary know-how

Deep-freezing

Deep-freezing is a low-temperature preservation technique which preserves the taste and vitamin content, as well as the color and texture of fresh fruit. Red fruits (raspberries, blackberries) or stone fruits (peaches, apricots) lend themselves particularly well to freezing techniques.

Drying

Drying of fruits (prunes, apricots) requires dehydrating them which ensures their preservation.

Transforming

With dual-expertise in refrigeration and air treatment, Clauger supports the agri-food industry in its various process applications, such as the rapid cooling of compotes, while reusing energy to ensure a sustainable facility.
