Specialized Storage for Root Vegetables

Potatoes and onions require unique storage conditions that differ significantly from other produce. Our specialized systems combine ventilation, refrigeration, and humidity control to prevent sprouting, disease, and weight loss during extended storage periods.

Proper storage can extend the marketable life of potatoes and onions by 8-12 months, allowing growers and distributors to time their sales for optimal market prices while maintaining product quality.

Our systems are designed for bulk storage in bins, boxes, or loose pile configurations, with scalable capacities from small farms to large commercial operations.

Storage Challenges We Solve

Understanding the unique needs of root vegetables

🥔

Potato Storage

Sprouting: Controlled by temperature below 4°C and CIPC treatment
Sugar accumulation: Prevented with gradual temperature changes
Disease spread: Managed through ventilation and humidity control
🧅

Onion Storage

Neck rot: Prevented with proper curing and low humidity
Sprouting: Controlled at temperatures below 2°C
Root growth: Minimized with low humidity (65-70%)

Why Choose Our Storage Systems?

Engineered specifically for root vegetable preservation

Advanced Ventilation

High-capacity air movement removes field heat, CO2, and moisture. Essential for maintaining product quality.

Gradual Temperature Control

Slow cooling prevents stress-related damage. Programmable ramp-down rates protect product quality.

Humidity Control

Balance between preventing weight loss and avoiding disease. Different zones for different crops.

Integrated Curing

Pre-storage curing rooms for onions and wound healing for potatoes. Essential for long-term storage.

Sprouting Prevention

Temperature management and optional CIPC/ethylene application systems for extended dormancy.

Remote Monitoring

24/7 monitoring of temperature, humidity, and CO2 levels with instant alerts and data logging.
