Extending shelf life with controlled storage

DCA Pro from Tunable and Storex measures gases produced during fruit storage, allowing growers to take timely steps to deal with fermenting or damaged produce.

During storage, fruit such as pears and apples emits gases that can be early indicators of fermentation. Tunable and Storex have jointly developed DCA Pro for analysing gas during fruit storage in a dynamic controlled atmosphere (DCA), enabling fruit growers to accurately and reliably monitor produce. As a result, they can optimise the storage environment and avoid quality losses. The fruit remains firm, its shelf life is extended, and dependence on post-harvest chemicals such as 1-MCP is reduced. At the same time, this intuitive system is extremely user-friendly. It includes automatic sampling and cloud-based reports and provides farmers with clear, actionable findings.
