International Produce

MTX recently provided a turnkey package for two pressurised ripening rooms and one blast chiller at International Produce.

The installation was external to the main facility and required enabling works prior to commencing the rooms construction.

A concrete plinth was designed and installed by MTX to provide a base for the rooms.  Three fully weatherproof rooms were then constructed on this base.

Refrigeration of the rooms was via externally mounted condensing units.  Each room also contained electrical heating and spray humidification to provide the optimum ripening conditions.

The blast chiller room allows the client a rapid cooling option for up to ten pallets of produce over a short period of time.

Each room also contained MTX’s unique pallet loading system to give the client the most flexibility possible.

The project was completed in May 2007.
