New Container for Refrigerated Transportation of Fruits and Berries
The most important link in the transfer of food products from manufacturer to consumer is transportation. An examination of various types of vehicles shows that the main reason for the deterioration in the quality of transported food products is their reloading from one type of transport to another, which violates optimal storage conditions. In order to prevent deterioration in the quality of products during transportation, it is proposed to place them in special transport containers equipped with individual refrigeration units. Regardless of the scheme used and means of transportation in a particular case, the product loaded and closed into a container by the manufacturer is constantly, during the entire transportation time, under the conditions of optimal storage parameters established by the manufacturer. The container is opened by the consumer only after the complete completion of the transportation cycle.
