POSTHARVEST DIRECTORY 2019
Information to arrive with the
The Postharvest Directory is an information platform for the fruit and vegetable industry on materials, equipment, technologies and services to offer the best quality in these products.
Supports The Postharvest Directory counts on three supports: • The Internet portals www.postharvest.biz, and www.poscosecha.com • The electronic newsletters, Postharvest News and Poscosecha News • The Postharvest Directory and Directorio Poscosecha The portals count on daily updated information. The electronic newsletters arrive weekly to their subscribers; the English language version, each Monday. The Spanish language version, Tuesday and Friday, the last mainly to Spain, Portugal and Latin America. The directories are renewed annually at the beginning of the Northern Hemisphere summer. They were published until 2010 on paper and now are available on the Internet as free pdf.
Information in the Postharvest platform The process that culminates in enjoying a delicious cherry, for example, begins with the choice of variety, and culminates with the logistics that allow the product to reach the point of sales and the consumer's refrigerator. The last decades, the breeders started to pay great attention no only to yield and resistance characteristics of fruit and vegetables, but also to organoleptic and postharvest behaviour treats. The genetic material is of interest for the postharvest. The production techniques affect the final result, more or less directly. The first are part of the technology collected in the technical information of Postharvest, as well as about the best harvest moment, and cares during the next steps: packinghouse, storage, transport and display stages. New technologies are specifically dedicated to prevent the product from being damaged while it remains, already harvested, waiting to be moved to the warehouse. This is the case of the pallet covers developed by Paclife, to maintain the

quality of especially sensitive products such as cherries and blueberries. Cooling, and an adequate relative humidity rate, continues being the main tool to maintain the quality of produce, slowing the metabolism of fruits and vegetables, and their potential pathogens. The management of gases during storage and distribution is another key tool in the process, especially for prolonged conservation. The consumer wants produce to enjoy; to count on ripe products is a key point for an increasing number of markets. Ripening technology matters. Selection and grading focus on achieve homogeneous product in size and quality. New improvements are continuously added to the packinghouse lines to get a better detection of external and internal defects, also allowing to enjoy fruits with consistent quality, including sweetness and firmness levels. Reaching the market and the customer home demand machinery and packaging materials, from bulk presentations to the multitude of packaging "for the consumer", going through its different formats, capacities and materials. The social questioning of plastics has answers in the industry through the use of recycled materials, smaller amounts of raw materials, bioplastics, ... a real effort to have containers that guarantee food safety. Instruments that allow to control composition, texture, temperatures, gases, times, location, ...; the logistic tools to move the product from the field to the cool chambers; generation and dissemination of knowledge for a continuous advance of the industry ... are relevant aspects for postharvest. This new edition, the 21st. of the Directory, shows the offer of companies playing at first level, specialized in postharvest technology for fruits and vegetables, to reach the markets with top quality produce that satisfy the final consumer and guarantee the repetition of the purchase. It is made to help you in your business. The participating companies and we hope to achieve this goal.

We are currently working on the control of post-harvest diseases in other fruits and vegetables, including peppers and tomatoes. We will soon be marketing an integrated system for washing peppers that ensures the food safety of the product, controls decay in all varieties of peppers and achieves a considerable reduction in water consumption. Citrosol has treated over 200 million tons of fruit (citrus, pears, apples, bananas, etc.), and this has enabled us to offer the best solutions to thousands of customers all over the world and to design new developments in more effective and more efficient postharvest systems. We have a multidisciplinary team specialising in postharvest technology and biology, electromechanics and engineering, quality control, chemistry and microbiology, working in a matrix organization system, constantly alert to detect and satisfy the needs of our customers and society in our area of activity.

Productos Citrosol X3 NEBULIZER + GLOCUAT PC
Effective disinfecting has never been so easy and cheap as nowadays
The winning combination that CITROSOL has developed: the X3 Nebulizer mobile unit together with Glocuat PC, a “ready to use” biocidal disinfectant. The nebulizer mist behaves like a gas that can reach any area or surface in the packinghouse, and on contact with walls or objects it becomes a liquid with practically total fungicidal/bactericidal effectiveness. The mobile unit allows the introduction of sequential C+D (cleaning+disinfection) programs in all rooms and areas in the packinghouse, with very low structural costs.
greenhouse gases (CO2, CO, etc. ) during this process is, as a consequence, also lower.
DRENCH ON LINE
A new system for on-line application of fungicides which reduces treatment variability by keeping the concentration of fungicide constant
CITROSOL A S UE
CITROSOL has developed a complete line of citrus covering waxes that is also effective at much lower drying temperatures This low drying temperature wax allows energy savings of 60-70% compared to traditional waxes. The amount of energy needed for drying the wax is therefore reduced. Emission of
This fungicide application system is very superior to other systems presently used in pre-grading – both pools and on-line systems. It reduces treatment variability and keeps constant fungicide concentration. Besides, consumption of those agrochemicals is sharply reduced. It includes our technology ZERO SPILLAGE SYSTEM®.

FUMISPORE®
Excellent efficiencies in environmental Citrosol has developed FORTISOL® Ca Plus water-soluble salts of Ca, K and P that produce greater stimulation of the fruit’s natural defences against active pathogens in postharvest treatment of citrus. Fortisol® Ca has proven effectiveness in reduction and control of postharvest discolouration and in decay control. Fortisol® Ca PLUS has an enhanced efficiency in decay control. Both phytofortifiers are effective in controlling postharvest decay and rind breakdown.
disinfection and surface disinfection of cold stores
CITROSOL ZERO SPILLAGE SYSTEM®
Is the first industrial system that has a maximal efficiency and homogenity in controlling rot and decay It keeps the fungicide mixture in the drencher and deposit unchanged, allowing its continuous recycling and obtaining a constant efficiency in the treatment. At the same time, the need to treat surplus mixes is avoided, because their composition remains unchanged. The mixes can be recycled and used again during the whole citrus harvesting season.
FUMISPORE® has excellent efficiencies in environmental disinfection and surface disinfection of cold stores and several items of packinghouses, including machinery, as it is not corrosive or toxic, neither for humans or the environment (the security time is 4 hours). The combination active substance + ignition system can achieve high biocide efficiencies in any area due the high diffusion of the produced gas. Its efficacy in disinfecting field boxes and bins is also particularly high and relevant.

Deccofenato POT. Orthophenylphenol Deccoamonio Pot. Quaternary ammonium DECCO AEROSOL PLUS
DECCO AEROSOL PLUS is an innovative system of disinfection by cold fumigation using a full-discharge aerosol. This aerosol pot is fitted with a valve that is pressed until trapped, staying then opened until all the content in the pot is released and diffused into the air. Full-discharge pots Decco Aerosol Plus contain E-202 preservative. This food additive is effective against fungi, bacteria and yeasts. It is used in food industry as a preservative in refrigerated dough, pasta, prepizza, frozen pizza, beverages, tomato sauce, margarine, cheese, stuffing, yogurt, nuts, ice creams, sausages, etc, and it is authorized for fresh citrus treatment. Consequently, Decco Aerosol Plus can be used in empty rooms in any type of food and/or agriculture industry.
Decco Aerosol Plus full-discharge system is comfortable and safe for the user. It does not require any application equipment nor represents any risk for the facilities, since there is no combustion. Pots can be applied in any closed environment or room
such as cold rooms, chambers, manipulation rooms, cooled trucks, etc. Using preservative E-202 does not trigger the appearance of resistant strains of microbial flora; therefore, pots can be periodically used. Its frequent use allows reducing or maintaining low contamination levels, (avoiding fruit inoculation during fruit and vegetable postharvest period), as well as avoiding food contamination in food industry. Industrial applications in cold rooms or trailers showed a reduction of ambient contamination between 70-80%. Having in mind that this is a food preservative with the mentioned advantages, we can consider Decco Aerosol Plus as a powerful tool to be used in food industry at a low cost. MELANITEÂŽ
Decco New postharvest synthetic fungicide developed for Geotrichum and Penicillium control of citrus fruit. Melanite is formulated as emulsifiable concentrate (EC) with propiconazole.

Furthermore, ISOLCELL supplies complete solutions for the realization of controlled atmosphere normal refrigerated and low temperature rooms, including sandwich panels, gastight doors, impermeabilization and cooling plant. DCA, an exclusive Isolcell product
Scald control without postharvest chemical treatments
In the industry sector of the storage of apples and pears, a new technology called “DCA-CF Conservation” (Dynamic Controlled Atmosphere with the use of chlorophyll sensors) is being increasingly used.
The system, patented by the Government of Canada and developed by Dr. Angelo Zanella, is distributed throughout Europe exclusively by ISOLCELL SpA. This method replaces the static conservation parameters with dynamic ones resulting from the response given by the fruit itself. It uses a special sensor that measures the fluorescence emitted by apples and pears, thereby identifying the minimum threshold of oxygen tolerated by the fruit. The AC conservation takes place at a value slightly above that threshold, dynamically adjusted throughout the storage period. By lowering the level of oxygen in the storage chambers, internal metabolic activity is drastically reduced, which results in a better maintenance of internal and external characteristics defining product quality. Using this technology, ISOLCELL meets the growing consumer´s demand requiring produce free of chemical residues. Another advantage of DCA is the drastic reduction of internal browning in varieties like Granny, Braeburn, Pink Lady and Fuji. And also the exclusion of drencher as post-harvest treatment to apply antioxidants, significantly reduces the percentage of rotten fruits in storage. Due to this experience and to the close cooperation between research institutes, technology companies and customers, ISOLCELL has demonstrated once again to be at the forefront of fruit storage technology. This new storage technology is used with commercial purposes since 2003 and its use is extending rapidly overseas. The graph shows the development of DCA cameras in the last 7 years in Italy (blue), other countries (gray) and the sum of both values(green)...

It is a system for control and regulation of cold storage and degreening rooms. Electronic sensors that measure humidity, temperature and infrared CO2 sensors are used for automatic management of fruit storage and degreening/ripening rooms. Chambers equipped with CITROGAS-CONTROL achieve a more precise control of temperature and relative humidity. Besides, measurement and control of CO2 levels allows for optimal ventilation, reducing the operating time of the humidity, warming and refrigeration systems and thus achieving important energy savings.
We ensure that fresh fruit and vegetables reach the consumer without losses, with all their flavour, with maximum life, at the best moment for consumption.

In those degreening/ripening processes, the equipment also regulates automatically ethylene levels, adjusting its consumption and keeping the right concentration to make the process develop correctly. This leads to better degreening or ripening and longer shelf life, without decreases in the organoleptic traits, weight or skin appearance of the fruit. This system permits connection to a PC on which all the relevant parameters of its functioning are recorded.

The pantented GK4/P sachets are used to reduce the ethylene level in a very effective way during the transport and storage of a wide range of fruit and vegetables, both in the wholesale and retail. Easyfit Filter EF (100) (75) (50)
The Easyfit filter, manufactured under high quality and R&D standards, has not only been designed thinking about the produce to be protected but also the people who assemble it.
The ethylene and other volatiles emitted by fruits and vegetables accelerate their ripening, senescence and rotting. The patented GKI blankets reduce the concentration of contaminants during transport and distribution, thus maintaining quality and extending fruit postharvest life.
Blankets GK4/P (M B+P) The etylene emitted by plantain accelerates the ripening, decay and incidence of soft-green fruit during the transport in green, as well as losses by rotting and over-ripening after the artificial ripening. The patented GKI blankets reduce the concentration of ethylene during the transport, thereby extending fruit postharvest life. The GK4/P Blanket (M B+P) is used for banana and plantain. Blankets GK4/P (M P+S) The ethylene and other volatiles emitted by non-climacteric produce like pineapple accelerate their senescence, decay and rotting. The patented GKI blankets reduce the ethylene and volatiles of contaminants during distribution, thereby maintain quality and extending fruit postharvest life. The GK4/P Blanket (M P+S) is used for pineapple and berries.

Its products are: “Vacuum Coolers” or vacuum precoolers, refrigeration chambers for cooling and storage, control and automation systems, and services related to refrigeration: chamber sizing, upgrading of existing chambers, design, construction and installation of refrigeration equipment; legal questions.
The vacuum cooler brings the product to the optimum storage temperature in less than half an hour. Cooling speed is very important today, due to the commercial dissemination of fresh cut presentation for fruit and vegetables and increasing demand for fresh produce throughout the year. This implies production of the same vegetable species in different climates according to season and also to displace the location of produce handling facilities. The shelf life of the product becomes an essential aspect for companies engaged in international trade of horticultural products. The faster a low temperature is achieved, longer is the average shelf life of the produce.
The largest vacuum cooler facility in Europe
Vacuum Cooler Vacuum Cooler is the most effective way to cool leafy vegetables such as lettuce Iceberg, Romaine, Batavia, Trocadero, chicory, cabbage, endive, or spinach. It also cools mushrooms, flowers, strawberries, etc. Cooling time is less than 25 minutes; equipment with capacity ranging from one to thirty pallets is available, also with vacuum coolers with capacities between 7-150 m3.
Moelco, as a specialist in vacuum coolers, has build the largest facility of this kind in Europe for Urcisol Group, located in Murcia, Spain. With a turnover capacity of 60 pallets/hour, the facility processes and trades 800.000 lettuce units a day, keeping the highest quality for each one unit.
