1. Key Industrial Refrigeration Needs in An Giang
- Pangasius and basa fillet exports (Chau Doc, Thoai Son): After filleting and glazing, the product must be ultra-fast frozen via IQF conveyor belt or blast freezer. -35°C to -40°C For 45-60 minutes, allow the core temperature to reach -18°C. Then, transfer to a freezer storage facility. -22°C to -25°C, humidity 85% – 90% to prevent freezer burn.
- Certified rice seeds & agricultural seed products (Tan Chau, Tri Ton): Rice seeds in storage need to be kept in a cool place to maintain their quality. +15°C to +18°C, humidity is strictly controlled 55% – 60% To inhibit pest infestation, maintain the dormancy of seed embryos, and ensure a germination rate of over 90% after 12-18 months of storage.
