Pallet loads are cooled in a few hours

Nijssen demonstrates Filacell during Fruit Logistica

During Fruit Logistica in Berlin, Nijssen will be demonstrating their innovative Filacell® pre-cool system. This will give an insight into their wet flow cooling system technology. Developed by Nijssen, the Filacell® system is recognised as the safest and fastest return cooling system in the world. It cools and humidifies the air at the same time using cold water. The exhaust air is never lower than 0°C and freezing of the products is prevented. Since it never requires defrosting it runs at a constant temperature.

Moisture loss halved, fresh for longer
Due to the moisture saturated cool air (98%-99% RV) blown along the warm fruit, heat is extracted without moisture loss. Condensation does not occur on the product and loss of quality and weight loss is kept to a minimum. The effects of moisture loss, compared to other forms of cooling is halved. The constant temperature and high humidity Filacell® also extends the shelf life of products. The Filacell® cooling system sees products such as vegetables, fruit and cut flowers kept fresher for two to three times longer than conventional cooling systems. 



Pallet loads cooled in a few hours
Through its internal ice bank the system contains a large cold buffer and re-cooling can take place much quicker. With the aid of a through flow, pallet loads can be cooled to the desired temperature in a matter of hours because cold air is forced through the packaging, which is of great importance to products with a short shelf life. The faster cooling takes place with the Filacell® system, the less moisture is lost then the longer the shelf life.



Various fruit & vegetable companies at home and abroad are already making use and are fully satisfied with the Filacell® system. The system is also suitable for use within climate controlled rooms and for those with a high humidity regulation Filacell® is ideal.

Nijssen can be found in the Holland Fresh Group Pavilion - hall 3.2, stand D-10.
