VDH Products believes that collaboration and knowledge sharing leads to better performance and goals. So as an extra service to their customers, they offer an internal course for the use of the VDH ripening system.
In collaboration with company Popma Fruit Expertise a training is offered in the ripening of bananas, mangoes and avocados. To be successful in this market it is necessary to know the whole process. Popma Fruit Expertise has the knowledge to advise on this.
Overview
The ripening of bananas and tropical fruit cannot be learned in theory. This happens in practice with the result that errors are copied by the successors. The experience is that users of various ripening systems often do not know the many possibilities of the ripening software like Proba. This can be at the expense of the quality of the ripened fruit, but also of the good reputation of VDH Products BV.
In order to deliver a good reliable product, a ripening room must meet certain requirements. A ripening room which is not build according specifications can negatively affect the performance of the Proba system. Also a training can be organized in which the newly built ripening rooms are handled in the right way. This means that protocols and procedures must be written for the ripening process. This in close cooperation with the customer to ensure that the newly built ripening rooms/plant functions as well as possible.
