Step-by-Step Guide to Preserving Freshness and Quality

To ensure the unparalleled freshness and quality of kiwi, Nosrati Brothers Cold Storage has designed a fully controlled, scientific process. From harvest to market preparation, each stage is carefully executed to keep the final product healthy, fresh, and high-quality.

  1. Precise and Careful Harvesting
    Kiwis are hand-picked at the optimal time with maximum care to preserve their initial quality and long-term storage potential. Physical damage is strictly avoided during this stage.

  2. Smart Sorting & Grading
    Freshly harvested fruit is categorized based on size, quality, and ripeness. Only the best kiwis are selected for cold storage to guarantee the quality of the final product.

  3. Rapid and Uniform Pre-Cooling
    Immediately after harvest, kiwis are quickly brought to near-zero temperatures. This reduces metabolic activity and significantly extends shelf life.

  4. Controlled Cold Storage Environment
    Kiwis are stored at a precise temperature of 0–0.5°C with 90–95% relative humidity. These conditions prevent shriveling, weight loss, and spoilage.

  5. Advanced Atmosphere Control & Ventilation
    Sophisticated ventilation and atmosphere control systems optimize ethylene and carbon dioxide levels, preventing premature ripening of the fruit.

  6. Proper Stacking & Adequate Space
    Kiwi boxes are arranged to allow complete air circulation around each fruit. This ensures uniform temperature distribution and optimal cold storage efficiency.

  7. Continuous Monitoring
    Temperature, humidity, and gas levels are monitored 24/7. Any fluctuations are quickly identified and corrected to maintain ideal conditions.

  8. Preparation for Market Distribution
    After storage, kiwis are gently removed from the cold storage under controlled temperatures for packaging and shipment. This prevents temperature shock and preserves fruit quality.
