Ozone in cold storage
Advantages of Ozone in Cold storage
- Extends shelf-life.
- Decreased spoilage.
- Reduced odours.
- Controlled biofilm.
- Sanitation of surfaces and ethylene removal.
- Control of post harvest diseases on fruits.
- Retarding the production of spores from decaying fruit.
- Reduced cross-contamination from close proximity.
- Reduced/eliminated use of fumigants.
- Eliminates all chemical usage and is chemical-free, without the chemical by-products of chlorination.
- Eliminates the use of hot water and conventional sanitizers.
- Ozone is generated on site, thus eliminating the transporting, storing and handling of otherwise hazardous materials.
- Is very inexpensive to produce once a generator is in use.
In 1997, the FDA granted ozone with the status of “Generally Recognized As Safe” (GRAS) as a sanitizer and disinfectant for foods which means that food processors are free to use ozone as an antimicrobial agent to treat food products.
With ozone, a processor can eliminate hot water, chemicals, and reduce sanitation time. Ultimately, processing time increases and manpower cost decreases.
Ozone has become the preferred choice for CIP (clean In Place) systems, in the food and beverage industry.
You can continuously disinfect product during production, continuously clean and sanitize product contact surfaces during production, and quickly clean and sanitize hard surfaces during production breaks.
TES Ozonators enables you to clean and sanitize your facility much more quickly than with conventional chemical-based sanitation methods.
One of the biggest issues currently facing the food industry is that most high care areas continue to rely on a range of chemicals, including various forms of chlorine, branded forms of ammonium compounds and even bromine or iodine based products, to maintain an acceptable hygiene regime.
While the sanitizing power of these chemicals is not in dispute but side effects are. When chlorine based compounds combine with organic residues the results could potentially be extremely harmful to people. Indeed, research has shown that in certain extreme cases some of these chemicals can develop into carcinogenic compounds.
Technozone Ozonators are 100% organic cleaning and sanitizing systems which replace conventional chemical-based sanitation methods.
With TES Ozonators you don’t need to wait until the end of production to perform sanitation.
Now with TES Ozonators you have quality, increased productivity, substantial cost savings, and improved environmental sustainability.

- A TES Ozonator generates Ozone gas at site, and as required.
- No storage and handling necessary.
- It is directly connected to the ducting system for air circulation.
- It also helps to control/eliminate bacterial build-up in the air filters.
