Maintaining proper humidity level for the safety of goods and workers

The value of items stored in industrial freezer storages can only be maintained with the help of controlled humidity in the freezer storage. Not maintaining the humidity level can give various problems to the owners and operators of the storage facility.

  • The temperature in the freezer storage is very low, which means that the moisture in the air can condense easily impacting the quality of the goods stored in the storage facilities. 
  • The cold temperature in the storage encourages the formation of ice on the walls and floors which can cause safety hazards in the facility.
  • The packaging can come off due to high humidity. The quality of the products can also be compromised due to the moisture.
  • The operating costs become high because the energy efficiency of the system is compromised.
  • It also encourages bacterial growth causing hygiene risks.

Various humidity challenges in industrial freezer storage

The success of the industrial freezer storage facilities lies in keeping the stored products completely safe from any kind of damage. Its whole commercial success revolves around satisfying the recipient or the owner of the goods by providing the goods in excellent condition. The quality, value, and appearance should be kept safe until they are not delivered in the supply chain.

But keeping the products safe in the storage facility is not an easy task. There are many natural challenges that need to be overcome to keep the products safe for a long period of time. One of the challenges is the uncontrolled humidity in the air. The humidity brings a grave risk to the product and inventory value. Maintaining dry air in the storage facility is tough because of the outer environment. When the moisture-laden air swoops in the facility from outside the moisture instantly condense because of the low temperature of the facility. The surfaces such as ceiling, floor, and walls start to drip with water as well as the stored frozen products. 

This lack of control brings great risk to the business. The formation of condensation dripping from every surface is not good for the structure. The products stored in the storeroom can also be hampered.  The packaging can really come off due to extra moisture. This puts customer satisfaction at risk. In addition, the energy efficiency of the freezer is also compromised which amps up the operating costs. The pooled condensation also encourages bacterial growth which in turn creates hygiene risks in the storage room. Another problem that can be seen is the formation of layers of ice on the walls, ceilings, and floors along with the store fixtures. These icy surfaces are safety hazards as they are slippery and give rise to accidents.

Humidity control for minimizing risks and preventing loss of value is the only way to tackle these problems is to reduce the humid air present in the facility. This can be done with the help of Ambale dehumidifiers. These dehumidifiers are capable of removing large amounts of airborne moistures that may be present in such areas. These dehumidifiers are capable of lowering down the dew point of the remaining air in the freezer storage. They completely eliminate any kind of condensation by controlling the dew point efficiently. You can easily get rid of the effects and problems created from the condensation. What more, these dehumidifiers are highly energy-efficient which means you can relax and not worry about your energy bills too.

Ambale Dehumidifiers are available and supplied in Auckland, Wellington, Tauranga, Hamilton, Christchurch, Northland, Napier, Bay of Plenty, and all around NZ. Please send in your query to info@ambale.co.nz and our technical team will get back to you with a solution.
