Modified and Controlled Atmosphere Systems
Since 1993 , Emproco Ltd , established on 1975 , has been designing and manufacturing a wide range of Modified and Controlled Atmosphere Systems for application such as food packaging , storage of fruit , vegetables , grain and flowers and CO2 enrichment for greenhouses . Products were developed in conjunction with the Volcani Institute of Agricultural Research Center in Israel .
Our range of instrumentation includes on-line food packaging monitors for quality control of modified atmosphere packaging of products such as coffee , cheese , processed meats , herbs , flour etc . Nitrogen and / or CO2 are used to extend the shelf life of these packaged products . We have developed instruments that measure very small volumes of residual Oxygen and CO2 to ensure the integrity of the packaging .
For storage of fruit , vegetables , grains , etc ., we have designed multiple programmable systems that control the storage atmosphere according to pre-set parameters of Oxygen and CO2 . These systems use our propriety software to optimize quantity of gases required to reach the programmed concentrations in minimal time and to maintain these concentrations within close tolerances .
CO2 enrichment of greenhouses for flowers and some types of fruit and vegetables provides improved the quality and quantity of produce . Our systems use propriety software to optimize and maintain the CO2 levels over the complete growing cycle in multiple greenhouses .
We can also design and manufacture systems per customer requirements and parameters . All our instrumentation are designed for high reliability with minimum maintenance , which in most cases , can be carried out by the end-user .
