Cold Storages for Agricultural Products

Efficient storage systems

Our innovative and sustainable agricultural storage systems are fully mechanical. Our systems provide precise control over the ideal drying and storage conditions. This ensures the best for your product all year round.

Control the drying and storage process

Are you still dependent on air from outside to dry and cool your crops? Because of climate changes and a ban on the chemical sprout inhibitor chlorpropham, you can no longer store your products through the winter without sacrificing quality. For these reasons we have developed a range of mechanically cooled storage techniques.

Whichever storage method you choose, our extensive product knowledge enables us to automatically adjust the storage conditions to match your product requirements. This provides stable storage conditions and provides you full control over the drying and storage process. The result is impressive. You become more marketable, provides high-quality products, achieves maximum energy efficiency and, as a result, obtains much higher yield.

The right cold storage for every agricultural product

We offer short, medium and long term storage solutions to suit every budget. Whichever solution you choose, we will ensure that the solution meets your requirements, your product-specific characteristics, energy capacity requirements and product quality preservation. We have a proven track record of success with customers at home and abroad.

Storage with natural refrigerants

Since 2022, no new cooling installations may be built with commonly used synthetic refrigerants. We offer various suitable and safe applications of a more sustainable alternative utilising natural refrigerants. With the switch to natural refrigerants, you not only secure your own production process, but you can also take advantage of interesting tax benefits.

Central control

You can control your entire system from a single panel. Equans has developed this central control with in-house PLC technology. The panel provides a schematic view of all rooms and installations. It gives an overview of the operating status of all components, providing temperatures, whether the installation is cooling, heating, drying or humidifying, and what the energy consumption is.

The intelligent controller regulates the temperature, relative humidity and CO₂ levels in the rooms by controlling fans, cooling, heating, air intake or exhaust, lighting and shutters. It allows you to change the settings at any time and to the nearest decimal. Need to change products in your warehouse or on your production line? At the touch of a button you can switch to the appropriate settings for that product, locally or remotely via a smartphone, tablet or PC.

About storage systems

Methodology

How we operate

Discussing your requirements
During the introduction we will discuss you requirements. What do you need to cool and/or heat? What are the specific requirements for your product of production process?
Concept designs
We are in regular contact and think along with you. The result is a conceptual design and cost estimate of the installation. We take into account capacity, energy consumption, maintenance and safety.
Discuss the concept
Have you seen the concept? Then we would like to discuss the proposal with you. Does the layout meet your expectations? Is the capacity of the equipment sufficient? Are the any adjustments needed?
Drawing up a quotation
Once we know what modifications are required, we start working on the final design and the engineering required. We will visit you to explain the final proposal and provide you with the quotation in person.
Carrying out the project
Are you in agreement with the quotation? Then, we will plan and execute the project with the project managers, planners, technicians, mechanics and anyone else involved. Of course, we will communicate all our plans and who is responsible for what.
Maintenance of the installation
After the project is complete, we can assist you in keeping your equipment in optimal condition. Our comprehensive maintenance service ensures the quality and safety of your production process.
