Onion Cold Store About
Fresh Onion Storage
Onions should not be stored unless adequately cured(dried) either in the field or by artificial means. It is necessary to dry the neck tissues and outer scales until they rustle when handled, otherwise, the bulbs will rot in storage. They can be artificially cured by blowing heated air at 110-115F (43-46C) through mesh bags for 8-12 hours or longer.
Onions are held in 60 lb. sacks, slatted crates, and pallet boxes holding about tons of loose onions, in bins, or in large bulk storage. When in sacks, these should be loaded cross-wise or "air-stacked" 5-6 high. The stacks should be set on floor racks. Individual stacks should be separated a few inches to allow free air circulation. Sufficient Airflow of product is adequate. When in crates or pallet boxes, they can be stored one on top of the other to make full use of the storage space. Onions should be held at 32F (0C) for maximum quality and shelf life. Storage at ambient temperature may be acceptable for short periods (1-1.5 months) depending on the variety.

FAQ's of Onion Cold Store:
Q: How does the Onion Cold Store keep onions fresh for an extended period?
A: The store maintains consistent and low temperatures using an 80mm thick insulated chamber and an air-cooled refrigeration system. This environment slows down spoilage and keeps onions firm and fresh for a longer duration.Q: What is the purpose of using R-22/CFC free refrigerant in this cold store?
A: R-22/CFC free refrigerant is environmentally conscious and safe, providing efficient cooling while avoiding harmful emissions. This helps maintain a stable temperature inside without impacting the environment negatively.Q: When should onions be stored in the cold store for best results?
A: It is recommended to store onions immediately after post-harvest drying to maximize their shelf life. Early storage in the cold store prevents sprouting and keeps them in optimal condition.Q: Where is the Onion Cold Store typically installed or used?
A: This cold store is ideal for farms, wholesale markets, or warehouse facilities in India where large-scale onion storage and preservation are required, supporting both domestic use and export operations.Q: What is the benefit of the manual swing door in the onion cold store?
A: The manual swing door provides reliable sealing and easy access, helping to maintain temperature stability inside the store and ensuring convenient movement of produce in and out.Q: How does the air defrost system contribute to maintenance?
A: The air defrost system prevents frost accumulation on refrigeration components, reducing downtime and manual cleaning efforts. This enhances the efficiency and longevity of the cooling equipment.
