Five Central Asian countries including Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan are blessed with unique water, soil, light and heat resources, producing high-quality berries such as strawberries, cherries and raspberries with full flesh and natural flavor, which have strong export potential. However, the backward cold chain storage and transportation technology has long hindered industrial development: traditional cold storage pre-cooling has large temperature fluctuations, simple foam box preservation leads to high loss rate, and fresh berries rot quickly; manual sorting is inefficient, berries are seriously squeezed and deformed, greatly reducing commodity value; lack of large-scale freshness-locking equipment results in short shelf life of fresh fruits, making it difficult to sell overseas markets such as Russia and Europe, and the added value of the industry cannot be improved.
Aiming at the core pain points of berry processing in the five Central Asian countries, CBFI Icequan Refrigeration has customized the 2000kg/h Fluidized Bed Quick Freezer, specially designed for small and fragile fruits and vegetables such as strawberries, raspberries and cherries. Relying on advanced fluidized bed quick-freezing technology, it realizes rapid freshness-locking and single-piece forming of berries, solves the problems of difficult preservation, high loss and limited export, helping the local berry industry realize industrial and large-scale upgrading and open up international market sales.
Core Equipment Configuration Adapted to Mass Production Demand of Central Asian Berries
This fluidized bed quick freezer is a classic model of CBFI in the overseas cold chain market, optimized and adjusted in combination with the berry planting scale, processing scenarios and climate characteristics in Central Asia, and the core configuration is precisely tailored to mass production needs: the core quick-freezing capacity stably reaches2000KG/H, which can meet the large-scale production of large berry planting and processing bases; it is suitable for various berries such as cherries, strawberries, raspberries and blueberries with strong versatility; equipped with a 12℃ constant temperature pre-treatment workshop to ensure seamless connection of fresh fruit sorting, cleaning and quick-freezing links; matched with 4 high-efficiency refrigeration units + 120kg/m³ large-capacity cold storage, it can maintain stable low temperature even with frequent door opening and closing, perfectly adapting to the processing and storage environment in Central Asia.
Five Core Advantages Reshaping Berry Quick-Freezing Standards
1. Ultra-Fast Deep Cooling & Freshness Locking Preserving Original Flavor and Nutrition
The equipment adopts -35℃ deep-cooling quick-freezing process, which can quickly reduce the core temperature of berries to below -18℃, pass through the ice crystal formation zone rapidly, minimize the damage to pulp cells, and completely retain the natural color, sweet taste, vitamins, sugar and other nutrients of berries. After thawing, the quick-frozen berries are still juicy and crisp, with almost the same quality as fresh fruits, fully meeting the quality requirements of international high-end fruit and vegetable products.
2. Single Fluidized Freezing Preventing Adhesion and Deformation
Different from traditional flat quick-freezing, fluidized bed technology makes berries in a semi-suspended state through high-speed cold air, with no contact between fruits and uniform cooling, realizing real single-quick-freezing. It fundamentally solves the problems of berry extrusion, adhesion, damage and deformation, maintains the complete and round appearance of fruits, greatly improves the appearance value of goods, and makes Central Asian berries more competitive in the international market.
3. Intelligent, Energy-Saving and Stable Adapted to Long-Term Mass Production
The whole machine is equipped with Bitzer high-efficiency refrigeration units and polyurethane sandwich insulation panels, with high heat exchange efficiency and less cold loss, significantly reducing energy consumption compared with traditional quick-freezing equipment. Equipped with PLC intelligent control panel, it supports remote monitoring, fault warning and whole-line linkage control, without a lot of manual intervention, and is easy to operate; the transmission system adopts low-tension synchronization technology, coordinated with multi-inverter control, and can operate continuously and stably for 24 hours, meeting the mass processing demand of Central Asian berry harvest season.
4. Food-Grade Materials Safe and Compliant
The whole equipment is made of 304 stainless steel, corrosion-resistant and easy to clean, meeting global food processing hygiene standards; the mesh belt is made of non-slip plastic material, meeting American Ashworth standards, with strong bearing capacity, hygienic and odorless, and non-slip baffles are installed on both sides to avoid berry falling off and loss during transportation, protecting food hygiene and safety throughout the process, meeting the strict quality inspection requirements of export food.
5. Full Process Adaptation Building a Complete Cold Chain
CBFI not only provides single-machine equipment, but also creates a one-stop berry preservation plan of "pre-treatment + fluidized bed quick-freezing + low-temperature storage" for Central Asian customers. From rapid pre-cooling after fresh fruit picking, to quick-freezing and freshness locking, to long-term storage in -18℃ cold storage, a closed-loop cold chain is formed, completely solving the problems of temperature fluctuation and preservation interruption, greatly reducing berry loss rate, extending shelf life, and allowing high-quality Central Asian berries to be sold all over the world.
Implementation Effect Witnessed by Customer Reputation
This set of 2000kg/h fluidized bed quick-freezing system has been stably operated in a Kyrgyzstan berry processing factory. CBFI technical team followed up the whole process of scheme design, installation, commissioning and on-site training, and optimized parameters accurately matching local berry characteristics. Customer feedback shows that after the equipment is put into use, the berry loss rate is greatly reduced, the quick-frozen fruits have intact appearance and original flavor, the shelf life is significantly extended, successfully opening up the Russian and European markets, and the added value of products is doubled.
With mature refrigeration technology, customized solutions tailored to overseas markets and perfect after-sales service, CBFI Icequan Refrigeration has become the preferred partner for fruit and vegetable cold chain upgrading in the five Central Asian countries. In the future, CBFI will continue to deeply cultivate the Central Asian market, optimize equipment solutions for local characteristic agricultural products, and use intelligent, efficient and green quick-freezing technology to help more Central Asian agricultural products go global and sell well worldwide.
