New PET Technology Sets a New Standard in Sprout Suppression, Fry Colour Preservation, and Cost Efficiency
In the ever-evolving landscape of agricultural technology, Restrain is once again pushing the boundaries with the launch of its groundbreaking Precision Ethylene Treatment (PET) technology. This innovative advancement marks a significant step forward in the science of potato storage, offering an unprecedented level of precision in sprout suppression, quality maintenance, and overall efficiency.
For over 20 years, Restrain has been at the forefront of Ethylene-based storage solutions, ensuring potatoes remain sprout-free and market-ready. The company’s expertise in this field has made it the go-to solution for potato storage, especially following the European Union’s 2020 ban on CIPC, a previously common sprout suppressant. Now, with the introduction of PET technology, Restrain is setting a new benchmark in the industry.
The Precision Ethylene Treatment (PET) Technology
Restrain’s PET technology is a sophisticated approach to managing Ethylene levels in potato storage facilities. This system integrates three core components that work in unison to ensure optimal storage conditions:
- Advanced Sensor Technology: The newly designed Ethylene sensor offers unmatched accuracy and responsiveness. It minimizes interference from other gases, ensuring precise, continuous Ethylene monitoring. Additionally, it tracks carbon dioxide, temperature, and humidity, providing a comprehensive overview of storage conditions.
- Ultra-Low Dosing Pulse System: This innovative system delivers controlled Ethylene at extremely low concentrations, measured in parts per billion. It prepares the potatoes for increased Ethylene levels, effectively suppressing sprouting while minimizing respiration, which is crucial for maintaining fry colour and reducing weight loss.
- State-of-the-Art Control Management: Restrain’s advanced control system employs sophisticated algorithms to maintain precise Ethylene levels in commercial storage environments. The gradual and controlled increase of Ethylene levels ensures the best possible storage outcomes, safeguarding potato quality from harvest to market.
Key Benefits of PET Technology
The Precision Ethylene Treatment technology brings several advantages to the potato industry:
- Accurate Ethylene Control: With cutting-edge software and sensor innovations, PET technology ensures precise control of Ethylene levels, preventing overexposure and maintaining top-quality potato storage.
- Fry Colour Preservation: By managing Ethylene levels with precision, the PET system helps maintain the excellent fry colour that is essential for processors and suppliers.
- Fuel Efficiency: The system reduces fuel consumption, lowering operational costs and minimizing environmental impact, a significant advantage for sustainable farming practices.
- Gentle Potato Treatment: PET technology preserves the quality of potatoes through gentle, controlled treatment, reducing weight loss and ensuring they reach the market in optimal condition.
- Industry-Leading Innovation: As a patent-pending technology, PET sets the new industry standard for sprout suppression and potato preservation, offering a reliable, innovative solution for farmers and storage facilities.
Conclusion
Restrain’s Precision Ethylene Treatment technology is a game-changer for the potato storage industry. By leveraging decades of expertise and the latest advancements in sensor and control technology, Restrain continues to lead the way in providing effective, efficient, and sustainable solutions for potato preservation. Farmers, storage managers, and food industry professionals now have access to a tool that not only improves the quality of stored potatoes but also reduces costs and environmental impact.
