A cross-border trade enterprise engaged in the processing of imported seafood from Southeast Asia, whose products are mainly exported to European and North American markets. Due to the long cross-border transportation time, the requirements for the freshness and shelf life of frozen products are extremely high. The previously used quick-freezing equipment could not meet international standards, resulting in an export return rate as high as 12%. To solve this problem, the enterprise purchased an impingement tunnel quick-freezer from Yongxing Factory.
Yongxing’s impingement tunnel quick-freezer adopts high-speed air impact technology, with an air speed of 15m/s, which can lower the central temperature of seafood to -40℃ within 8 minutes, far lower than the -18℃ standard required for international transportation, effectively killing some microorganisms and extending the product shelf life to 18 months. The equipment is equipped with a control system certified by EU CE, which can record data such as temperature and time during the quick-freezing process in real time, facilitating product traceability. After being put into use, the enterprise’s export return rate dropped to 1.5%, and the products passed the EU BRC food safety certification, successfully entering the European high-end seafood market, with annual export volume increasing by 50%.
