Many refrigeration systems require reliable processes that are more efficient, compact, environmentally friendly, easy to install, and easy to maintain. The cooling requirements vary over a wide range during the day, night, and year due to ambient conditions, product storage variation, occupancy and use, lighting, etc. Three different market trends are converging to create new opportunities for efficient, sustainable solutions.
Read MoreThe modern-day supply chain is a complex system with non-linear, multi-tier relationships and real-time digital processes essential for remaining competitive and profitable in the global marketplace. New distribution models, higher number of SKUs, shorter product lifecycles, increasing levels of customer service and volatility in demand planning have increased the complexity of supply chains.

India, with 2.4% of the world’s surface area, accounts for 17.5% of its population, which means one out of every six people on this planet lives in India. With a population growth rate of 1.58%, India is predicted to have more than 1.53 billion people by the end of 2030.

It covers the journey of food and pharma products from the point of production to the point of consumption. The article deals with the gamut of cold chain current trends in technology, various refrigeration systems options, renewable energy application, and sustainable features.
Read MoreIn the agriculture and food processing sector, presence of a robust cooling infrastructure has the potential to save lives and livelihoods, limit food waste levels and bridge the nutrition gap in countries like India. India was successful in setting up one aspect in the cold chain in terms of long-term temperature-controlled storage of specific commodities like potatoes, spices, pulses, apples.
Read MoreMaintaining a plant well is more about attitude than the actual work involved. Increased productivity coupled with energy conservation is the prime objective for capital equipment. If this is not taken care of, performance is almost certain to suffer at some point of time due to plant failure or breakdown or inefficient operation. It is not advantageous for anyone if a plant becomes a repair liability before its due time or otherwise fails to operate in other than a satisfactory manner under its design conditions.
Read MoreA cold chain in the HVAC industry is a temperature-controlled supply chain mainly related with refrigerated production, storage and distribution facilities supported by equipment that can constantly maintain the required low-temperature range of perishable products during transportation time frame. However, it is far more complex than it sounds. For example, some pharmaceuticals require constant maintenance of an ultra-low temperature range from the time they are manufactured until they are used by the end-user customers. The requirement is so exact that if the temperature deviates slightly from this range, even for a short time, it could lose its potency and become unfit for use.
