Airtight ripening rooms for fruits, vegetables, and agricultural products

Whether you’re a farmer, distributor or retailer, you know that having precise control of the temperature, humidity, ethylene gas, and airflow can make a significant difference on the quality of your final product. The right combination produces attractive and delicious products with an optimal shelf life. The wrong combination can lead to unevenly ripe products with less-than-optimal flavors that may pass the peak of freshness before they reach consumers.

At Polar King, our walk in ripening rooms are designed to create the ideal conditions for controlled fruit ripening, vegetable curing, and post-harvest storage. These airtight units allow for precise ethylene gas management with the consistent airflow and humidity control you need to bring products to the ideal stage of ripening. Whether you need an avocado or banana ripening room, a citrus degreening chamber, or a curing space for tobacco or onions, we can provide the best solution for your specific needs.

Each Polar King ripening room is:

  • Energy efficient
  • 100% seamless fiberglass
  • Antimicrobial coated
  • NSF approved
  • Engineered for outdoor use

Precise humidity control

Polar King airtight ripening rooms allow for even humidity control throughout the unit to ensure that all of your agricultural products are kept in the same ideal conditions.

100% seamless fiberglass

Because of the humidity required for ripening and curing, metal or panel-built ripening rooms can develop mold or corrosion. Polar King units are constructed of 100% seamless fiberglass, eliminating the cracks and crevices where moisture and bacteria can accumulate.
