AS/RS Automated Cold Storage Solutions Help Elevate Vietnamese Agricultural Products

In the agricultural supply chain, the main objective is to ensure food safety and maintain optimal quality when the products reach the consumers. Local agricultural cooperatives carry out the sorting, selection and packaging of agricultural products supplied by farmers. The next process involves the temporary storage of agricultural products in the most suitable conditions, depending on the type of product, before transporting them to wholesale markets.

In parallel, wholesalers, after purchasing agricultural products from cooperatives, need to set up cold storage systems to maintain freshness or accelerate the ripening process before distributing to retailers. Tin Quang Group provides automated storage solutions, specifically designed for each type of agricultural product, to support distributors in optimizing their workflow and improving operational efficiency.

The journey of agricultural products from farm to consumer

Temperature Requirements for Agricultural Storage

In general, rice, as an agricultural product, has the property of being able to be stored for many years. However, the maintenance of its quality and commercial value depends on the storage methods. Rice quality deterioration occurs rapidly when the temperature exceeds 15°C (59°F) due to increased respiration, so storage below this temperature is crucial. Similarly, tea leaf storage must be carried out in a cool, dark environment, with a temperature of 5 to 10°C, because high humidity and temperature will degrade the quality of the product.

In addition, the cooling inhibition mechanism should also be noted to ensure that leafy vegetables and flowers are cooled at a stable temperature to maintain freshness. Furthermore, the removal of ethylene in storage can slow down the ripening process.

Tin Quang Group’s AS/RS Cold Storage Solution for Vietnam’s agricultural industry

 

Rice and tea leaves are often stored in tiers on the warehouse floor, but this type of storage causes the following problems.

  • Cold air is not distributed to products at the back of the warehouse or on lower floors, and inconsistent quality will not be maintained.
  • FIFO management is difficult, leading to dead inventory.
  • Risk of product falling during loading and unloading.
  • Packaging damage caused by forklift.
  • Large gaps for storage and retrieval make air conditioning less efficient.

Tin Quang group’s automated warehouse stores and retrieves goods, eliminating the need for forklifts to enter the warehouse.

  • Cold air is distributed evenly to maintain consistent quality.
  • FIFO can be reliably implemented, avoiding lost sales opportunities due to dead inventory.
  • Safe operation as no pallet tampering is required.
  • Reduces the risk of product damage due to pallet tampering.
  • Keep warehouse doors open to a minimum to improve air conditioning efficiency.

Differential Pressure Cooling System

Differential pressure fans are installed behind the AS/RS racks to evenly cool fruits, vegetables and flowers stored on the racks.

  • Large volume cooling can be completed in a short time.
  • Because pallets are stored on racks spaced far apart, cool air is distributed evenly compared to floor storage.
  • Since storage and retrieval are done by conveyor, the opening size is only 1.8 m wide x 2 m high, which improves air conditioning efficiency.

TQG AS/RS Warehouse - Dry Agricultural Products Storage

Root vegetables, which need to be kept longer than leafy vegetables, must be dried thoroughly to prevent rotting.

By integrating a differential pressure fan behind the AS/RS rack, large volumes of product can be dried in a short time.

  • A large volume of product can be dried in a short time.
  • Because the air inside the warehouse is circulated and not affected by the outside air, agricultural products are dried stably.
