TECTROLŠ Modified Atmospheres (MA) and Controlled Atmospheres (CA) are provided at many sea ports around the world. The TECTROLŠ service can offer a viable alternative to expensive air freight and provide marketers the opportunity to extend their seasonal products and ensure a consistently high quality on arrival through distribution and retail.

With both the TECTROLŠ MA and CA systems, refrigerated ocean containers are sealed and serviced with prescribed atmosphere levels that are the most beneficial to the commodity. The two systems vary in the degree of atmosphere adjustment and control that they provide. The TECTROLŠ CA system features an electronic controller that regularly checks the atmosphere level and makes adjustments as needed. There are over 40,000 refrigerated containers with the TECTROLŠ CA system installed. The TECTROLŠ MA system is based on the respiration rate of the cargo and is used for short transits.

TransFRESH has always remained at the forefront of product and hardware research. The company holds numerous patents related to atmosphere and post harvest handling systems and continually studies new and enhanced applications for TECTROLŠ Atmosphere Systems.
