ULTIMO ripening rooms

Maximum efficiency for even ripening

✓ Bulk ripening at minimal cost

✓ Energy-saving REVERSO fans

✓ Single, double or triple-tier format

✓ ‘Free-floor’ racking system

Interko’s ULTIMO ripening rooms efficiently and evenly ripen large volumes of bananas or other fruits by generating an equal flow of air across either a single or double row of pallets.
Effective side curtains mean air reaches individual pallets with minimum energy loss, and air filters seamlessly throughout each and every box of fruit.
To reduce dehydration and product loss, an air cooler runs along the length of the room, which maximises the cooling area and maintains a constant temperature.
The air cooler is standard equipped with Interko’s reversible REVERSO fans, which consume less than 100 watts per pallet at full air flow, presenting considerable cost savings.
REVERSO fans can be individually switched on or off over a network protocol.
ULTIMO rooms can be operated in a single, double and triple-tier format with heavy-duty steel racking.
Double-tier rooms come fitted as standard with Interko’s “free-floor” pallet racking system, allowing free movement at the lowest level.
ULTIMO rooms accommodate standard ISO pallets (1.2m x 1m), Euro pallets (0.8m x 1.2m) and pallets commonly used in the Philippines (1.07m x 1.05m).
Our bespoke service can solve any other requirements.
