Multiply your Yield
Janny MT CA Bins provide the ability to shift sales, depending on the product, by several days, weeks or months from harvest. This ability allows you to harvest or purchase products even if the market is not able to absorb them immediately. Cherries left on the trees, or leeks left in the field that end up crushed after bolting, are examples of non-harvest losses that become avoidable: the products can be quickly picked at optimal maturity, to be then sold according to market needs. Losses due to bad weather or early killing frost can be completely avoided. Both losses in the field or during storage are therefore reduced, which converts into increased volumes sold at the right time for the market.

Janny MT Controlled Atmosphere Bin lid membranes work by allowing controlled respiration, keeping moisture, Oxygen, and CO2 levels within a range defined by individual produce needs. Each US lid comes with 9 membranes, which can be capped or uncapped to control the rate of evaporation and gas exchange. Each bin can be customized to fit the needs of the produce stored within. Specification sheets for each type of produce best suited to Janny MT CA Bin storage are available upon request.
Atmospheric conditions within the bin are monitored using the handheld Tiempo Test unit, allowing for immediate insight into current quality and full control of the storage process. It is recommended to test regularly and adjust caps according to the manufacturer's specifications.
