Author(s) : IIF-IIR
Type of monograph: Guide/Handbook
Summary
This is the fifth edition of “Recommendations for chilled storage of perishable produce” published by the International Institute of Refrigeration (IIR); the first four editions being published in 1959, 1967, 1979 and 2000. The book was therefore due an update to account for new technologies and initiatives that have occurred over the past 25 years and the exponential increase in the global trade of fresh produce and agricultural products which are dependent on a seamless cold chain from farm to point of sale. In particular, there have been developments in ready-to-eat food, packaging and some processing/storage technologies which have been incorporated into the new book. New chapters have been added on egg storage and brewing/juice processing/storage methods.
The 5th edition of the IIR Guide on “Recommendations for Chilled Storage of Perishable Produce”, offers practical, user-oriented guidance on the cooling and storage of perishable foods for professionals working in chilled food management.
