RAFT is an air flow technology for refrigerated shipping containers that enhances temperature management and outturn quality of fresh produce, increasing profitability. Air is “lazy” and will take the path of least resistance, as a result most of the chilled air inside a container will move around the pallets rather than through them, which has a detrimental effect on freshness and quality. RAFT changes the direction of airflow from vertical to horizontal, which forces the chilled air through the packaged produce and allows for more uniform produce temperatures. Product quality is improved and waste is reduced.
