We’re experts in packing and storing temperature-sensitive products, providing custom-designed, energy-efficient industrial cold storage solutions for leading food producers and distributors in Central Washington and across the Pacific Northwest.

Why Use Controlled Atmosphere Storage for Dairy?

The potential for microorganism growth increases the risk of spoilage in dairy products more than in other foods. By controlling atmospheric conditions, you can prevent degradation from microbes and enzymes and extend the shelf life of many dairy products without additives and preservatives:

  • High carbon monoxide environments halt or reduce mold, yeast, and microbial activity and safeguard the flavor and texture of hard cheeses.
  • High carbon monoxide, low oxygen environments prevent fermentation and souring in high-moisture soft cheeses.
  • Removing oxygen and replacing it with inert nitrogen prevents fat oxidation in liquid milk, cream, butter, and dry milk products.
  • Utilizing carbon dioxide significantly extends the shelf life of cultured dairy products such as cottage cheese and yogurt.

CW Refrigeration can create a dairy controlled atmosphere storage system using the recommended gas mixtures for your dairy products. With a system custom-designed by our experienced team, you can streamline packaging and storage and safeguard product quality.
