A fresh first from Kenya to Brunei


Southeast Asian shipping company Pacific International Lines (PIL) has successfully transported its first shipments of avocados from Kenya to Brunei using Carrier Transicold’s innovative "Everfresh" controlled atmosphere system.

 

Part of Carrier Global Corporation, a global provider of intelligent climate and energy solutions, Carrier Transicold conceived a system which reduces respiration and slows natural ripening of commodities by optimising oxygen and carbon dioxide balance.

 

According to the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO), Kenya is currently the world’s sixth largest avocado producer. Since October 2022, PIL has accomplished a number of firsts with this technology – its first shipments of avocados from Peru to Hong Kong, as well as from Australia to Singapore. (lh)
