Benefits

  • Prevents the proliferation of fungi and insects.
  • Protects foodstuffs from pests, preventing damage and preserving their nutritional properties.
  • It preserves the economic value of the processed goods
  • It represents the most cost-effective solution currently available on the market for pest prevention and the storage of foodstuff.
  • It is also particularly suitable for small farms, which can thus manage treatments independently, without depending on external services.
  • It guarantees safety and efficacy, with visible results in just a few days.
  • The container can be stacked on top of each other to save storage space
  • The sheaths are reusable, allowing a significant reduction in treatment costs per ton.
  • The initial investment to purchase the necessary equipment is affordable.
  • There is no need to open the container to measure CO₂ concentration, the sensor is placed outside the container and monitors the right concentration level

TECHNICAL FEATEURES

OCTAVIA™ is made of high-strength polypropylene, fully hermetically sealed and equipped with a sheath certified for food contact, which can guarantee the sealing of technical gases such as CO₂.

Through connection with MB series sensors, the system enables:

  • constantly monitor the quality of the internal atmosphere;
  • prevent any opening during treatment;
  • obtain real-time data on the level of CO₂ concentration;
  • capacity of up to 500 kg for the size of 70 cm in height, 110X110 cm base.

At the end of treatment, the container can be easily emptied and reused.

OCTAVIA™ could preserve and protect a wide range of foods:

PREVENTION AND STORAGE WITH MODIFIED ATMOSPHERE
With OCTAVIA™ a modified atmosphere (MAP) can be created inside that prevents the proliferation of fungi, insects and parasites, maintains the organoleptic and nutritional qualities of food and, above all, protects the economic and commercial value of the stored goods. Its ideal use is for foods contained in bags weighing up to 25 kg, but there is nothing to prevent its use with loose foodstuffs as well.
