Product Information
Cold Easy
A low-power and cost-effective cold storage solution that converts any room into a cold room. It increases shelf-life of fruits and vegetables by 2-4 times, reduces weight loss by up to 90% and enables multiple commodity storage in the same chamber. ColdEasy costs only Rs 70,800 and consumes only 4-5 units of power per day to cool up to 2,000 kg of fruits and vegetables.
Block Pattern: Regular
Installation of solar refrigerators on trucks has helped us to maintain the freshness of fruits like litchis, mushroom, apple, peach, plum, cherry, and oranges while transportation. This empowers us to negotiate better prices.
Farmlink Agro Products
ColdEasy extends shelf life of our fruits. It helps us do bulk purchase whenever prices go down. We now aggregate for 3-4 days and send full truck loads. Earlier, we used to send part loads daily. Our reject rates have also gone down from 7-8% to 2-3%.

Impact
Increases shelf-life of fruits and vegetables by 2-4 times and reduces weight loss by up to 90% by maintaining a low-temperature and high-humidity environment
Suitable for completely solar-powered as well as hybrid installations since it has 85% lower energy consumption than refrigerated cold storage. Uses only 2-3 solar panels for most installations.
Enables storing multiple commodities in the same chamber since there is built-in ventilation
Eliminates any chance of chilling injury to the crop, or condensation droplets when the crop exits the cold room since it cools to just above dew-point temperature
Helps reduce food waste, increase farmer incomes, increase food security, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions
