INSTALATION

OZEANO filters must be placed in the interior of the refrigerated spaces that are going to be treated. It is best to place them in the area with the highest airflow inside the container, like the suction grille of the cooling equipment. They can also be placed in ship holds, in the air return of the cooling equipment. The filters are adjustable and are attached to the ventilation grille with the plastic strips that are included inside the filter's box.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
The OZEANO granulate does not come into direct contact with the fruit and therefore it is not considered as an additive, because it doesn't leave residues on the fruit. The OZEANO granulate is disposable once it has been used and it is innocuous for workers. It is perfectly compatible with an ecological/organic production.
