Fruit and vegetable bins and humidity control lid
The unique humidity control lid functions to seal the bins and provide a humid microclimate to
extend the storage times of fruit and vegetables.
During times of high humidity the lid also functions to prevent condensation from dripping onto
the fruit and vegetable by retaining this moisture in the lid’s specially designed grooves.
Fruit and vegetable bins and humidity slide
Each fruit and vegetable bin has an adjustable humidity slide which enables you to choose a
fruit or vegetable setting depending on your storage needs.
If there is too much water in the bins (due to high humidity), the control can be adjusted
towards the setting with fewer drips (fruit setting,
) and/or the water can be wiped dry
whenrequired.
Remember a small amount of water in the bins is beneficial for fruit and vegetable storage.
When storing vegetables; which are ethylene sensitive produce such as lettuce, spinach, broccoli,
cabbage, carrots. We recommend using the vegetable setting,
.
When storing fruits which are generally high ethylene producers; such as citrus fruits, stone fruits
and some tropical fruits. We recommend using the fruit setting,
.
When storing a combination of fruit and vegetable, we recommend adjusting the humidity slide
to the centre.
Ideally store whole fruits and vegetables without external packaging, if possible, and in separate
bins. Separating fruit and vegetables will prevent ethylene-sensitive produce from ripening too
quickly, and help extend their storage life.
