The right humidity level in your food production – hygiene, energy savings, and stable operation

We help you maintain a stable climate, tailored to the specific needs of your facility.

Here we present the evidence
Food production

We recognize the challenges in your facility

Food production places high demands on climate control. We have worked with enough facilities to know which challenges recur, regardless of where in Europe they are located.

  • The production zone remains wet for hours after cleaning, delaying restart.
  • Condensation accumulates on ceilings, pipes, and technical installations near production lines.
  • Moisture in packaging zones creates unstable conditions for sensitive materials.
  • The cooling system consumes more energy than it should, without an obvious reason.
  • Hygiene audits flag mold and bacterial risks that are difficult to keep at bay with ventilation alone.

What NEXT does in a food processing environment

Drier facilities, fewer hygiene risks

Condensation on ceilings, pipes, and cooling surfaces creates hygiene risks that are flagged during audits. NEXT maintains stable humidity before condensation can form, resulting in drier surfaces, fewer audit remarks, and a more predictable production environment.

Lower the hidden energy cost

Cooling systems are built to cool, not to manage moisture. When humidity is high, the refrigeration plant works harder and energy consumption rises. With NEXT, moisture is removed directly from the air, which we have seen yields a 30–70% reduction in energy usage.

Shorter downtime, faster restart

High-pressure washing creates rapid moisture spikes that can keep a production zone wet for hours. NEXT features TurboMode, which reacts immediately when humidity rises and actively pulls down the relative humidity. The result is reduced waiting time between cleaning and restart.

How NEXT works

There is energy to be saved – how much depends on your facility

An example: A refrigeration plant for meat storage reduced relative humidity to below 55% RH and eliminated the risk of mold growth.
A halloumi cheese production facility was ready to resume production within 1–3 hours after cleaning.

Condensation control in meat processing

Needed to eliminate dripping condensation from the ceiling onto meat products in their cold processing rooms, which delayed production start-up every morning and created quality control issues.

Improving the work environment at Norrmejerier

To manage high humidity from cooking in open vat vessels during grilled cheese production, Norrmejerier installed a NEXT in April 2024. The solution improved air quality, reduced energy costs, and created a healthier and more efficient working environment.
