Ensuring Food Safety: nexAir’s Dry Ice Solutions for Perishable Goods Shipping

Temperature tells the story of food safety. Between harvest and table, every degree of temperature change affects food quality, with each hour at improper temperatures potentially reducing shelf life by days. The constant -109.3°F (-78.5°C) provided by dry ice creates a protective shield against spoilage, maintaining food safety through even the most challenging shipping conditions. nexAir’s commitment to quality and reliability ensures food distributors have access to the dry ice they need to maintain this crucial cold chain.

Temperature Control and Food Preservation

Understanding how temperature affects food safety starts with the relationship between bacterial growth and thermal conditions. Every degree above freezing accelerates microbial activity, with the danger zone between 40°F and 140°F (4°C to 60°C) presenting the highest risk for bacterial proliferation. Unlike regular ice that melts into a liquid, dry ice transforms directly from solid to gas – a process called sublimation. This reliable temperature control helps preserve perishable foods throughout their journey.
