The magazine wrote a catchy article about the condensation drying technology for onions, based on an interview with Marcel Bennink, Project Manager at Equans Refrigeration.

Although Equans does not have its roots in the onion sector, the company does have many years of history and experience in refrigeration technology.

In the beginning, the agricultural sector had to get used to this new technology, but now it has proven its added value. Onions that exit our storage rooms are the best advertisement. No, the condensation drying system is not a hospital for them. Poor-quality onions do not become stars. But the system is close to being a nursing home!”
