Local context

Working in Philippi

We service Philippi Horticultural Area, Philippi Industrial and the surrounding blocks of Philippi, Cape Town, with access off the N2 and R300. Mediterranean summers with strong south-easters carry dust and salt onto condenser coils, and winter rain drives condensation risk at dock openings.

Rapid 4-hour pull-down windows after field heat arrival Slow pull-down causes SO₂ pad burn and berry shatter

FAQ

Isocab controlled atmosphere installation in Philippi

How fast can a technician service Isocab equipment at a table grape packhouses site in Philippi?

Philippi sits on the N2 and R300, so our Cape Town dispatch reaches most Philippi Horticultural Area sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency controlled atmosphere installation runs 24/7 because slow pull-down causes so₂ pad burn and berry shatter.

Do you stock OEM components for Isocab systems?

Yes — Isocab panel joints, door sets and hygienic coving. Isocab (Belgium) equipment on R404A/R717 charges is supported with the fast-moving spares held at our Pretoria North workshop and non-stock items brought in on OEM order.

What pressure testing and gas compliance certificates are provided?

Every controlled atmosphere installation job closes with a pressure test record and gas handling Certificate of Conformance issued under SANS 10147 by a SAQCC Gas registered technician, plus the PPECB documentation your auditors expect.

What operating envelope do you commission this equipment to?

Table Grape Packhouses run at −0.5 °C to +1 °C at 90–95% RH, with controlled atmosphere installation performed against 1–3% O₂, 0–5% CO₂ at −0.5 °C to +2 °C. Slow pull-down causes SO₂ pad burn and berry shatter
