Key Steps & Features**:
- **Pre-treatment**: Produce is washed, sorted, peeled, or cut (as needed) and often blanched to deactivate enzymes that cause spoilage.
- **Flash Freezing**: Uses technologies like **Individual Quick Freezing (IQF)** to freeze items individually, preventing clumping and preserving cellular structure.
- **Temperature Control**: Maintains a consistent freezing environment (typically -18°C or lower) to prevent ice crystal damage.
- **Packaging**: Frozen produce is sealed in moisture-resistant, airtight packaging to avoid freezer burn and contamination.
**Applications**: Ideal for berries, leafy greens, diced vegetables, tropical fruits, and ready-to-eat frozen meal ingredients.
