Reduce Food loss
Reduce Cost. Reduce Risks.
END STARVATION
The harsh reality. 30% of all food is lost or wasted
Enough to feed 3 billion people each year.
About 30% of the total food produced is either lost in transport (About 2/3), not consumed by the end user or discarded by supermarkets and F&B establishments on reception based on appearance (About 1/3).
Reducing this by half would end up starvation, this is Nevegy’s goal.
Where food loss and food waste happens.
Nevegy Solutions have been specifically designed to be applied to the complete food supply chain.
Easy to retrofit in any refrigerated storage unit and with special units designed to be retrofitted in reefers (refrigerated containers), Nevegy solutions will protect the food from bacteria impact from origin to destination, extending its life and greatly reducing imapact to its appearance.
Nevegy solutions not only protect the food, but also help you significantly reduce the possibility of end user food poisoning by ensuring bacteria is eliminated throughout the complete supply chain, reducing risks to your brand image and negative impacts to your company.
Nevegy's impact in the complete supply chain.
Manufacturing/Production
Production:
Nevegy can maintain freshness of vegetables, grain, fish, meat, fruits, etc. from the farm, throughout their packaging and storage.
Helping keep the freshness and appearance of the food eliminating bacteria and weight loss in the complete process, ensuring food leaves the production and packaging facilities completely clean, with no deterioration and no bacteria or mold growth, since food deterioration has not been initiated, food life is significantly extended and risk of loss is greatly reduced.
Distribution
Distribution/Transportation:
Food, in many cases spends 20-30 days during long international transport, 15% of the food loss occurs in this stage
Nevegy technology can protect the food from bacteria and mold build up in hot and humid environments, drastically reducing the food loss and improving the appearance of the food when it reaches its destination
Last Mile
Storage/Consumption:
Approximately 30% of food received at destination is discarded by supermarkets and restaurants based on appearance.
Nevegy can help keep food fresh both in chilled and room temperature environments, improving its appearance, freshness and quality, helping prevent water loss and lengthening its shelf life.
Prevent food loss during transport
Effectively eliminate virus, bacteria and chemical compounds from refrigerated containers.
And ensure your food reaches destination in perfect conditions.
According to WHO, 30% of food produced is lost or wasted, about half of that is due to food deterioration from origin to destination.
Food (fruits, vegetables, grains and other perishable items) spend usually over a month in transport in refrigerated containers on sea, humidity and other factors allow bacteria to grow and start deteriorating food.
Nevegy technology can be installed in refrigerated containers and refrigerated storage spaces to ensure food is not deteriorated through the effect of bacteria, maintaining its freshness, extending its life and maintaining its aspect to avoid rejections at destination.

How Nevegy works inside reefers
And helps protect both reefer and food.
Nevegy Reefer Units are installed on the return vent of the reefer’s cooling unit, as air circulates inside a reefer, when it returns into the cooling unit, it is treated and loaded with hydrogen peroxide molecules, these molecules are pushed again into the reefer by the cooling unit and as they move inside the reefer, they eliminate all pathogens both in the air and in surfaces, preventing bacteria from impacting the food, the low concentration of molecules generated is enough to eliminate over 99.9% of bacteria but is 100% innocuous to food and materials, making sure all merchandise is completely safe and free of negative impact from bacteria.
Nevegy reefer units not only protect the food, the whole cooling unit of the reefer is constantly being treated against bacteria buildup, preventing both bacteria and mold formation in cooling coils and ducting which lengthens the life of the reefers and greatly reduces maintenance costs and operations.
The need for Monitoring
Complete tracking of food cold chain.
Temperature and humidity control are key, Nevegy Reefer systems optionally can include sensors that store up to 60 days of temperature and humidity data so you can have complete confidence that your goods have been properly maintained from origin to destination. Information can be seen in real time (If network capabilities are available) or can be easily downloaded at destination and visualized in rich simple dashboards.
No more wondering about what happened, complete detailed information, analytics and real-time alerts.
Nevegy monitoring and automation solutions for storage and production facilities.
Nevegy solutions are specifically designed for their integration in any environments and eliminate chemicals (formaldehyde, benzene, etc.) and pathogens (virus, bacteria, dust mites, mold, etc.) from air and surfaces throughout the whole vessel by deploying pathogen elimination molecules to all areas, eliminating pathogens on the spot, at the source, being the only technology that can effectively keep clean all areas inside a processing plant.
The intelligent control system comprehensively controls the operation of various devices and issues alarms for environmental changes, allowing users to flexibly respond. Information can be shown in screen displays clearly showing air quality information.
The Nevegy air disinfection equipment is easy to install and can be installed independently in the air duct for separate room use or connected to the fresh air system or HVAC system to achieve large-scale coverage of any area. Not damaging the existing decoration and not causing secondary pollution.
How Nevegy Pathogen Elimination System Works
Simple, quick and inexpensive and effective. Nevegy pathogen elimination system works constantly to ensure air and surfaces in all areas of a container are constantly being sanitized.
Air Flow
As air flows through a Nevegy device, which is placed at the entrance of the return duct to the reefer cooling system, water molecules pass through the device and attach momentarily to the walls of the catalyst which consists of a patented set of materials design to attract water molecules and energy from a light source.
Conversion
During that small period of time, some of those water molecules are oxidized and converted to charged hydrogen peroxide at a very small concentration, 100% safe for people, food, flowers, and materials but highly effective against chemicals and pathogens.
Attack
These molecules are pushed out of the device by the air flow, go through the cooling unit, cleaning the cooling coils and avoiding any bacteria or mold buildup in them and then pushed back inside the container, where they are magnetically attracted to chemicals, virus and bacteria and immediately start attacking those pollutants and pathogens both in air and surfaces.
Elimination
After the pathogens are eventually inactivated and chemicals are broken down in air and on surfaces, the hydrogen peroxide molecules are broken back into carbon dioxide and water molecules, ensuring all areas are treated.
Tested, certified and verified technology
Nevegy patented technology has been tested against a wide range of virus and bacteria, and has been certified for hospital use due to its effectiveness and safety ratings.
The technology has been installed in millions of square meters worldwide and is helping make indoor spaces around the globe safer for all occupants, preventing pathogen transmission, removing chemicals, making hotel rooms safer, etc.

What do these tests mean for food inside a reefer or cooler?
We asked Chat-GPT the following question, here is what it had to say:
If we can eliminate 85% of bacteria, mold and yeast in a refrigerated container that is transporting food, how much food loss can we prevent?
Achieve 20-40x Return on Investment
We additionally asked the cost savings for different types of fruits this could mean for a 40' container.
Can you estimate how much savings per 40' container this would mean for different types of fruits, for example (Berries, avocados, bananas, apples)?
