Use Cases of Implementation for Freshness Preservation

・Normally, the texture deteriorates after about 3 months, but with the introduction of DENBA, the shelf life was extended by 2 months, allowing the texture and quality to be maintained for up to 5 months.

・By storing part of the caviar without DENBA and part with DENBA, the peak flavor period of the product was extended.

・Thanks to the extended peak flavor period, the caviar could be sold at a higher price over a longer period than usual.

【Conditions】

・Tuna, sea urchin, salmon roe, and white fish are stored in a 0°C storage unit.

【Results】
・Maintaining freshness (color and moisture retention) is difficult with regular storage, but with DENBA, no discoloration occurred and freshness was preserved—earning high praise from sushi chefs.

・Two units of DENBA+2.0 were installed in a prefab freezer to enable freezing and freshness preservation.
・Introduced for the purpose of reducing food waste, particularly to preserve the freshness of chopped green onions.

【Conditions】

・Two DENBA Fresh Pro units were installed in a natural refrigerant freezer and refrigerator.

・Meat was frozen using DENBA, then thawed with DENBA freshness preservation.

【Results】

・Beef tongue and skirt steak reached top-grade quality.

・Even after 4 days of storage in plastic wrap, there was no discoloration, trimming was unnecessary, and meat waste was eliminated.

・The photo is just one example, but for all beef cuts, a clear difference in color and drip was observed depending on the presence of DENBA Fresh Pro.

・When stored with DENBA Fresh Pro, no issues with color or drip were observed even after 36 hours.

・Without DENBA Fresh Pro, products require a 20% discount sticker based on the standard expiration period in order to sell, but with DENBA Fresh Pro, such discounts are unnecessary, enabling better cost-effectiveness.

・It can also solve issues such as storing chicken and freezer burn in open showcases during summer.

DENBA Fresh Pro： Approximately 180 cm of the showcase can be covered by a single discharge plate.

・To prepare for the spike in strawberry prices during Christmas, freshness preservation was introduced to allow purchasing in advance when market prices are low.

・Also used for preserving a wide range of fruits used in fruit-based cakes.

・DENBA+2.0 was installed without taking up extra space.

・Thanks to the simple installation process, the system was set up during business hours.

・Handles the storage of products for businesses that mainly import frozen meat from Europe.

・Unlike conventional warehouse companies that only offered storage, this service provides paid high-quality thawing using DENBA in a 2°C refrigerated warehouse, and delivers the thawed meat to stores and supermarkets.

・The number of client businesses is increasing, as supermarkets, food retailers, and restaurants can now avoid the time and cost of thawing frozen meat in-house.

Yuwa Suisan, a seafood company, received the Best Award in the frozen and refrigerated category at Gulfood 2024, the largest food exhibition in the Middle East held in Dubai (internationally promoted and exhibited at the event by KYnext). Its "Emperor Oyster," preserved using DENBA freezing technology, was selected from approximately 500,000 products.

This award demonstrates that DENBA technology enables advanced freshness control.

Although these oysters are farmed in the Seto Inland Sea of Japan, known for its clean waters and long-standing reputation, they previously could only be enjoyed during a limited season. With DENBA, they can now be enjoyed year-round.

【Issue】During normal storage, mold would develop on 3–4 grapes per bunch after more than a month.

【Result】After introducing DENBA for storage, no mold was observed, leading to improved quality.

・By installing DENBA in a commercial refrigerator and thawing at a controlled temperature of 1–2°C, uneven thawing was eliminated, resulting in significantly improved knife performance.

・This enabled cleaner cuts, which not only enhanced product presentation but also reduced food waste and improved kitchen workflow.

・By installing DENBA and storing meat in a prefabricated cold room set at 1°C, temperature was kept stable.

・The vibration of water molecules generated by DENBA suppressed discoloration the following day, eliminating the need for trimming and reducing both food waste and labor costs.

・By using DENBA to induce subtle vibrations in water molecules and activate them, the chilled range was expanded, creating an environment in the sub-zero range (0°C to -4°C) where freezing is less likely to occur.

・With ordinary freezing and thawing, sashimi often sticks together due to uneven thawing, but with DENBA, thawing occurs evenly, allowing sashimi to be served in a fresh state.

・Typically, the expansion and contraction of water during freezing and thawing damages the cell structure of sashimi, but DENBA prevented this damage.

・Frozen and thawed beef tongue using DENBA technology.

・The meat was preserved in a fresh state without losing its juices.

・This not only improved profitability but also enhanced customer satisfaction through better quality.
