Sugar is widely used around the world, however, it is extremely hygroscopic and absorbs moisture very quickly. Humidity and sugar form sticky compounds that cause many problems for the confectionery industry. As part of quality assurance, industrial dehumidifiers belong to the must-haves of the confectionery industry: ensuring dry ambient air throughout the production chain. All production stages and room sizes can be equipped with dehumidification systems and corresponding industrial dehumidifiers that can prevent problems:

1. At a relative humidity of less than 60%, moisture absorption can be prevented, which can affect the final product;

2. Sugar-containing ingredients will not stick together, making it easy to process and store;

3. It reduces the drying time of finished products such as candy or fruit gum;

4. Candies in the cooling channel can be prevented from condensation;

5. control of humidity, control of microbial derivation and better protection in terms of microbial contamination;

6. Cardboard packaging remains dry and stable;

7. Maintain the cleanliness of the equipment and reduce the damage to the equipment.

In order to reduce humidity throughout the production process, industrial dehumidifiers are used judiciously during the transportation of raw materials, in sugar silos, in sugar coating pans, in drying chambers, in molding machines as well as during packaging, cooling and storage.

Good dehumidification begins with the transport of powders and granules and then considers the transportation routes. Pre-drying the air used in air-conveyor drying ensures that the sugar is transported dry to the silo to ensure its processability. In packing and shipping warehouse areas, industrial dehumidifiers prevent candy and cardboard boxes from sticking together, ensuring the quality of the finished product.

For confectionery manufacturers, which industrial dehumidifier is appropriate, the condensation principle or the desiccant principle depends on different factors: room size is as important as the ambient temperature. PARKOO industrial dehumidifier, according to the customer dehumidification area size and humidity control needs to configure the appropriate industrial dehumidifier to carry out reasonable dehumidification. Multiple series, multiple models, configured with high-quality hardware equipment, large suction, dehumidification faster. Different models to meet different dehumidification needs, accurate temperature and humidity control, help dehumidification work.

There is strict humidity control in candy production, the relative humidity of brown sugar or raw sugar is less than 40%. In the packing area, the recommended temperature and relative humidity are 20°C and 30% respectively. Different finished candy products require different industrial dehumidifiers. PARKOO's Professional Services team of consultants will help and advise customers when calculating capacity, operating costs and selecting the required equipment.
