GB/T 47156-2026

This standard specifies the technical requirements for controlled atmosphere storage of apples, including optimal temperature, humidity, and gas composition (oxygen and carbon dioxide levels) to extend shelf life and maintain fruit quality. It is applied in cold storage facilities and supply chain operations for apple producers, distributors, and exporters in China. The standard is used to guide post-harvest handling and storage practices to reduce spoilage and ensure consistent product quality for domestic and international markets.
