Responsible Production and Consumption is one of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), part of the agenda adopted by world leaders in 2015 to eradicate global poverty, protect the planet, and create prosperity for all its inhabitants.
Goal 12, Responsible Production and Consumption, focuses on eliminating food waste and loss. Waste occurs in households and businesses selling to final consumers. Loss happens during food harvesting (fruits, grains, and vegetables), often due to off-season harvesting, improper handling, or adverse weather conditions. It also occurs when storage facilities are inadequate, shortening product shelf life, or during transportation due to technical issues or human error.
This is where Cold Wind System technology aligns with Goal 12, Responsible Production and Consumption. By measuring airflow and pressure inside refrigerated containers transporting perishables over 15+ days by sea, the system helps maintain product freshness during transit, ensuring they arrive with a long shelf life and preventing food loss during transport.
