por Rechel

Do You Love Fresh Fish?

Everyone likes to eat fresh fish and yummy shrimp. But do you ever wonder, “How does all that tasty seafood stay so nice from the sea to my kitchen?” Here is the secret: 7. caminhões refrigerados! Let’s dive in and learn how these trucks, built by pro teams like us at GRUPO CLW, make sure your seafood is safe and tasty.

Why Does Seafood Need a Cool Ride?

Seafood can spoil super fast. It does not like getting warm. Bacteria e enzymes start making trouble if fish gets too hot. Smelly, slimy, and bad to eat! So, what’s the answer? Keep it cold every step of the way…

Look at this cool chart!

Seafood TypeBest Transport TempHow Long It Lasts if ColdIf Too Warm
Fresh Fish0°C to 4°C10-14 daysJust 2-4 days!
Frozen Seafood-18°C or colderMonthsSpoils super fast

See? Just a few degrees too warm, and your fish is yucky in no time! This is a big deal for families, shops, and restaurants everywhere.

What Makes Seafood Go Bad?

Let’s talk about the naughty things that ruin seafood:

  • Spoilage bacteria: These little guys LOVE a warm truck. Cool temps slow them way down.
  • Enzymes: They break down the fish (this is called ATP degradation) and make it mushy.
  • Chemical changes: Things like TMAO changing to stinky TMA! You want your fish to smell fresh, not fishy.

When a truck gets too warm for even a few hours, it is risky:

  • A hot truck can make seafood unsafe to eat.
  • It can lead to illness, like histamine problems and scombroid poisoning.

Why Can’t We Use Regular Trucks?

You might ask, “Why not just a regular truck with ice?” Well, imagine a hot summer road, the sun baking the truck all day. The ice melts. The fish warms up. Bacteria start to party.

The Science of Staying Cold

So, why does cold help so much? Here’s how it works:

  • Bacterial growth slows down. At 0°C, those bugs barely move!
  • Enzymatic activity drops. Fish stays firm, not mushy.
  • Bad smells (like from VBN, TMA, TVBN) don’t build up.
  • Shelf life gets longer—days or weeks of safe, yummy seafood.

“Mesophilic bacteria double every 30-60 minutes at 25°C, but only every 12-24 hours near 0°C.”
