Question 1

What is controlled atmosphere (CA) storage?

Accepted Answer

Controlled atmosphere (CA) storage is a refrigeration technique that lowers oxygen levels and raises CO₂ to slow the respiration of fruits and vegetables. CA storage extends shelf life by 2 to 10 times compared to standard refrigeration. Arkan Integrated Systems supplies CA and ULO (Ultra Low Oxygen) systems by Marvil Engineering across the UAE and GCC.

Question 2

What does Arkan Integrated Systems do?

Accepted Answer

Arkan Integrated Systems is a Dubai-based engineering and supply company. It designs, supplies and commissions industrial cold chain rooms, controlled atmosphere storage, hydroponic farming systems, and water treatment plants for the food, agriculture and hospitality industries across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman and Bahrain.

Question 3

Is chlorine dioxide (ClO₂) safe for water disinfection?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Chlorine dioxide (ClO₂) is a broad-spectrum biocide approved for drinking water and food-contact disinfection. It is more effective than chlorine against biofilm and Legionella, produces fewer disinfection by-products (DBPs), and works across a wider pH range. Arkan supplies Apura ClO₂ dosing systems for anti-legionella programs and antibacterial process water in the UAE.

Question 4

Who are Arkan Integrated Systems' official partners?

Accepted Answer

Arkan Integrated Systems is the official Middle East partner of three Italian manufacturers: Apura (water treatment, chlorine dioxide, anti-legionella, reverse osmosis), Incold (modular cold rooms, sandwich panels, isothermal doors, rapid doors), and Marvil Engineering (controlled atmosphere storage, ULO/CA systems, nitrogen generators, CO₂ absorbers, ethylene scrubbers).

Question 5

Do hydroponic systems work in the Gulf climate?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Closed-loop hydroponic and vertical farming systems use up to 90% less water than soil-based farming and are well suited to arid GCC climates. Arkan supplies MicroFarm units (6 m²), restaurant green walls, and 20–40 m² hydroponic pods with smart irrigation and nutrient control for restaurants, hotels and farms in the UAE.

Question 6

What countries does Arkan Integrated Systems serve?

Accepted Answer
