In the competitive global fresh produce market, meeting stringent phytosanitary standards is the key to success. For international importers and distributors, the biggest challenges are pest control and shelf-life stability.
Vietnam has emerged as a powerhouse in mango exports by adopting Vapor Heat Treatment (VHT)—a non-chemical, eco-friendly process that eliminates 99% of bacteria and pests, ensuring your shipment meets the rigorous entry requirements of the US, EU, Japan, Korea, and Australia.
What is VHT (Vapor Heat Treatment)?
Vapor Heat Treatment is a physical sterilization method that uses saturated water vapor at high temperatures to treat fresh fruits. Unlike chemical fumigation, VHT is safe for human consumption and maintains the natural integrity of the fruit.
Why VHT is the Gold Standard for Mango Exports:
Zero Chemicals: No harmful residues, making it ideal for health-conscious markets.
Pest Eradication: Effectively eliminates fruit fly eggs and larvae (Tephritidae) without damaging the pulp.
Shelf-Life Extension: The controlled heating process slows down the ripening enzymes, giving distributors more time for logistics.
Premium Quality: Maintains the natural aroma, vibrant color, and sweetness of premium Vietnamese mango varieties like Cat Chu and Hoa Loc.
The Step-by-Step VHT Process in Vietnam
To ensure 99% removal of harmful organisms, our facilities follow a strict, automated protocol:
Selection & Cleaning: Only high-quality mangoes with the right maturity levels are selected.
Pre-Heating: Gradually increasing the temperature to avoid heat shock to the fruit skin.
Core Heating (The VHT Core): The mangoes are treated with saturated vapor until the core temperature reaches $47^\circ C$ or higher (depending on the target market’s protocol) and held for at least 20 minutes.
Hydro-Cooling: Rapid cooling using cold water or air to stabilize the fruit’s texture.
Drying & Packing: Mangoes are dried and packed in sanitized, ventilated boxes in a clean-room environment to prevent re-contamination.
