The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) reported that the value of food loss in 2010 was about $161.6 billion. The agency stated that inadequate climate control is among the top causes of these losses, which amounted to about 1,249 calories per person per day. With temporary climate control solutions, food manufacturers can reduce food loss and improve safety by remaining compliant with USDA standards.
