In a banana ripening room, pallets of boxes of fruit are stacked in individual locations defined by a support structure, in two spaced apart rows separated by an aisle, and in two superimposed tires. The aisle defines a volume into which air is introduced under pressure by fans in an overhead space separated from the room by a false celing. All the gaps between adjacent pallets and structural members are sealed by rubber flaps, an efficient seal being obtained when boxes are used which are designed for use in pressurised ripening systems. The flaps are attached along one edge to structural members and free at their other edges to conform to the contours of the pallet loads, thereby ensuring that air can be cycled only through the pallet loads to lower pressure zones beyond the rows of pallets. .

Dans une mûrisserie de bananes, des palettes des boîtes de fruits sont empilées en piles individuelles dans des emplacements définis par une structure de support, sur deux rangées séparées par une allée et sur deux pneus superposés. L'allée définit un volume à l'intérieur duquel l'air est introduit sous pression par des ventilateurs disposés dans un espace aménagé au-dessus de la pièce, derrière un plafond suspendu. Les espaces entourant les palettes voisines et les éléments structuraux adjacents sont scellés par des volets en caoutchouc assurant un niveau d'étanchéité satisfaisant lorsque des boîtes spécialement conçues pour cet usage sont utilisées dans la mûrisserie pressurisée. Les volets sont reliés par un bord aux éléments structuraux , leurs autres bords épousant le contour des charges palettisées pour ainsi contraindre l'air à circuler vers le bas et à travers les charges palettisées jusqu'aux zones de pression inférieure.
