In the biscuit manufacturing unit, the hot and fresh biscuits are cooled to ambient temperature before packing. Also, the packing rate is lower than biscuit production rate, the unpacked biscuits are shifted to a temporary store where they are exposed to the surrounding humid air.

Therefore it becomes essential that the humidity in the store-room (hot room) to be controlled to a level so that the quality of the biscuits is not spoiled.
