We create fresh produce, fruit, vegetable, and salad solutions, including weighing, packaging, and inspection systems, that reduce waste and increase your bottom line. We start by simplifying produce handling as produce enters the facility with equipment to unload and store prior to processing. Truck dumpers, dirt removers, transfer, and bin storage systems handle large volumes of produce easily and gently. With considerable experience in the vegetable, salad, and fruit industry, our experts help you optimize food processing efficiencies by helping you find the right equipment for your needs. Our metal detection and X-ray machines lead the industry in contaminant detection technology to ensure rocks and other foreign materials are eliminated from the processing line.
