>> Production Process
Raw material receiving and sorting
Fruit Reception: berries are received and checked for quality, sorted according to size, ripeness and appearance.
Sorting and Cleaning: Sort the berries and clean them thoroughly with a water spray to remove dirt, pesticides and other contaminants.
Maceration and crushing (for purees and juices)
Macerating: The berries are crushed or macerated in a machine to release the juice and pulp for further processing.
Crush: To extract the juice, the berries are crushed into a fine paste or slurry.
Pulp separation and clarification
Pulp separation: A centrifugal separator or screening system separates the pulp from the juice. The pulp can be used to make purees, jams, or as a by-product for other applications.
Clarification: The juice is clarified by filtration or centrifugation to ensure a smooth texture and high quality.
Pasteurization
Pasteurization: Pasteurizing juices, purees, or other liquid products to destroy harmful bacteria, extend shelf life, and maintain flavor integrity.
Flash pasteurization: This method briefly exposes the product to high temperatures, preserving nutrients and flavor.
Concentration (optional)
Concentrate: If desired, juice can be concentrated using a vacuum evaporator to reduce moisture content and make it easier to store and transport.
Frozen (frozen products)
Flash Freezing: For frozen berries or fruit mixtures, the berries are quickly frozen using flash freezing technology to preserve their texture and nutrients.
Filling and packaging
Filling: Filling juice, puree or frozen berries into appropriate containers such as bottles, bags, jars or cartons.
Sealing: Containers are sealed to preserve freshness and prevent contamination.
Labeling: Automated labeling systems apply product labels and barcodes to finished products.
Quality control and inspection
Inspection: Check the product for consistency, flavor and packaging integrity. Automated systems detect unfilled containers or damaged packaging.
