The Lebanese family company Agrifresh produces fresh, ready-to-eat cut products for restaurants, caterers, supermarkets, and private households. At its modern production facility, the company has been using processing technology by KRONEN for several years to process up to 25,000 kg of fruit and vegetables both hygienically and efficiently every day-
All of its processing activities focus on achieving automation, efficiency, and hygiene. The company uses various KRONEN machines for the different steps of cutting, washing, and drying, including the GS 10-2 belt cutting machine, the HGW manual grid cutter, the GEWA 2600 ECO and GEWA 3800V Plus washing machines, and the DS 1000 batch blower washing machine. The KS-100 PLUS vegetable and lettuce spin-dryer then ensures that the products are dried gently.
Agrifresh uses these solutions to process an extensive range of products, including iceberg, romaine, loll and oak leaf lettuce, arugula/rocket, cabbage, tomatoes, potatoes, and carrots. Since 2016, the company has been continuously expanding its machine portfolio to increase its production capacities and meet high demands in terms of quality and hygiene.
Every station used in the process – from preparation and cutting to washing and right through to spin-drying – relies on KRONEN technology. This enables Agrifresh to produce fresh products with a shelf life of up to seven days and constantly high quality. The machines used in its production activities stand out due to their reliability, easy operation, and hygienic design.
With this modern equipment and its cooperative partnership with KRONEN, Agrifresh guarantees resource-friendly, efficient, and safe food processing, which forms the basis for its successful supply of products to demanding markets in Lebanon all year round.
