Automation in post harvest technology does much more than make processing and packaging streamlined and smooth. Our clients enjoy larger yields of export grade produce, they get better prices for product and many have been able to gain access to high-value, pest sensitive markets.
To date, we’ve developed post harvest technology solutions for clients growing and packing apples, citrus fruit, kiwifruit, stone fruit, cherries and avocados. Post harvest solutions have also included material handling, empty and full carton handling, sorting and tracking, palletising and cool storage.
