Tomatoes provide a good source of vitamins and minerals, are low in calories and high in carotenoids, beta-carotene and lycopene. Recent research shows that when processed, tomatoes have even higher levels of lycopene, which is one of the most powerful natural antioxidants.

Batch Line Tomato Preparations
This line handles smooth to small particulate products. It allows you to produce a greater variety of products, from smooth sauces to crushed or diced component sauces. It enables batch production with a stand-alone processor capable of cooking with direct or indirect heating and cooling. It also enables texturisation of tomato products for particle standardisation while enabling incorporation of small particles, such as cubes. The recipe-specific shear rate in mixing, gentle blending of particles and optimal heat treatment achieves the desired product characteristics. Our line enables production with exceptional quality and efficiency.
