Washing and drying

The cleaning and washing phase of the vegetables must be effective, but also delicate, in order not to alter the quality of the product. The experience gained over many years has taught us that washing technology and the product to be washed are deeply interconnected, which is why we offer a range of specific machinery for the cleaning needs of each product.

Among these:

• water hoppers
• washing tanks
• separators (desoilers)
• de-stoners
• polishers
• vegetable washers
• drum washers
• sanitizing conveyors
• washing-peeling machines (Sgorbati – spring onion wash/peeler)

To increase the shelf life, the final product must be subjected to drying the excess water left over after washing. For this application Sgorbati Group provides various specific solutions for individual products. Alongside drying machines that use conventional techniques, such as centrifuges, we also provide air jet solutions.

Compared to other available systems, our solutions guarantee optimal operation with a relatively low energy requirement.
