 A sustainable and cost-efficient solution to transfer your tomato varieties (crushed, peeled, concentrate, paste…)
 
We know that you want to guarantee the highest quality of your processed tomato products while reduction your operational costs. Not an easy exercise…

Join us on May 5th at 10 am CET to discover a range of gentle pumping solutions that allow you to speed up your process, reduce waste and improve safety & hygiene.



One of the significant trends in your industry are fulfilling high quality demands and reducing cost of the production process while complying to the latest sustainability regulations.

You are using various techniques to empty drums, tanks or bulk containers of a variety of tomato products (crushed, diced, peeled, paste, concentrate, juice…) into your production lines; all having some impact on quality or cost. 

Dumping and scooping are the most commonly used techniques as they do not or only have a small impact on the quality of the product. But they are causing safety issues for your employees and a lot of product is still left in the tanks which does have an impact on your costs.


Some of you might be using progressive cavity pumps but they do have too much pressure variation and have high costs as stators need to be replaced quite often.

Also still being used are AODD-pumps but they can impact the quality of the product. And it will only allow you to pump over short distances.

Tune in on May 5th and learn how you can speed up the transfer process without losing on quality 



As a worldwide manufacturer of pumping equipment, we have proven expertise to transfer a variety of tomato products (crushed, diced, peeled, paste, concentrate, juice…), no matter what the viscosity is, from a pail up to a tote into your production lines.

Our techniques are designed for gentle pumping and operating with less than 1% product waste, making it possible for you to extract more value from your operations.
