Fruit, nuts & vegetables

Belts for washing, blanching, drying and IQF freezing of fruit, vegetables and nuts.

Processing fruit, vegetables and nuts covers washing, blanching, drying and freezing - wet and thermal processes where drainage and medium flow through the product matter.

The open structure of Wire Mesh and Eyelink provides drainage and airflow, while TwenteFlex suits IQF spiral freezers.

Why a metal belt

  • Open structure = drainage and airflow.
  • IQF freezing in spiral systems (TwenteFlex).
  • Hygienic cleaning and corrosion resistance.
