Frozen Express is one of the largest potato processors and manufacturers of Frozen French fries in Colombia. The family-owned company has been producing potato products for more than 25 years and is committed to Colombian farmers.
In August 2021, Frozen Express has installed an Elea PEF system into their production line as part of an upgrade of their processing line. The aim of the PEF implementation was to be able to produce larger fries in different shapes with better quality and to save costs in the production process.
Guillermo Fonseca, verkfræðistjóri hjá Frozen Express segir: „Við ákváðum að nota PEF til að bæta línurnar okkar og framleiða betri mat með minna fjármagni. Elea var besti kosturinn fyrir okkur vegna þess að fyrirtækið hefur mikla reynslu, mörg skilríki og mjög góðan tækniaðstoð.“
Elea is the world-leading supplier of PEF technology and offers a range of different sized PEF belt systems with varying line capacities. Together with Ignacio Alonzo, Elea’s representative in Colombia, an Elea PEF Advantage B10 -320 system has been installed with a line capacity reaching from one single tuber up to 12 tons per hour.
Together with Ignacio Alonzo, Elea representative in Colombia, they have installed the Elea Advantage Belt in the scope of upgrading their preparation line. Alonzo assisted on-site with the installation and collaboration with the Frozen Express technicians.
Elea PEF tækni kemur í stað hefðbundinnar forhitunar á kartöfluhnýði og dregur úr heildarvatns- og orkunotkun. Auk þess hefur verið vart við bættan skurð, meiri uppskeru og betri gæði. Kerfið er sett upp áður en vatnsþotuskurður er gerður, þar sem lítill hiti og orkuferlið veldur mýkingu vefja og aukningu á skurði.
