Spring is coming! The fruit trees are Next, they’ll set fruit – cherries, summerfruit and apples, with kiwifruit not far behind. Time to plan ahead so that your packhouse is ready to go when the time is ripe…
Here`s our plan for a profitable season.
An efficient packhouse has:
- Great systems in place, designed to catch the freshness of the harvest and transform it quickly into a retail-ready, export-quality product.
- Staff available or on call for peak periods.
- Perfectly maintained equipment – ready for the rigours of a busy and productive season.
Making it easy for you:
We want your packing line to hum happily through the apple season, with components that aren’t going to let you down. That’s why we’ve put together a downloadable EQM Industrial Packhouse Maintenance Guide_2020_DIGITAL
A great checklist to decide which components need replacing.
The thing is, nowadays it’s not always so easy to get components from overseas.
Can you picture the frustration of a breakdown during the height of the season and finding they’re unavailable?
A maintenance plan put in now will save time and money when things are busy.
