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, voditelj inženjeringa u Frozen Expressu, kaže: „Odlučili smo koristiti PEF za poboljšanje naših linija i proizvodnju bolje hrane s manje resursa. Elea je bila najbolji izbor za nas jer tvrtka ima puno iskustva, puno akreditiva i vrlo dobru tehničku podršku.”
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 tehnologija zamjenjuje konvencionalno predgrijavanje gomolja krumpira i smanjuje ukupnu potrošnju vode i energije. Osim toga, uočeno je poboljšanje rezanja, veći prinos proizvoda i bolja kvaliteta. Sustav se instalira prije hidromlaznog rezanja, gdje proces niske topline i energije uzrokuje omekšavanje tkiva i poboljšanje rezanja.
