INCORPORATING COLD CHAIN |

That process is very precisely monitored . The grapes get cooled to the exact core temperature at which the pack house is packing the grapes .
The whole temperature chain is monitored at every given stage , and is kept to an absolute high precision standard .
Once the containers arrive , they are checked for the correct temperature , pallets are moved through a temperature controlled airlock through proper dock seal
|
installations into the containers . Everything is being done to adhere to proper controlled and monitored temperature management principles . One thing that is super obvious ; there is no condensation in any of the pallets that get handled in this facility .
The packhouse , which uses the South African Adagin Smart Weigh system from Stellenbosch in the Western Cape , prevents over-packing of products . These systems save time and create more efficiency in the
|
packhouse . The system also saves on waste and that makes up for a good 30 % savings on a quality product .
The quality pack out in this packhouse is also something to observe and makes one think seriously . When they stop packing operations in their three different pack line areas at 16h00 , these areas are clean within five minutes after packing . There is no mess on the floors , the packaging material is managed to a “ T ,” no mess , no
|
spills , no waste at all . They clean the whole packhouse minutes after the operations stop in those sections .
The packed product which is again rigorously inspected for quality perfection by well trained and professional staff , is then transported to the cooling section of the packhouse . The quality control standards are extremely high and are strictly adhered to . All food safety regulations are further adhered to and strictly implemented . The
