In line FMC System

In the new industrial plant in Capo d’Orlando, we improved our industrial process by increasing production capacity and product diversification.

The citrus fruits coming from acceptance are suitably treated before moving on to extraction with the in line FMC system, which allows the immediate segregation  of the juices from the essential oils and , when required, from  to peel and zest.

We can process up to 100,000 tons of citrus fruits per year.
