Calbee Potato’s Success with TOMRA Sorting Technology
Steven Van Geel recently highlighted the positive collaboration between TOMRA and Calbee Potato, a major player in the potato processing industry. The partnership focuses on the integration of TOMRA’s advanced sorting technology, which has significantly enhanced the efficiency of Calbee’s operations. Specifically, the implementation of TOMRA’s FPS (Field Potato Sorter) and the recent switch to the TOMRA 3A potato field sorter have been instrumental in improving product quality and operational flow.
Calbee Potato has fully integrated the TOMRA 3A into their field loader setup, provided by DeWulfMiedema, ensuring that foreign material (FM) is efficiently removed before the potatoes enter storage. This technology plays a critical role in maintaining the high standards required for potato processing, reducing waste, and improving storage outcomes.
TOMRA’s sorting systems have been designed to meet the unique challenges of the potato industry, offering advanced solutions that help companies like Calbee achieve higher productivity while maintaining product integrity. This collaboration demonstrates the trust and confidence that leading agricultural companies place in TOMRA’s innovative sorting technologies.
