Oerlemans Foods STEP 1 - SEEDING, GROWING AND HARVESTING The ideal harvesting moment is chosen following regular checking of the crops. Our fields are very close to our production facilities to guarantee maximum freshness of the products. STEP 2 - WASHING, PEELING AND CHOPPING The products are being washed until every residue gathered during harvesting (stones, insects, soil, etc.) is removed. STEP 3 - BLANCHING Once the products have been cleaned it will be blanched. In this process the products will get a short-term heat treatment. STEP 4 - FREEZING Once blanched, the products go to the freezing tunnel. There it is subjected to an air flow at -40ºC which very quickly freezes the vegetables to a temperature of -18ºC within a few minutes. STEP 5 - PACKING AND STORING The frozen products will reach the packaging area, where they will be packed into the required packaging. GOT ANY QUESTIONS?
