Digitalizing for sustainability Every year, an estimated 1.6 billion tons of food are lost or wasted along the value chain from harvest to consumer. As part of our mission to provide sustainable food for all, we apply digital technologies to every step of food processing. We continuously work on projects to build new digital infrastructure and advance automation and digitalization in food processing. By reducing waste and making every meal count, our improvements add up to tremendous benefits. A data-driven approach Our overarching software, Innova, connects entire processing plants, giving our customers full production control and seamless integration between different applications and machinery. We combine equipment, process knowledge, service and data analytics to create a system of smarter processing and proactive service. This reduces disturbances to our customers’ production process and ensures better support for the technicians on the factory floor. New scalable technologies and production channels, such as the Internet of Things (IoT), cloud services, advanced robotics and 3D printing, are essential to our products—now and into the future. Innovation through partnership From idea to prototype, we are proud to create some of our revolutionary technologies in partnership with other pioneering technology providers and food processors. We work closely with customers to innovate for their businesses and create fit-for-purpose solutions. Their collaboration helps build a deeper understanding of the industry’s needs, so we can also create better solutions for broader application. +354 563 8000 Social media Industries Poultry Meat Fish Prepared Foods Water Treatment More industries General Service Software News Events Webshop Company About Marel Our people CSR Demo Centers Work at Marel Contact Marel Investors Investors Understanding Marel Financials Shareholder center Corporate governance Newsletter Sign up for our newsletter Disclaimers Disclaimers General privacy policy 1999 - 2021 © Marel About cookies on this site We use cookies to collect and analyse information on site performance and usage, to provide social media features and to enhance and customise content and advertisements.
