TOMRA's processing equipment ensures consistent food safety removing foreign materials and defects with superior detection capabilities on Macadamia Nuts. We combine state-of-the-art tech with automated sorting solutions to reduce labor costs, improve margins, and enhance operations with actionable data.

After cracking and before manual grading, we have halved the level of unsound nuts from 8% to 4%. No other technology can match this.

customer story

MACRIDGE, SOUTH AFRICA 

Flip Potgieter and his son Phillip started building Macridge in 2003. Since 2011, Phillip has been in the driving seat at Macridge, a well-established macadamia factory, nestled in the lavish Soutpansberg Mountains in the Limpopo Province, South Africa. The company specializes in processing and marketing macadamia nuts and they recently decided to partner with TOMRA Sorting Solutions to increase throughput as well as to achieve higher product quality.
