IQF Grilled Courgette Rondals
In Season
Processing
Courgettes are harvested, trimmed, delivered to the factory. Each load is sampled and assessed for foreign material and physical defects. The load is then cleaned, inspected, sliced, blanched, cooled, grilled, frozen and filled into bulk palletainers. Frozen grilled courgette is sampled and assessed against specification. The palletainers are then labelled and transferred to the cold store, where they are stored at -18ºC until required for packing.
Packing
During packing, courgettes are inspected before weighing and filling into blue poly lined cartons. The cartons are Best Before and Production date coded, check weighed and metal detected, palletised and stretch wrapped before being returned to store at -18°C to await despatch to the UK at -18°C.
