IQF White Cabbage Shredded
In Season
Processing
Cabbages are mechanically harvested and delivered to the factory. Each load is sampled and assessed for foreign material and physical defects. The load is then cleaned, shredded to a nominal 10mm width, blanched and frozen and filled into bulk palletainers. The frozen cabbage is sampled and assessed against this specification. The palletainers are then labelled and transferred to the cold store, where they are stored at –23°C until required for packing.
Packing
During packing, the cabbage is 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 -18ºC to await despatch to the UK at -18ºC.
