Almond processing factory that preserves the authentic taste
Alfrus is an almond processing factory set in Italy, passionate about doing well and preserving almonds’ authentic taste. We bring the best processed almonds across Europe every day, selecting the best raw material in a respectful and sustainable way.
For us, authentic taste must be preserved through natural processing stages and production cycles.
We always peel, cut, slice, sift and roast all our almonds with cutting-edge equipment, according to the standards of a Smart Factory 4.0. At the same time, however, we are careful to safeguard the original flavour of our products. And its nutritional properties.
We have founded our almond processing factory with the aim to offer our customers only high-quality and authenticity.
ALMOND PROCESSING FACTORY WITH HIGH-QUALITY STANDARDS
The quality of our almond relates to:
- Authentic taste
- Nutritional and organoleptic properties
- Absence of chemical or pathogenic elements
We pay close attention to quality controls as the products enter in our factory, following them along all the manufacturing stages in our almond processing factory, up to the shipping.
Our team of professionals carefully controls all the almonds in our internal laboratories with the best technologies, to guarantee food safety and high-quality standards.
Our plants are provided with optical sorters, x-rays and metal detectors able to immediately identify and isolate any non-compliant product.
This is how we are careful in safeguarding the authentic taste of these extraordinary fruits along the processing stages.
ALMOND PROCESSING STAGES: AUTHENTIC TASTE GUARANTEED
You can recognize our almonds’ quality at first sip.
Their taste and texture are different from any other, and vary according to the intended use. Our main customers, coming from food and confectionery industries, always ask for customized processed almonds, that must be “calibrated” down to the millimetre. And so, we do our best to satisfy them.
In our almond processing factory, therefore, we carry out only natural manufacturing procedures, including the ones which involve shelling and roasting. Nothing must be left to chance.
NATURAL ALMOND SHELLING STAGES
Our natural sweet-shelled almonds are boiled in hot water, and then we remove their skin with our ood-grade rubber rollers.
Once all the almonds become perfectly dry and cool, they are ready to be sent to our sorting machines and sieves, so that we can cut them into the sizes required by our customers.
TOASTING PROCESS THAT TAKES CARE OF ALMONDS
Roasting can be stressful for almonds so that it can cause a change in their taste, aroma, and texture. But not in our almond processing factory.
In order to protect the authentic flavour of our almonds without artificial changes, we process them in a state-of-the-art roasting oven. It is a four-stage oven that preheats, roasts and keeps under control the temperature until their complete cooling.
The whole process is carried out through gradual stages and it varies according to the roasting degree requested by our customers.
In fact, all our roasted almonds have taylor-made sizes and skin colour, relating to the specific requests of food and confectionery industries. We offer a final product with a uniform colour and unique flavour.
