Overview
KAPP designscomplete pelagic processing solutions, from raw-material receiving to packedand palletized frozen products.
Each system istailored to the species, required capacity, facility, and final product.Integrated temperature control, freezing technology and automation helppreserve quality, improve yield, reduce manual handling and prevent productionbottlenecks.
Solutions can be designed for new facilities, integrated into existing plants,or adapted for onboard processing.
Operational Efficiency and Sustainability
An integrated processing line reduces waiting time, unnecessary handling, and temperature fluctuations. Efficient chilling, freezing, water filtration and automation help processors make better use of labor, energy, water and available space.
Integrated Technologies
FiltreX
FiltreX filters process water so it can be reused while maintaining recommended hygiene standards. Integrating FiltreX can significantly reduce water consumption, wastewater, and operating costs.
Slurry Ice System
The KAPP Slurry Ice System rapidly chills pelagic fish and stabilizes product temperature before further processing or freezing. The close contact between the slurry ice and the product provides fast, even chilling that helps protect quality, texture, yield, and shelf life.
Why Choose this Product
KAPP combines processing, refrigeration, and automation expertise to create one coordinated system. Each solution is engineered around the customer's operation and can integrate both KAPP technology and suitable third-party equipment.
