Growing the perfect piece of fruit takes years of effort. Selecting the correct plot of land, choosing the right cultivar and carefully nurturing the plant through the early years. In the months before harvest there is hard work pruning, fertilising, spraying and giving the fruit the best chance of being in perfect condition when it comes time to harvest.

The sticker on a piece of fruit is part of your brand promise - the eating experience will meet consumer expectations and keep them coming back for more.  But how can you guarantee the taste of the fruit?

Six years ago, Compac set out on a journey towards an ambitious goal: to build the world’s most powerful grading platform. This would be a system allowing packers to not only eliminate manual sorting but also produce the most consistent product for market, drastically improving their bottom lines. 

Here's the inside story of the last two years and how Spectrim was developed with our industry partners, including an exclusive interview at the launch site Washington Fruit where Spectrim is helping them change the way they're operating and deliver more consistent fruit to market, all at a lower cost.
