The new packing and distribution facility will increase Montague's packing capacity to reach more than 40 million kilograms of fresh fruit a year. The leading Australian fresh produce company partnered with TOMRA Food for its state-of-the-art technology's grading accuracy, capacity to deliver a project on this scale, and collaborative approach.

TOMRA Food introduces SmartGrade on its Spectrim platform. The new system puts the packhouse in complete control of grading with such accuracy that it is able to pack fruit to maximize sales by matching very precisely the specific requirements of the individual customers. It identifies each blemish and defect type, and maintains consistent grading performance even when there is high variability in the quality profile of incoming fruit batches. US-based packer Prima Frutta is an excellent example of how SmartGrade takes grading accuracy to an entirely new level, delivering significant improvements in efficiency, yields and profitability with all commodity types.

It combines faster throughput with the industry-leading gentle handling that is the hallmark of Compac's original box filler design.
