Two work steps in one compact tabletop device:

This new additional processing solution for pineapple combines two work steps in one compact tabletop device: the new MPC 100 manual pineapple chunk cutter first cuts pineapple cylinders into slices and then cuts these into even chunks in the second step.

They come in colors ranging from orange, yellow, and green to a grayish blue, white, or even patterned and are available in all kinds of different shapes and sizes: pumpkins and squashes are varied, decorative, and suitable for longer-term storage. The many different edible varieties of pumpkins and squashes can be used to prepare a multitude of dishes.

Sodexo uses KRONEN processing solutions to provide food services for the Santander Group City in Madrid

A wide range of healthy meals with freshly prepared ingredients, more sustainable production, and a reduction in costs were the main objectives of the food processing concept center constructed by Sodexo, a globally successful provider of services in areas such as company food service and facility management, which is based at the huge headquarters of the Spanish financial group Santander on the outskirts of Madrid.

"The plant was already installed back in 2016 and was expanded in August 2022. The expansion enables KRONEN GmbH to meet a substantial proportion of the power requirements for its sites in Kehl-Goldscheuer and Achern itself.

The new additional panels were installed on the roof of the company’s building in Kehl in the summer. The building includes part of KRONEN headquarters, which is home to both its administration department and the production activities for the food machines that KRONEN manufactures itself and delivers to around 120 countries worldwide."

KRONEN has firmly integrated sustainability as one of the core values of its corporate philosophy.

Also this year KRONEN supports the SOS Kinderdorf Schwarzwald with a donation.

Given the strongly growing demand for cut, ready-to-eat salads in Mexican supermarkets, a salad wholesaler recently decided to join the fresh-cut sector. This was certainly a successful decision: even before going into operation, its new processing line already had plenty to do for several weeks thanks to the multitude of orders already received. The line is now up and running and is able to reliably process up to 700 kilograms of lettuce leaves per hour. Planning for an extension is already underway.

Cabbage is cultivated in many countries all over the world and is a healthy ingredient in all kinds of different cuisines – be it raw, pickled or boiled. Here in Germany, it is best known in its fermented form: as the famous “sauerkraut”. Given its suitability for long-term storage and its long shelf life, pickled or fermented cabbage has been one of the world’s most important vegetables for centuries. In fact, tons upon tons of its leafy heads are still cultivated and processed in many countries all over the globe in the present day.

"A rare special occasion: within the scope of a major order, the company KRONEN in the German town of Kehl am Rhein is manufacturing four processing lines, one of which was recently demonstrated live to an audience of interested guests invited by KRONEN. The automated, networked line is the third of the four lines that make up the order. Two of the lines are already operating in the facilities of the fresh produce manufacturer, and the other two will be installed by the end of the year. The processing lines boast state-of-the-art technology and set new standards, above all with regard to hygiene. The demonstration offered the visitors from throughout Europe, Latin America and the US the opportunity to experience the innovative system close up and in action while it processed a product."

Most of the live demonstrations held in September took place on site at KRONEN’s facility in Kehl and welcomed participants from Germany, Switzerland, Norway, the Netherlands, Mexico, Belgium, and Poland. What’s more, an online demonstration via a live broadcast was provided for representatives of around 50 companies from Latin America and the USA, who were unable to attend in person.
