TNA has inaugurated a new manufacturing facility in Woerden, the Netherlands, enhancing the company’s ability to supply processing equipment to manufacturers in the potato processing industry.
TNA says the new 3,600 square-metre facility will manufacture a comprehensive range of processing equipment, including fryers and freezers and pre-processing equipment such as peelers, washers and dryers.
The facility will also incorporate an expanded ‘Food Technology Testing Centre’, which will show clients how TNA’s food processing equipment operates in a fully-operational factory setting.
TNA claims that the new facility will reinforce the company’s position as one of the leading suppliers to manufacturers in the potato and vegetable processing industries.
Nadia Taylor, co-founder and director of TNA said: “We’re incredibly excited to officially open our new food processing centre.
“The new site is three times bigger than the previous Florigo factory, which not only strengthens our current manufacturing capabilities, but also ensures that we have the capacity to further expand our operations in the future.
“It’s also great news for our customers who now have even more room to test our equipment. From cutting and drying through to frying, seasoning and distribution, all the way to our high-speed packaging technology, the new factory will be the first place where we’ll get to showcase our entire range of start-to-finish solutions.”
TNA’s CEO Alf Taylor added: “The Netherlands has always played an important role in the global potato processing industry.
”The Dutch are not only amongst the top ten potato producers in the world, but also achieve the highest average yield rates per square meter.
“We’re proud to be part of such an important sector and look forward to continue sharing our own success with the local industry.”
