INCREASE PRODUCTIVITY, INCREASE YOUR BOTTOM LINE
01.
The manual labor intensive process of peeling fruits and vegetables means that it is also one of the most expensive task for any operation especially with labor cost rising nationally. When using the ASTRA Inc. lineup you are able to immediately increase the productivity of staff by saving valuable time and increasing production volumes.

Traditional hand peeling of fruits and vegetables by unskilled workers results in high waste and in some cases with fruits like Pineapples yields can be as low as 60%. In an industry with already tight margins, that waste is money being thrown away. The ASTRA Inc. lineup offers significantly increased yields helping decrease food cost, boosting those margins.
