The Brief
Drovers Hill Farm is an organic farm based in the Chilterns which produces organic apple juice & cider. Mark & Nicola's production aims were ...
- A pressing/milling system which involved minimal labour
- Pasteuriser
- Capper and labeller
The Solution
We supplied and installed a complete apple juice and cider production system including a Voran EPB350 belt press and SA wash mill, allowing them to press around 300 kg of apples per hour with minimal labour; a gravity filler; an in-bottle pasteuriser; a hand-held pneumatic screw cap tightener; and a VL/1 semi-automatic labelling machine.
The Result
Vigo have proved themselves over the years to providing an increasingly high level of service from advice through to design and supply. Equipment supplied by Vigo has been the foundation of successful growth of my company from hobby to a premium craft cider company now supplying national and world markets. I am very grateful for the assistance provided from the dedicated engineers, support staff and management over the many years we have worked together.' - Andy Orchards, former owner/founder, Cornish Orchards
