Flottweg belt presses enable cost-efficient juice extraction with high product quality.
The direct juice, also known as mother juice, is a type of fruit juice that is ideally packaged immediately after pressing.
A distinction is made between clear and naturally turbid or cloudy juice. During production, it is particularly important to gently extract a large amount of the valuable juice from the fruit. Examples of this are orange juice or, in our region of the world, the classic apple juice.
The consumption of direct juice, not-from-concentrate, is steadily increasing due to changes in consumer behavior. Nevertheless, manufacturers of direct juices are constantly under great cost pressure, given rising costs related to processing and the varying cost of raw materials. At the same time, classic apple juice concentrate is frequently subject to price fluctuations, which makes continuous cost analysis essential. Therefore, the selection of a cost-effective pressing system that also achieves high-quality results is of great importance.
