Our purpose built cutting machine has been specially designed to cut cress providing the optimum shelf life.

Cut salad cress ready for washing

The produce is cut and then washed in a biodegradable sanitizer. The washing equipment guarantees the produce receives the 5 minute contact time required for the sanitiser to be effective.

Removing Salad cress seed coats

The seed coats are then removed by hand.

Drying salad cress in small batches

The produce is spun dry in small batches; the equipment is designed to ensure no damage to the produce.

Prepacked sealed cress in different sizes bags

The produce is sealed in bags that are designed to allow the cress to breathe, the bags are subsequently labeled to meet the customer’s requirements and coded to provide full traceability.
