About | A US company Trading in the meditarnien has been producing sun dried products with pride and integrity. Our tomatoes are harvested at the peak of ripeness and meet and exeed the strictest inspection standards. Fatyx contracts for the optimum tomato varieties from the best growers in North Africa. Tomatoes are sun dried in the world's largest and most advanced processing facility, where state-of-the-art technology and equipment assure a product of unparalleled quality. Fenced and paved dry yards, customized product and packaging capabilities, year-round availability, and new product development are just a few reasons why Fatyx is the leader in Sun Dried Tomatoes. Sun dried tomatoes exemplify the ideal ingredient for today's fresh and processed food products. Food manufacturers know to specify sun dried tomatoes when intense tomato flavor, healthful nutrition profile, versatility, convenience and value-added appeal head the list of product criteria. Equally important, sun dried tomatoes offer end-users a year-round, reliable source for pleasing tomato identity and taste. Lycopene, a micro-nutrient found in sun dried tomatoes, was cited as reducing the risk of heart attack by as much as 50% in a study published in the American Journal of Epidemiology. Farm fresh tomatoes are floated out of fiberglass gondolas. This method also helps to keep the tomatoes from bruising while being unloaded. Water helps the tomatoes to float onto a conveyor belt on their way to being washed and finally a fresh water rinse before they are sorted. Once the tomatoes are sorted they pass through a metal detector before they are off to the cutting machine. The cut tomatoes are then placed on drying racks. Workers make sure that the cut side of the tomato is up! this will ensure that the tomatoes dry properly in the sun. The face up tomatoes continue down the line to be dried. Fatyx utylizes state of the art scrubbing system to ensure that we comply with the most stringent EPA regulations. We look forward to keeping our environment clean for generations to come. Throughout the day, stacks of drying racks are sent to the drying yard Each rack is then placed by hand out in the yard to dry. The tomatoes are now ready to dry in the hot African sun. It takes 5 to 7 days for the sun to dry our tomatoes. They are returned to the product processing area where the tomatoes are removed from the drying racks and collected for processing. As the cut sun dried tomatoes continue down the line from the chopper, the product is again visually inspected to ensure that only the highest quality product is sent to our valued customers. The sun dried tomato halves are are cut to various specifications. Heall this effort is done to preserve the organoleptic qualities of tomato without using neither additive nor chemicals of preserving. If you need any quote do not hesitate we are looking for importer from Italy, Spain, Greece, USA and all over the world. |
