In the intricate web of the global feed and food supply chain, precision and quality control are paramount. TEKPRO, a front running UK-based company, has carved a niche for itself with its innovative solutions designed to ensure the highest standards in post-harvest sampling and testing. Their flagship products—Samplex, Holmen, and Insectomat—each play a crucial role in maintaining the integrity and safety of the food supply chain.
Samplex: Ensuring Accurate Sampling
Samplex is renowned for its class-leading truck probes and inline samplers. These devices are essential for obtaining representative samples of bulk grains and cereals from trucks and storage facilities. Accurate sampling is the first step in quality control, ensuring that the grains meet the required standards before they enter the food supply chain. By providing reliable and consistent samples, Samplex helps prevent contamination and ensures that only the best quality grains are processed further.
Holmen: Testing Pellet Durability
Pellet durability is a critical factor in the feed industry, affecting both the quality and efficiency of animal feed. Tekpro’s Holmen range of pellet durability testers is globally recognized for its precision and reliability. These testers measure the mechanical durability of feed pellets, ensuring they can withstand handling and transportation without breaking apart. This not only maintains the nutritional value of the feed but also reduces waste and improves overall feed efficiency.
Insectomat: Detecting Pests Early
Insect infestation can be a significant threat to stored grains, leading to substantial economic losses and food safety issues. The Insectomat provides a quick and accurate method for detecting insects in grains such as wheat, barley, and oats. Early detection at the point of intake allows for timely intervention, preventing infestations from spreading and ensuring that the grains remain safe for consumption. This proactive approach is crucial for maintaining the quality and safety of the food supply chain.
Summary
Tekpro’s innovative product ranges —Samplex, Holmen, and Insectomat—all play indispensable roles in the feed and food supply chain. By ensuring accurate sampling, testing pellet durability, and detecting pests early, these products help maintain the highest standards of quality and safety. As the global demand for food continues to rise, Tekpro’s commitment to innovation and excellence will remain vital in supporting a secure and sustainable food supply chain.
