Turkey processing is more than just lining up a series of machines. Throughout the entire plant, the processes have to be adjusted to each other. The right products must be at the right destinations at the right time, so that the system knows what to expect.

Well thought-out internal logistics, as well as sophisticated software solutions are invaluable means to control the smooth connection between all elements in the turkey factory.

Water treatment is also a vital component in the turkey process. Waste water needs to be purified before it can be re-used.
