Tomatoes Dried in the Sun

A genuine product of Italy, known for its vibrant red color and distinctive elongated shape.
Its soft, delicate texture captures the true taste of the earth. No chemical additives are used in the drying process — only the sun and a touch of salt. The salt naturally preserves the tomatoes without altering their flavor, leaving just a hint of brininess thanks to an innovative salting method.

Production Process
of Concentrated Tomato Products

Receiving and Sorting

Fresh tomatoes are transported to the factory and fed into the initial sorting system: defective fruits, soil, stones, and impurities are removed through inspection gates, optical scanners, conveyor belts, and manual checks

Washing

After sorting, the tomatoes are washed with clean water to remove any remaining dirt

Heat Pre-treatment and Cutting/Crushing

Hot Break: crushed at 85–100 °C to produce a smooth, thick product, used for ketchup or lightly concentrated products (28–30° Brix).
Cold Break: crushed at 65–75 °C to preserve flavor and nutrients, used for highly concentrated products (36-38� Brix).

Extraction and Pulp Removal

After crushing, the tomatoes are fed into the 'passatrice' and 'raffinatrice' machines to separate the juice, remove skins and seeds, and collect the extracted liquid/pulpy juice

Concentration

The juice is pumped into a multi-stage evaporator under reduced pressure to preserve flavor and nutrients. The process occurs in stages to achieve the desired concentration (e.g., 36% Brix for triple concentration).

Sterilization and Packaging

The concentrated product is sterilized (pasteurization or aseptic) according to requirements, then packaged into cans, tins, sterile bags, or bulk containers, ensuring food hygiene and safety.
