In 2004, Tummers Food Processing introduced the Zic-Zac brushing technique for brushing potatoes and tuberous plants after steam peeling. This industrial machine and the brushing technique were developed and patented in-house by Tummers Food Processing Solutions. At Interpom Primeurs, the company introduced a new version with a softer food grade brush which limits skin loss even further.
Hein Kortebos, Ronald Dekker and Dustin-Dwight Verhagen with the Zic-Zac brushing technique.
“This Zic-Zac technique, which leads the steamed potatoes vertically along the moving brush rolls, is a leading innovation in peeling techniques of the last 30 years, and is applied by many leading chip factories,” says Ronald Dekker from Tummers. “Extensive tests have shown that by using a softer brush, we are handling the product even better. An additional advantage is that the brushes last longer.”
