VAM WaterTech consolidates its water treatment solutions for the agri-food industry at Fruit Logistica 2026

Optimising water use in postharvest washing and handling processes has been a priority for the agri-food industry for many years. In this context, VAM WaterTech has established itself as a specialised provider of water treatment solutions specifically designed for fruit and vegetable processing and packing lines.

The company works with systems that enable operation in closed water circuits, significantly reducing water consumption—by up to 95%—without compromising microbiological safety or product quality. This approach responds both to increasing regulatory pressure and to the need to maintain stable, safe, and economically viable processes.

Process water control as a cornerstone of postharvest safety

VAM WaterTech’s solutions are designed to eliminate bacteria, fungi, pathogens, and residues present in process water, minimising the risk of cross-contamination during washing and handling operations. This level of control is particularly critical in facilities handling large volumes, multiple product origins, or supplying markets with stringent food safety requirements.

Effective water treatment also contributes to improved process uniformity, reduced losses associated with sanitary issues, and extended commercial shelf life—factors that are directly linked to the profitability of fresh produce packinghouses.

Operational efficiency and applied sustainability

Beyond water savings, VAM WaterTech systems help reduce costs related to equipment maintenance, effluent management, and unplanned downtime. By preventing contaminated discharges, facilities move towards more sustainable production models, aligned with CSR policies and the requirements of major international markets.

The company offers modular solutions adaptable to different line configurations, with direct integration into existing processes. Its more than 25 years of experience in the agri-food sector is supported by in-house R&D, remote monitoring capabilities, and continuous technical service.
