Marel machines machine significantly reduces your reliance on labour and enhances processing speed.

Marel is Transforming Tuna Processing

  (ICELAND, 7/22/2024)

Traditional tuna processing involves cooking the fish and manually disassembling it to extract the meat for canned tuna. This method relies heavily on scarce labor, fails to maximize the potential value of by-product raw materials, and keeps operating costs high.

Marel is transforming tuna processing by introducing innovative techniques such as deheading and filleting the fish before cooking with the Curio Fish Filleting Machine and Curio Heading Machine, effectively reducing labor requirements, broadening your product range with high-value by-products, and cutting operational costs.

Increasing profitability in more ways than one way

Marel's innovative approach revolutionizes tuna processing, enhancing profitability by offering a wide range of finished and by-products. From whole white loin sold raw or cooked for canning to shelf-stable products, frozen raw portions, and minced meat, each product maximizes the value of the fish. Valuable by-products like fish oils, collagen, pet food, and fish meal further contribute to this value. Moreover, this method conserves energy by reducing the cooking time required for processed tuna, ensuring operational efficiency alongside profitability.
