Totapuri IQF mango dices manufacturing process
Totapuri IQF mango dices are manufactured from premium quality totapuri mangoes that are sourced from certified farms. Once the mangoes reach our factory, the fruits are washed with chlorinated water at 100-150ppm. The totapuri mangoes are then peeled and sliced manually ensuring the process is fine-tuned. The mango slices are then washed with fresh water to remove dirt and speck particles. The mango slices are then passed through the dicing machine to get the desired Totapuri mango dice. The mango chunks are individually quick frozen by an IQF freezer to get the desired frozen mango chunks. By maintaining fluidisation and a constant temperature of -18 to -21 degrees, this method ensures that every part of the totapuri mango dice gets frozen. This results in each piece of frozen mango dice being frozen separately rather than as a unified block. By ensuring equal air dispersion throughout, the product damage is minimized. The frozen mango dice are passed through the metal detector to make sure no foreign materials are present in the product. Eventually, the IQF Frozen mango dice are packed in LDPE bags and stored in cold storage(-25 to -29 C) to retain the natural flavour of the fruit. The IQF mango dice are passed through the metal detector to eliminate speck particles. The frozen mango dice are dispatched through a refrigerated container by maintaining the preferred temperature to maintain the natural flavour of the product.
