Vegetable processing using the PEF system manufactured by Elea.
Elea's "PEF Advantage B 1" system
By creating pores in the cell membrane through PEF (pulsed electric field) treatment, the potential of food is unleashed.
Elea's PEF is a process that creates pores with a diameter of a few nanometers in cell membranes at the cellular level. Elea offers various sizes of the "PEF Advantage" system for different production line capacities. Elea's systems place control in the hands of the operator, allowing for customization of process parameters. With a compact design, the system requires a small footprint for installation, making integration with production lines easy. For more details, please contact us. We will provide you with detailed materials.

basic information
[Advantages] 1. Improved Cutting: The softening effect of PEF makes cutting easier, improving yield and consistency in cutting, as well as enhancing knife durability. Improved slicing also reduces product waste and damage. 2. Faster Blanching: The open structure of cells induced by PEF allows easier access for enzymes. This improves enzyme inactivation, resulting in reduced blanching time. 3. High-Speed Drying: Electroporation of cell membranes enhances the movement of substances from the product, promotes moisture removal, and shortens drying time. 4. Reduced Damage During Canning: The open structure of cells and reduced turgor pressure lower the likelihood of damage during the canning process, resulting in more flexible and durable raw materials. 5. Less Water Cluster Formation During Freezing: PEF treatment allows more moisture to spread across the product surface before freezing, resulting in fewer water clusters.

Founded in Tokyo in 1948 by German entrepreneur Klaus Koerens, our company was the first German trading company allowed to resume business in Japan after the war. Since our establishment, we have walked alongside Japanese companies through Japan's reconstruction, modernization, and the period of rapid economic growth. Throughout our history of over 75 years, our constant passion has been to introduce cutting-edge technologies from Europe to companies active in various industries in Japan. At the same time, the diverse feedback from our Japanese customers has been reflected back to European suppliers, resulting in many instances of refined technology. We take pride in the fact that we continue to be a leading German trading company in Japan, as this reflects the high regard our efforts have received from both customers and suppliers. Moving forward, we will continue to stand between our Japanese customers and overseas manufacturers, being mindful of differences in business practices, culture, tradition, and behavior, and striving to create better relationships based on mutual respect. Furthermore, we will not only focus on product sales but also make efforts to provide long-term after-sales service to our customers after delivery.
