Citrus Technology

GP Graders is an industry hot-house for Research and Development. With approximately 90% of our R&D projects embarked on becoming commercially successful. The entire culture of our company revolves around innovation and development of practical and market driven solutions.

A brief list from the hundreds of innovations we have bought to the market in citrus include:

  • Our fully automatic trickle belt fillers to fill RPCs,
  • Our vibra fillers for vibratory filling of cartons,
  • Our defect sorting technology which does not require sorting staff.

GP Graders are leaders in innovative solutions for each market we participate in. We will not enter a market unless we have something truly unique and beneficial to offer our customers.  

And those solutions must either:

drive down costs through improved efficiency,

  • increase profit through improved product presentation and refined grading parameters,
  • be a lower cost alternative to what is currently available in the market,
  • meet a market demand that is not being satisfied,
  • reduce or eliminate manual processes to automated ones

Despite being in business for almost 50 years GP Graders are a young and dynamic company recruiting only the most intelligent team members in their field of specialisation. We are fully abreast of the latest technology available and adopt it across our entire product range.
