Iranian Knowledge-Based Firm Makes Hygienic Egg Packaging Machinery
“Farm packers and egg packaging machinery, industrial and manual jet printers, daters and adhesive labels are among the most important products made by our company,” said Amir Asadollah Golestani, the managing director of the knowledge-based company.
“Egg packaging machinery designed and produced in our company performs the process of correctly placing eggs from their sharp tip into the packaging, fully automatically and without hand contact. This makes egg packaging more elegant and increases the shelf life of the product,” he added.
“Our customers, who are equipped with these egg packaging machines and jet printers, offer products with hygienic, elegant, and completely uniform packaging to export markets, which have been well received in these countries,” Golestani said.
In a relevant development in June, Iranian researchers at a knowledge-based company stationed at Isfahan Science and Research Town had also achieved the technology to produce eggs containing folic acid which is absorbed as much as 95 percent in the body.
“One of the useful foods produced in our company is eggs enriched with folic acid (B9). This egg is suitable for 3 categories of people; pregnant women, children and people with cardiovascular diseases,” said Mohammadreza Ebadi, the managing director of the knowledge-based company.
“Only 40% to 50% of folic acid enters the body in the tablet form, and based on this, we used technology to add the chemical form of folic acid into the diet of laying hens, and when the hens use this diet, the form of 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, which is exactly the same form that the human body needs, is created,” he added.
“Therefore, an egg that is rich in folic acid is produced, while its folic acid content is 6 to 8 times higher than that of a normal egg, and over 95% of its folic acid will be absorbed in the human body,” Ebadi explained.
