Retailers and Foodservice operators across multiple industries to benefit from industrial grade technology that delivers up to 50 % more juice per orange than traditional juicers
JBT Marel, a leading global provider of integrated food processing solutions, unveiled a fresh juice game-changer: the Fresh’n Squeeze® 1800 Citrus Juicer. It features the same whole fruit extraction technology as the larger free-standing models in the Fresh’n Squeeze® product line. (Which is also the same technology that allows JBT Marel to juice over 75 % of the world’s citrus, thanks to its industrial grade juicers.) The big difference lies in the size: the 1800 model features a smaller countertop footprint that will save retailers on labour and space, whether they are a grocery store, juice bar, hotel, resort, or coffee shop.
The Fresh’n Squeeze® 1800’s advanced whole fruit extraction process delivers fresh, flavourful juice by instantly separating juice from peel and seeds to preserve its integrity. This fresh citrus juice solution maximises juice yield by up to 50 % per fruit compared to traditional cut-and-press technology. It can process up to 50 oz of juice per minute while preserving natural taste and nutrients, ultimately enhancing profitability for a higher return on investment. This opens the door for food retailers and foodservice operators to consider it as a fresh differentiator for their business – as well as a source of additional revenue.
“Implementing Fresh’n Squeeze® juicers in-store has been linked to an 18 % increase in sales,” said Megan Dyer, Director of Key Accounts and Beverage at JBT Marel. “The fresh aroma of citrus and the health-focused connection to fresh juice create an experience that attracts customers and encourages them to purchase. It’s a win-win for shoppers looking for healthier options and food service retailers looking to broaden their offerings with fresh offerings, drive traffic to the perimeter, and strengthen their bottom line.”
The Fresh’n Squeeze® 1800 is capable of handling all types of citrus fruits without adjustment or additional juicing heads. This enables businesses such as hotels, restaurants, and coffee shops to diversify their menus with ease. It also allows for customisable pulp content for added versatility.
With its compact, sleek design, the Fresh’n Squeeze® 1800 is built to save valuable floor space while offering ease of use and long-term reliability. The machine’s minimal parts simplify disassembly and cleaning, which reduces maintenance. Engineered for durability, the Fresh’n Squeeze® 1800 is capable of withstanding high-volume use in both behind-the-counter prep and front-of-house self-serve settings.
