WEST SACRAMENTO, CA – TOMRA Sorting Solutions US Food division opened a new state-of-the-art facility in West Sacramento, CA on Wednesday.

“With extra space and better facilities, including test, demonstration and development areas, the new West Sacramento site will enable our US team to concentrate on developing solutions for the food industry in the region. The new premises will enable them to better serve their growing customer base in terms of sales and service,” said Ashley Hunter, Sr. Vice-President and Head of TOMRA Sorting Food.

The new site is 60,000 square feet and has state-of-the-art sorting solutions centers, where customers can see live demonstrations of TOMRA’s sorting, peeling and process analytics systems, according to a press release.

“TOMRA’s sorting solutions centers provide the ultimate experience and peace-of-mind for customers, who can stage trials using their own produce, and reflect the fact that their needs are becoming ever-more complex. The centers will also enable us to capitalize fully on our significant investment in research and development,” Hunter added.

The new location also features a cold room in its test and demonstration area to test individually quick frozen (IQF) products with TOMRA’s new Blizzard sorter.

The opening of the new facility follows the successful relocation of TOMRA’s facility in Dublin, Ireland.
