TESTIMONIALS
"We are so satisfied with our new pasteurizer that we are drawing up plans for a second Laitram CoolSteam line. The entire Laitram team has been great to work with. We look forward to a very long-term relationship with the good folks at Laitram."

"The CoolSteam Pasteurization system is an all-natural method that maintains the quality and integrity of the cashews, macadamia nuts, and pecans we are currently running through the line. Our operations team has found the equipment to be very user-friendly. The recording and built-in monitoring of vital elements of the process instills great confidence that the equipment is meeting or exceeding performance expectations."
