The food processing landscape presents unique challenges for mid-sized operations needing to address increasingly competitive environments while managing labour costs, maintaining strict hygiene standards and delivering consistent product quality.
Consumers trends shaping the retail food market
A number of trends are having a significant impact on food businesses:
- Retail locations are closing yet consumer spending on food has grown.
- Restaurant spending has reduced but the ready meal market has increased.
- Consumer interest in food safety and sustainable consumption has risen.
These trends signify a market opportunity for businesses if they can meet the operational demands of emerging market opportunities and have the ability to rapidly shift product lines.

TREIF dicing difference
Gridset
The foundation of TREIF dicing solutions lies in their innovative gridset design. TREIF dicers employ a modular approach so operators can replace specific components with ease and speed. Targeted replacement significantly reduces maintenance costs while optimising operational uptime.
Large chamber capacity
To avoid pre-cutting and quality inconsistencies seen with small infeed chambers, TREIF dicers come with large chamber capacity. This minimises manual handling and labour, factors that directly impact both food safety, operational efficiency and overall processing times.
Durability meets hygiene
Food safety remains paramount for consumer protection, brand reputation and regulatory compliance. All TREIF dicers feature a fully welded housing that eliminates crevices and joints, an easy-to-open design to facilitate maintenance, and thorough cleaning protocols that meet the most stringent food safety standards, including FDA and EFSA approval.
Energy advantage
With increasing operational costs, processors need to think sustainably. TREIF dicing solutions combine Eco-dicing and Vatronic technology to dramatically reduce energy consumption and lower operational costs.
For butcheries, grocers, mid-sized processors and commercial kitchens ready to increase their cutting capacity and quality while maintaining the trust they’ve built with their customers, JBT Marel equipment offers the foundation for sustainable growth and confidence in a consumer led, evolving marketplace.
