Autofruit is designing the next generation of post-harvest equipment. A global equipment provider dedicated to partnering with producers long-term to drive the future of blueberries.

Purpose Built for Blueberries

Autofruit intends to manufacture precision-engineered equipment designed to meet the challenging requirements of blueberry post-harvest.

We do this through our global market exposure, intuitive market understanding, and engineering-led focus. This has led to breakthrough innovations to support our ever-evolving industry.

Decades of Experience

Our team has decades of experience in the blueberry industry, from electrical, mechanical, and software design of sorting systems, through to manufacturing, commercial, and technical support.

We know what it takes to make packhouses perform, because we understand the realities of production: variability in fruit, pressure on throughput, and the need for dependable, cleanable equipment.

Performance and Accuracy

Blueberries provide many challenges. This high-value, delicate product is difficult to handle, has a variable size range, and multiple defects. In these challenges, Autofruit sees opportunities to ensure that every pack leaving your facility is free from mistakes.

This is achieved by delivering the whole package. A system that is fast, gentle, and accurate, whilst remaining simple to clean and service.
