Today health safety is crucial for processing plants and it is closely connected with crates for animal live handling too.

Therefore, we design and manufacture a series of machines to wash any type of crate for animal live handling and for any production capacity.

Our manual line for live handling is designed to provide slight support to operators working in the live handling area and it mainly consists of a stainless-steel roller conveyor with rollers made of synthetic material and of a high-pressure cleaner.

This solution, being a semi-automatic system, is ideal for small production capacity plants. This kind of line requires the use of plastics crates stacked on top of each other. The line works both with or without metal pallet.

This line wholly automatically destacks and stacks back again crates: it is a clear advantage in terms of both productivity and operators' comfort. At the end of operations, crates are ready to be reused.

This is an extremely compact system but, at the same time, it offers the flexibility required to fit to the highest production capacities. The line is completely automatic and customized.

Verderio container system for transport is designed and manufactured to allow a stress-free loading and transport of animals thus optimizing animal welfare and final product quality. This container system can fit to various types of plastics crates.

A system that completely complies with Regulation EC no.1099/2009: complete, easy-to-use, extremely flexible and open to continuous improvement and future development. Data recovery, by operators, is easy and fast too.

A system that completely complies with Regulation EC no.1099/2009: highly-efficient and provided with safety and control systems to guarantee effective and risk-free stunning operations.

The bird end quality mainly depends on this first phase as wrong bleeding has a negative impact on animal welfare and meat quality. Verderio killer is provided with two stainless steel tracks to guide necks through the carotid artery cutting station.

Bird killing and bleeding are crucial phases as to meat quality and animal welfare. Verderio killer is provided with two stainless steel tracks guiding necks through the carotid artery cutting station.

After killing, it is necessary to collect blood during the bleeding phase.

The stainless steel trough runs beneath chickens to collect their blood which is then pumped outside the room.

An excellent plucking phase depends on proper scalding, which basically means correctly balancing stay time in the water and water temperature to the aim of facilitating operations and guarantee an excellent final product.

This picker can remove around 85% of feathers. Effectiveness combined with gentleness: the skin is not damaged and the meat quality is guaranteed. Its use also allows to lower the scalding temperature.

Verderio Discomatic picker is installed next to the Contromatic picker to the aim of completing plucking as gently as possible. It is used to remove feathers left in the most critical areas, such as wings and tail.

Verderio in-line head puller is effective, operator-friendly, flexible and guarantees the final product top quality because it never damages birds. It is efficient and easy-to-clean: an essential element for any automated line.

Verderio hock cutter is accurate and efficient. It is designed to automatically and properly position birds whose hocks are then easily and rapidly cut. Each element is carefully studied for the maximum of productivity and the best comfort.

Verderio hock unloader removes hocks still hanging on the shackles after hock cutting. This operation is completely automatic and no operator is required.

Two versions are available: traditional wash and ultrasonic wash. Our shackle washers perfectly clean any kind of shackle and even extensively used shackles. Their main characteristics are: high productivity, low water requirement and deep cleaning.

Verderio ventor is designed to accurately process birds, even in case of flock variance. It reduces the risk of contamination to zero and is highly reliable, accurate, easy-to-sanitize, safe and fast.

This machine is installed next to the ventor: the hole drilled by the ventor is widened to allow evisceration. This operation is automatic, fast and accurate.

Verderio automatic eviscerator can process various species. It is completely autonomous, efficient and facilitates the necessary veterinary inspection. We highly recommend it as a major resource for an automated line.

Verderio cropper can be installed in any evisceration line and its multiple versions allow to reach high production capacities. It is reliable, sturdy, easy-to-use, to sanitize and to service.

Verderio neck cracker is driven by the overhead conveyor and equipped with working units which break necks at the desired point regardless of flock variances.

Verderio final inspection machine is designed to meet the increasingly higher quality standards of the final product. Through suction, it removes the residues left after evisceration. It complies with the strictest sanitary regulations.

Verderio offers a series of bird inside/outside washers fit for any production capacity. These machines are efficient, accurate and never damage birds.

Verderio viscera sucking machine is designed to suck viscera of birds sold as "whole chicken" with liver and gizzard, but it proved to be extremely effective for plants processing also or only hens (both big and small) offering an important series of advantages.

An effective and automatic solution to transfer birds from the evisceration line to the cooling line. It is an ideal solution for highly automated plants.

This machine effectively and automatically transfers birds from the evisceration line to the cooling line. During this phase birds are individually weighed to be subsequently unloaded, after the cooling line, by the unloading stations based on their weight.

The easiest system for air cooling and the best suited for low production capacity plants.

Chickens can be easily and fast hung by their knees.

At the end of the evisceration line, birds have to be cooled and the cheapest system is the water chiller.

This system uses cold water to rapidly lower bird temperature and it is recommended in case of frozen products.

The processing cycle ends up with carcass cooling.

An extremely effective as well as cheap system is the multi-bird hanger system, which is recommended for small/medium size plants.

At the end of the evisceration phase, the most flexible cooling system is the single-shackle tunnel as it guarantees the best final product as well as the maximum automation degree.

We developed this alternative wash method approximately 15 years ago following to the customers' growing demand for a higher hygienic/sanitary standard of process shackles.

This system, compared to traditional shackle washers with brushes, guarantees a 100%-clean shackle even in case of unusually-shaped shackles

The ideal solution for low production capacity and low automation plants: it is versatile and easy-to-use, but guarantees high productivity and fits any cut-up requirement.

An automatic solution for an easy, fast, precise and operators' friendly cut-up. Sanitation is comfortably carried out thanks to easy access to the machine.

Compact size, high efficiency, easy-to-use, easy-to-clean: this filter separator is designed to optimize and automate the separation of solids and feathers from liquids.

Safe, efficient and reliable, this screw compactor allows to considerably reduce the volume of feathers originated by processing. Easy-to-use and easy-to-service: this machine, as any other Verderio machine, is designed to facilitate each operation.

We designed this special overhead conveyor over 20 years ago to the aim of raising the hygienic standards of processing plants. In fact, this overhead conveyor is entirely made of stainless steel and does not need as much components for installation, thus meaning a shorter installation phase and easier cleaning operations.

Our plant control software is based on a visual logic and the use of 3D graphics makes it absolutely intuitive because it shows each single machine being part of the customers’ plant.

Modern processing lines are ever faster and plants need to be more and more flexible.

Therefore, Verderio developed a special in-line grading system to meet customers' needs. Our systems are completely expandable in time.
