Agriculture and Food Processing
Agriculture brushes are specially designed and engineered to meet the high-volume demand in many applications. We produce brushes for seeding, harvesting, sorting, washing, waxing, drying and finishing.
-
Fruit and Vegetable Harvesting
AIB manufactures various brushes for harvesting fruits and vegetables. Staple set and spiral wound brushes are the most commonly used for this application.
-
Washing and Waxing
AIB produces brushes for washing and waxing many different types of fruits and vegetables. Brushes are typically made from a softer filament such as polyethylene and horsehair to avoid damaging the produce.
-
Drying
Fruit and vegetable drying is an important step in the food production process. AIB uses latex, foam donuts, or high density polyethylene (PEX) for these types of brushes due to the material properties that allow moisture to be efficiently wicked away from the produce.
