The agri-food industry is an essential sector in the productive structure of a country, and like any other industry, it is no stranger to advances in technology for the improvement of its techniques, processes and the quality of its final product.
So much so that in recent years the term "foodtech", which refers to the application of technology to improve the production, storage, distribution and supply of food, has become very popular. In fact, one of the largest Fairs at European level that is committed to digitization and innovation in the agri-food sector is Alimentaria Foodtech, whose last edition was held in Barcelona in late September 2023, bringing together more than 360 companies and more than 15,000 professionals from the agri-food industry.
The challenges of the future mean that the entire sector is committed to following this path in order to remain competitive and continue on the road towards more efficient, productive and sustainable processes. And the challenges are not few: climate change, the increasingly recurrent droughts, inflation and rising production costs ... therefore, it is necessary to continue taking steps forward in this transformation towards agri-food innovation.
What solutions does Megablok provide for innovation in the agri-food sector?
Megablok provides equipment solutions that help to improve and guarantee the safety and hygiene of both the environment and the workers themselves, as well as facilitating their work-life balance and even improving the company's internal processes.
Specifically, we have two main lines with which we respond to the needs of the sector:
A) TRADITIONAL SOLUTIONS
By traditional solutions we refer to all our locker equipment, where phenolic lockers stand out, but especially stainless steel lockers for the agri-food sector, lockers required by regulations in many cases and which, due to the characteristics of their material, allow easy and optimal cleaning as they have antibacterial properties and are suitable for humid and even very humid environments. Also, this type of lockers have a sloping roof that allows optimal cleaning of the top to prevent the accumulation of dirt or bacteria in that area.
In Megablok you have different types of stainless steel lockers with which your company will be able to comply with the regulations and ensure a scrupulous and maximum hygiene in the work environment.
B) TECHNOLOGICAL SOLUTIONS
Megablok, through our Community Locker smart locker division, offers companies in the agri-food sector a solution with which to take a big step forward in various areas that we will now detail, fully committed to the digitization and sustainability of the sector, and its profitability in the medium and long term.
Specifically, the installation of a smart locker within an agri-food company involves the following advances:
-
Improvement of work conciliation
By allowing your company's employees to receive all kinds of packages so that they can pick them up at the end of their working day, thus avoiding having to go and pick them up at other delivery points when they are not at home.
-
Improvement of the company's internal processes
By installing an electronic locker you will be able to create a system for exchanging materials between, for example, workers on different shifts. Similarly, this solution will allow a quick and optimal management of the cleaning of work clothes, in the event that workers leave them at their work station before leaving, to be cleaned by the personnel in charge of it.
As we can see, agri-food innovation is a fact, and it is the only way for the sector to continue taking steps forward to ensure its profitability over time, given all the social, macroeconomic and even atmospheric challenges it must face in the future.
