Lenger Seafoods has expanded its state-of-the-art de-sanding system in Harlingen, capable of handling up to 200 tons of shellfish per day. This innovative process ensures every product is perfectly clean, safe, and full of authentic sea flavor.
Lenger Seafoods continues to strengthen its processing capabilities with the expansion of its modern de-sanding systems in both Yerseke and Harlingen. The most recent upgrade in Harlingen marks an important milestone, with a state-of-the-art installation that can handle up to 200 tons of shellfish per day.
De-sanding is a crucial step in shellfish processing. It ensures that sand and impurities are completely removed, resulting in a product that is clean, safe, and ready for further processing or direct consumption. By investing in advanced technology, Lenger Seafoods guarantees consistent quality while maintaining the natural taste and texture that define premium seafood.
The expanded facility in Harlingen uses an innovative and carefully controlled process in which shellfish are gently purified in clean seawater conditions. This allows them to naturally release sand without compromising freshness or quality. The system is designed for efficiency, reliability, and food safety, meeting the highest industry standards.
Together with the existing de-sanding operations in Yerseke, the new installation in Harlingen significantly increases Lenger Seafoods’ total capacity and flexibility. This enables faster processing times, improved logistics, and the ability to respond even better to growing customer demand.
These investments underline Lenger Seafoods’ commitment to innovation, product excellence, and sustainable processing. By continuously upgrading its facilities, the company ensures that every shellfish product not only meets strict quality requirements but also delivers the pure, authentic flavor of the sea that customers expect.
