Neolithics, an AI agritech company revolutionizing the fresh produce industry, is launching Neolithics LightTM, an automated, portable produce inspection system. The non-destructive technology eliminates inspection waste, improves productivity, and increases the volume of saleable product, growing profits.
Retailers, distributors, and food processors can completely eliminate manual, sample-destroying inspections using Neolithics LightTM. The platform uses hyperspectral optics and AI frameworks to deliver previously unavailable insights including nutrition levels, Brix sweetness, project shelf life, maturity, anomalies, and detection of different organic compound distribution both internally and externally, among many others.
“We’re going to reduce food loss and ensure food quality and safety,” said Neolithics CEO Amir Adamov. “With manual inspection, more than 8 percent of each crop is destroyed. Thirty-five percent of crops are lost due to transport and shelf-life issues. With the speed and accuracy of our platform, most of those losses can disappear.”
Current manual processes require destroying as much as 5 percent of the entire crop, with the subjective measurements almost 30 percent inaccurate. Furthermore, data entry reduces turnaround speed and incurs significant labor costs – even more expensive with hiring challenges in the agricultural sector. Digitizing the system reduces inspection time by 90 percent and increases accuracy by more than 15 percent.
Clients already benefiting from Neolithics LightTM include Granot Fresh, one of the Middle East’s largest food cooperatives, as well as leading global produce distributors, overseeing hundreds of tons of gross product every day.
By implementing the Neolithics LightTM system, F&B companies will reduce OPEX while strengthening their competitive advantage, consumers will receive higher quality produce, and food production will automatically become more efficient.
“With long-term use of the Neolithics LightTM‘s produce quality analyses, retailers, distributors, and food processors can create different produce grades, charging more for higher-quality fruit and increasing their bottom lines,” continued Amir.
The Neolithics hardware delivers spectral analysis of various organic materials, while the software provides comprehensive data management for accurate grading and prediction. The Neolithics LightTM integrates with any third-party logistics, supply chain, or processing hardware and ERP software.
Get a Demo of the Neolithics LightTM at February 7-8, at Fruit Logistica, at the Granot Fresh booth in Hall 5.2 Stand D-23, Fruit Logistica, Messe, Berlin
