OptiCept Receives Order from Dole Worth 4 MSEK
OptiCept Technologies ("OptiCept") has today received a strategically important order from Dole regarding CEPT® systems for liquid food, valued at 4 MSEK. Dole has a need for additional CEPT® systems at their facility in the Philippines, and this order is the first of several expected.
The system will be used to maximize the extraction of pineapple juice at Dole’s new production facility in the Philippines, where OptiCept’s CEPT® technology is being integrated into the production process. Delivery is expected at the beginning of 2026.
“We have worked closely with Dole for over two years to enable this integration. Taking the step to a commercial order is a very important breakthrough for us. Dole’s decision to choose OptiCept as their PEF supplier after their very thorough validation in their production gives us the opportunity to now quickly grow within the juice segment, where many follow the market leader,” says Thomas Lundqvist, CEO of OptiCept.
Dole has identified the need for additional CEPT® systems for its facility in the Philippines and has expressed an intention to place more orders as their investment plan progresses.
