Mixed Pickle and Relish Production Line and Factory Setup

A mixed pickle and relish production line is a complete industrial system designed to sort, wash, slice, blanch, ferment and pack mixed vegetables into pickles or relish under controlled hygienic conditions. The line produces mixed pickles and relishes in jars or other packs.

From an industrial perspective, mixed pickle manufacturing is important because it combines accurate grading, controlled slicing and blanching, vinegar fermentation and reliable packaging to achieve consistent texture, flavour and shelf life. The process relies on a defined sequence of unit operations that must be correctly engineered, sized and integrated.

Primary materials typically include mixed vegetables (cauliflower, carrot, cucumber, pepper, etc.), vinegar, salt, spices and packaging materials. The core machinery set consists of sorting systems, washers, slicers (1000–5000 kg/h), blanchers, fermentation tanks, fillers, cappers and pasteurizers.

The Industrial Department supports investors who want to establish a new mixed pickle plant as well as existing operators who need repair, overhaul, capacity expansion or automation of their current lines. Projects can start from an empty site or from an operating facility that requires technical upgrading.

Whether the goal is a green-field turnkey pickle plant in Iraq, Kurdistan Region, Afghanistan or other regional markets, or the modernization of an existing line in Iran, engineering, machinery supply or manufacturing, installation, commissioning and ongoing technical support can be provided under defined contractual scopes.

Production Line Overview

The mixed pickle line is engineered as an integrated process system covering sorting, washing, slicing, blanching, fermentation in vinegar, filling, capping, pasteurization and packaging. Design capacity is determined during the engineering phase and can typically range from 500 to 2000 kg per day.

Main machinery groups include sorters, washers, slicers, blanchers, fermentation tanks, fillers, cappers and pasteurizers. Supporting infrastructure covers electrical power and process water.

Manpower requirements depend on the degree of automation. Quality control covers texture, acidity, spice profile and package integrity.

Manufacturing Process

  1. Sorting and Washing – Vegetables are graded and washed.
  2. Slicing – Vegetables are cut (1000–5000 kg/h).
  3. Blanching – Product is blanched as required.
  4. Fermentation – Vegetables are fermented in vinegar.
  5. Filling and Capping – Product is filled and capped.
  6. Pasteurization and Packaging – Product is pasteurized and packed.

Machinery & Equipment

  • Sorter, Washer and Slicer – Prepares and cuts vegetables. Position: first stages. Importance: size uniformity and hygiene. Quality impact: uneven pieces or residual dirt affect quality. Maintenance: knives, screens and conveyors. Sahi Rasa support covers design, installation, repair and spare parts.
  • Blancher and Fermentation Tank – Heat-treats and ferments the product. Position: mid-process. Importance: texture and flavour development. Quality impact: incorrect blanching or fermentation affects quality. Maintenance: heating systems, tanks and valves.
  • Filler, Capper and Pasteurizer – Packs and stabilizes the product. Position: end of process. Importance: net weight, seal integrity and shelf life. Quality impact: incomplete pasteurization affects safety. Maintenance: dosing valves, capping heads and heating systems.

Factory Layout & Building Requirements

Typical areas include vegetable reception, sorting and washing, slicing and blanching, fermentation, filling and pasteurization, packaging, quality control, utilities and staff facilities. Hygienic zoning is essential. Exact area is determined during engineering.

Utilities

  • Electricity: 380 V three-phase, 30–80 kW
  • Water: 10–30 m³/day

Turnkey Factory Setup

An investor can start from an empty site. The project can be accompanied through feasibility, engineering, design, machinery, installation, commissioning, training and commercial production.

EPC & PMC

Projects can be executed under EPC or PMC approaches within defined contracts.

Machinery Repair

Existing mixed pickle lines can request inspection, repair and spare-parts support for slicers, tanks, fillers and pasteurizers.

Machinery Overhaul & Refurbishment

Older equipment can be overhauled and control systems upgraded.

Capacity Expansion

Capacity can be increased by adding fermentation capacity or upgrading filling lines.

Industrial Automation

PLC control of slicing, temperature and pasteurization is typical.

Supply Chain

The Supply Chain Department supports packaging and auxiliary material supply.

Packaging

Jars, lids, labelling and secondary packaging are integrated according to market requirements.

Branding & Product Development

Support for product development, packaging design and branding is available when required.

Market & Country Sections

Services are available in Iran, Iraq, Kurdistan Region, Afghanistan and other listed regional markets.
