Our Fair Future goals underline this commitment. By investing in innovation, sustainable technologies, and the people around us – our employees, customers, and partners – we continuously work to improve the potato processing industry. Sharing knowledge, training our people, and applying the best available tools allows us not only to increase efficiency and workplace satisfaction but also to prevent waste and safeguard the continuity of Kiremko.
The biggest opportunities for the coming years lie in data-driven insights. As we have highlighted in our sustainability initiatives, analyzing energy-intensive steps within the production line helps customers gain a clear overview of their processes. With these insights, they can make targeted improvements that deliver measurable impact in efficiency and sustainability.


Looking ahead, we see Smart Industry and AI as key drivers. As our director, Marcel van Huissteden, explains: “By applying more Smart Technologies, we can create greater efficiency. This means more precise processes, better temperature control, improved oil monitoring, and ultimately no oil loss. It’s all about working smarter with software and sensors – steering better, producing more efficiently, and staying future-proof.”
At Kiremko, reducing waste is not only about today – it’s about shaping tomorrow.
