First spanish patent

Angel Borrell Devesa carried out the first patent in olive cleaning machines, in Spain in 1973 . Since then, the models have been improved thanks to constant investigation and development of new products that adapt to the needs of the different olive-producing areas and a constant evolution of demand. Both the range of cleaning machines and washing machines are based on own patent systems.

Origins The manufacturing of machinery for several agricultural products dates back to 1948 , although already in 1925 , Ángel Borrell Ivars , the current president’s grandfather built the first machinery for raisins and other fruit treatments. This long industrial tradition through four generations, has permitted the company to develop, olive machinery, of great quality and capacity since 1975 . The constant interest and the extensive industrial experience since the 1940´s led to create an effective and damage-free product. The result of this effort was the more than 2,000 units distributed all over Spain, especially concentrated in the Andaluzian olive grove map, during the 70´s and 80´s. Proof of this constant improvement in the products and interest for modernizing the oleic sector is the company’s attendance at the end of the 70´s at different contests of olive grove mechanization organized by the Department of Agriculture (see attached image). Since its origins it has been an organization open to any market which has olive installations at an international level.

Mr. Ángel Borrell Ivars builts the first machinery for raisins and other fruit treatments. It begins the grand-scale production of machinery for almonds. We make our first sorter machine for olives. Mr. Angel Borrell Devesa carries out the first spanish patent in olive cleaning machines. It begins the manufacturing of olive cleaning machines.
