Aloe Vera Processing Lines

MNM designs and supplies integrated aloe vera processing lines, from whole-leaf receiving and preparation to UHT treatment and aseptic bulk filling.

The main product configuration is crushed aloe vera blended with its own juice. Aloe vera in syrup is an additional configuration, using formulation mixing before UHT treatment and aseptic bulk filling.

Product Configurations

Crushed Aloe Vera in Its Own Juice

Prepared aloe flesh follows the crushing route, then enters blending with filtered aloe juice before UHT treatment and aseptic bulk filling.

Aloe Vera in Syrup

Prepared aloe flesh is mixed with syrup according to the required formulation. The mixed product passes through UHT treatment before filling into aseptic bulk bags.

02 / Processing stages

From Whole Leaves to Bulk Products

Processing stageProcess and main equipment
Leaf Receiving and WashingWhole aloe leaves enter the receiving and washing section, which combines water spray, brush washing and a chlorine soaking basin in the reference configuration.
Leaf Preparation and PeelingOperators remove the base, tip and both side edges before mechanical peeling. The peeled flesh then passes through trimming and inspection.
Slicing and CrushingA slicer prepares the flesh for crushing. Water supports lubrication and product transfer within the process.
Aloe Juice PreparationFlesh allocated for juice production and suitable clean flesh trimmings feed the Low Pressure Extractor. The juice passes through collection and preparation tanks, a decanter and a filter press before blending.
Preheating and BlendingFor the product in its own juice, prepared crushed aloe passes through a tubular preheater before blending with the filtered aloe juice.
UHT TreatmentThe blended product passes through a tubular UHT system for heating, holding and cooling. Vacuum deaeration is integrated within the thermal processing section.
Aseptic Bulk FillingThe treated product is filled into aseptic bulk bags, followed by drum conveying and preparation for pallet handling.

05 / Connected production sections

Line Integration

The process connects leaf preparation, slicing and crushing, aloe juice preparation, blending and aseptic processing.

Conveyors, buffer tanks, transfer pumps, piping and controls connect the production sections. Rind and rejected material follow a separate waste conveying route, while suitable clean flesh trimmings are available for juice extraction. CIP connections and cleaning circuits support the relevant tanks and processing equipment.

06 / Project requirements

Planning Your Aloe Vera Processing Project

To develop the line configuration, provide:

  • Incoming leaf condition and required raw-material throughput.
  • Required product: crushed aloe or aloe in syrup.
  • Target particle size and product formulation.
  • Required finished-product capacity and bulk packaging format.
  • Available floor space and utilities.
