Tea & Coffee
Material Processing Solutions for Tea and Coffee Producers
From green and roasted coffee beans to ground coffee, loose-leaf tea, powdered ingredients and finished blends, tea and coffee products require careful handling throughout production. For premium products in particular, unnecessary breakage, fragments or carryover can affect quality, consistency and ultimately product value.
Akona Process Solutions engineers integrated systems that protect product integrity while supporting hygienic, efficient and reliable processing. Our solutions combine gentle conveying, controlled ingredient loading, screening and blending to help manufacturers maintain quality from receipt through to packaging.

Engineered Solutions for Tea and Coffee Processing
Akona brings together specialist technologies from Cablevey, Kason, Marion and Spiroflow to support individual processes or complete production systems.
Our engineers understand the importance of protecting delicate, high-value products, maintaining blend consistency and reducing carryover between different origins, varieties and flavors. We configure each solution around the product and production process rather than applying a standard equipment package.
Protecting Product Quality Across Modern Tea and Coffee Production
Tea and coffee manufacturers are producing a wider range of products than ever, from premium whole-bean coffees and delicate loose-leaf teas to flavored blends, instant drinks and ready-to-use powdered formulations. This variety creates an increasingly complex material handling challenge.
Every product behaves differently during processing. Roasted coffee beans can chip or fracture, tea leaves may lose their structure and powdered ingredients can create dust or flow inconsistently. Equipment must therefore be selected around the material’s characteristics rather than simply the required throughput.
For premium coffee in particular, every broken bean represents product quality and value that cannot be recovered. How ingredients are handled between roasting, storage, blending, grinding and packaging can directly affect appearance, consistency and yield. A well-integrated system can protect the product while improving hygiene, production control, and operating efficiency.
