The Haith SupaWash was designed specifically for larger potato packers for an advanced washing solution.
It has all the innovative, market-leading features that our standard barrels have including external bearings throughout and robust design but with the addition of a separate clean water discharge tank.
Barrel washing has been the preferred option over many years for the removal of soil from vegetables, although other options have been tried and tested we still come back to the rotary drum being the best and most reliable way of washing due to the gentle scrubbing action when vegetables are rotated in a barrel filled with water.
Through our market leading innovation team we are continually researching ways of improving our equipment to give the best in class vegetable handling solutions to our clients.
The latest Haith Supa-Wash incorporates all of the standard features on our barrel washers which include shaft mounted drives, cooper split bearings on the main drive shaft, split drive shaft with coupling, all bearings are external and away from water for ease of maintenance and longevity, conveyor rollers with shaft locking system, heavy duty laser cut barrel with slots or holes depending on product being washed, fully pintle rubber lined inside the barrel, air operated full width discharge door and HMI touch screen control with diagnostics.
The waste which is collected in the base tank can be automatically removed by an auger and scraper elevator system alternatively you can have a series of air valves which can be controlled to dump in sequence monitoring the volume of water usage.
All barrel washers can be supplied as a complete system with de-stoning on the in feed and a floating waste removal unit on the out feed of the barrel which is ideal when the washer is incorporated in to potato processing line.
This Supa-Wash comes with the addition of an internal de-watering cone section with lifters on the outfeed of the barrel to gently bring the potatoes out of the drum and feed into a separate integrated clean water tank; this removes any dirty wash water residues left on the vegetables from the barrel keeping bacteria on the product to a minimum.
A CIP cleaning system can be supplied as an option which allows automatic internal sanitation of the washer, this is controlled from the HMI and can easily be done at the end of each shift, which is another important factor in reducing bacteria and improving vegetable shelf life.

Here at Haith we are proud to say that we are one of the only companies in our sector to be continuously owned by the same family since the company was founded.
It all began when, at 18 years old, Geoff Haith started carrying out repairs for local farmers leading him to realise that there was a need for a more mechanised way of washing and grading root vegetables, with his engineering ability and farming background he designed and manufactured machines for carrot, potato and beetroot handling.
The business, until recently, has been run by Geoff’s five sons and daughter, backed by a great young management team to ensure the continued success of the company, there are over 120 people employed at our factory in the UK and multiple agents around the world promoting the Haith brand globally resulting in a network of excellent installations and satisfied customers worldwide.
Haith has continued to grow in size and strength and has moved on 3 occasions to larger premises with more production area, this has led to the present ultra-modern wholly owned facility with around 6,000 m² of production space on a 6 acre site in South Yorkshire which is equipped with the most up to date CNC laser, waterjet and bending equipment.
Haith have achieved many awards for machine design over the years and are especially proud to have twice been awarded the highest accolade in the UK, The Queen’s Award for Enterprise, both times in the Innovation category, as the only company in the field to hold this prestigious award, Haith’s emphasis on continual innovation and development with a view to keeping the UK vegetable industry at the forefront of technology has been acknowledged.
