Kosher Controls
The Postiv system incorporates the following kosher control measures to ensure insect-free produce.
• Greenhouses Our state of the art greenhouses
are constructed of a superior mesh product designed exclusively for Postiv.
In addition to the extra-fine construction, the mesh is regularly sprayed
with a natural substance that repels insects. This virtually guarantees protection
against all airborne insects, which are the primary source of produce infestation.
• Ground treatment The ground is periodically
treated with a chemical substance to protect against any infestation of ground
insects.
• Field inspections Our kosher supervisors
constantly check all planting areas to ensure
their insect-free status.
• Washing A triple washing system with built-in
filtering in our processing plant was designed to our unique specifications.
The system is equipped with a mechanism that rotates the produce so that all
sides are exposed to the powerful jets of water. It guarantees that any possible
infiltration of insects is removed.
• Plant Inspections Kosher supervisors continually monitor and inspect finished bagged products.
The entire Postiv process is under the guidance and approval of the world-renowned expert
on halachic conformance of produce, Rabbi Moshe Vaye of Jerusalem. Additionally, Postiv Produce enjoys
the kosher supervision of OU, Rabbi Katz, and Rabbi Eckstein. |
