Fish & Seafood

Fish and seafood products place the highest demands on processing technology: sensitive cell structures, high susceptibility to oxidation and extremely low fault tolerance during injection or mechanical stress.
Maku relies on precise low-pressure injection, gentle tumbling processes and controlled brine distribution - for invisible processing, stable texture and maximum cost-effectiveness.

Maximum yield, stable texture and extended shelf life - even with highly sensitive products

Our recommendations for processing

Tuna

Central challenge

Tuna loses color quickly due to oxidation, shows high water loss during thawing and is prone to texture degradation under mechanical stress.

  • Gentle brine distribution without cell destruction

  • Effective colour stabilization (myoglobin protection)

  • Minimal structural load

Vacuum tumbler
  • Improving water retention

  • Homogeneous structure over the entire fillet

  • More stable texture during storage and processing

Our recommendations for processing

Prawns & Shrimps

Central challenge

Visible puncture holes, soft or rubbery texture and poor peelability impair product quality and market acceptance.

Special injection system
  • Special needles without visible puncture marks

  • Uniform hydration without structural breakage

  • Improved peelability

Tumbler
  • Gentle, even water absorption

  • Stabilization of the natural texture

  • Maintaining the typical „snap“ consistency

Our recommendations for processing

Salmon

Central challenge

Uneven salt distribution, structural breakage, high drip loss and reduced shelf life.

Low pressure injector
  • Precise, even salt distribution

  • Gentle processing of sensitive muscle structures

  • Uniform ripening without gaping

Vacuum tumbler
  • Gentle redistribution of brine

  • Stabilization of the fillet structure

  • Reduced juice leakage during storage

Our recommendations for processing

Scallops

Central challenge

Heavy water loss when defrosting, soft texture and uneven seasoning.

Injector
  • Even distribution of salt and functional substances

  • Preservation of the natural cell structure

  • Significantly reduced drip loss

  • High injection rate increases the yield

Tumbler
  • Controlled hydration

  • Stabilization of the texture

  • Homogeneous flavor distribution

Our recommendations for processing

Sea bream

Central challenge

Uneven brine absorption, structural breakage during processing and loss of quality due to oxidation.

Low pressure injector
  • Gentle brine distribution in the fillet

  • Avoidance of tissue damage

  • Even seasoning without visible traces

Tumbler
  • Gentle redistribution of brine

  • Stabilization of the fillet structure

  • Reduction of juice loss

Our recommendations for processing

Bacalao (cod)

Central challenge

Extreme dehydration, strong salt gradients and very long rehydration times with traditional processing.

Injector
  • Controlled rehydration in the product core

  • Even salt distribution

  • Massive reduction in process time

  • Rehydration in hours instead of days (no salt bath required)

Tumbler
  • Accelerated water absorption

  • Homogeneous product structure

  • Stabilization of the texture before further processing

Our recommendations for processing

Pulpo (octopus)

Central challenge

Extremely tough muscle structure, uncontrollable cooking texture and long pre-treatment times.

Injector
  • Targeted marinade placement

  • Flavor structure inside

  • Even seasoning over the entire tentacle

Tumbler
  • Mechanical fiber loosening

  • Activation of enzymatic processes

  • Significantly improved tenderness

  • High degree of injection possible
