Al Karam Rice Mills, a prominent rice processing facility in Depalpur, was looking to modernize their operations and increase production capacity. Their aging SM-18 rice polishers were no longer meeting the demands of a growing market, and maintenance costs were escalating.
The Partnership
Al Karam Rice Mills partnered with Sufi Engineering to find a comprehensive solution. Sufi Engineering's team conducted an in-depth analysis of their existing setup and recommended a complete fleet upgrade from the SM-18 to the advanced SM-2500 Rice Polishers — machines built for higher throughput and energy efficiency.
