New Zealand HQ
Our facility in Taupo, New Zealand
Our honey processing facility in Taupo is home to all our offices and workspaces for the team.
It also houses our warehouse and our advanced honey processing system.
Warehouse
The process begins
The honey is shipped from our beekeepers in drums to our warehouse, where it's stored until it's selected for production.
Before use, the honey is moved into a warming chamber to bring it up to temperature.
Filtration
The honey is filtered
The honey drums are taken out of the warming chamber and tipped into the processing system.
The honey then passes through several fine-mesh filters to remove any unwanted particles, primarily wax fragments.
Creaming
Stirred to a smooth cream
Next, the honey is cooled through heat exchangers before being transferred into large mixing tanks.
Once in the mixing tanks, the creaming process begins, giving our Manuka Honey its distinctive smooth, creamy texture.
Bottling
The honey is bottled
The creamy honey is transferred into the bottling room, where the jars and containers are filled.
After filling, each jar and container is sealed and fitted with a lid.
The journey begins
Labelling
Each honey jar and container receives a label on both the container and lid, goes through a final quality check, and is prepared for shipping.
