Orogel, a large agro-food, is today the first fully Italian reality in the market of frozen vegetables and is a leader in the Food Service sector. Constantly engaged in research and technological development, Orogel has the mission to enhance Italian agriculture, respecting nature and its rules. The main purposes are: 

• increase efficiency 
• reduce costs 
• broaden space 

All of this is achieved while ensuring the highest hygienic standards throughout the path that goes from fresh product, to freezing until delivery. Accordingly, Orogel 3 is the arrival point of this completion culminated with the commissioning of the new cell.

Orogel 3: a warehouse at less than 25 degrees and fully automated, according to the concept of Industry 4.0 and the criteria of environmental sustainability and technological innovation: 

1. It will be connected to the other two plants by a bridge where, thanks to mechanized handling, frozen products will be transferred back and forth
2. This way, the production chain inside the plant is ongoing and totally mechanized with the consequent zeroing of the road transport.   

Therefore, to ensure automation in critical temperature conditions, Siemens has modified the Inverters (Sinamics G120M) for commissioning up to -25 degrees.
The aim of the adoption of automation is to eliminate the use of electric forklifts in the departments for the benefit of hygiene and efficiency. Last but not least, the compartment will be completed with a trigeneration plant. 

Orogel is a large agro-food group based in Cesena (FC)
