Dolav Filling Machine

The patented pendulum on the SwingFill Dolav Filler elevator gently layers your valuable crop into dolav boxes where the full electric drive system makes the machine productive and economic to run.

The innovative design of the Swing-Fill pivot means the machine is ultra stable in operation and the full width flights make it suitable for all types of root crop and the added option of web lowering heads makes it ideal for very gentle handling of larger sized produce such as swede and celeriac.

Advanced touch screen control enables chosen functions to be monitored at a glance and the autofill and weigh cell option ensures that bags and boxes can be filled to to any chosen height or weight.

Our story began when Geoff Haith, at just 18 years old, started carrying out repairs for local farmers. Through this work, he recognised a need for more efficient, mechanised solutions for washing and grading root vegetables. Combining his engineering expertise with a strong farming background, Geoff went on to design and manufacture innovative machinery for handling carrots, potatoes, and beetroot.

Until recently, the business was led by Geoff’s five sons and daughter, supported by a talented and forward-thinking management team dedicated to ensuring the company’s continued success. Today, Haith employs over 120 people at our UK factory and works with a network of agents worldwide, promoting the Haith brand globally and delivering high-quality installations and satisfied customers across the world.

Over the years, Haith has continued to grow in both size and capability, relocating three times to accommodate expanding operations. This growth has culminated in our current ultra-modern, wholly owned facility in South Yorkshire, featuring approximately 6,000 m² of production space on a six-acre site. The factory is equipped with the latest CNC laser, waterjet, and bending technology, enabling us to maintain the highest standards of precision and quality.

Haith has received numerous awards for machine design and innovation. We are especially proud to have been honoured twice with the UK’s highest business accolade, The Queen’s Award for Enterprise, both in the Innovation category. As the only company in our field to hold this prestigious award, our commitment to continuous innovation and development—helping to keep the UK vegetable industry at the forefront of technology—has been clearly recognised.
