The Haith Root Veg Peeler consists of a rotary drum with 15 rollers at 3m long, the patented roller design has a changeable carborundum section and two grades of bristle, the configuration of bristle and carborundum can be varied to suit different produce.

By breaking the tough outer surface of the vegetable on the carborundum, then removing the skin with the brush section, it peels and polishes the vegetable producing a smooth finish, this is unlike product that is peeled in conventional carborundum machines which leaves a very rough surface allowing bacteria to get in and causing break down of the vegetable.

In extensive testing we proved that by peeling on the new roller design, shelf life was improved, less rework was required and there was up to 20% reduction in yield loss, also with an output of 4tph it makes the Haith Root Veg Peeler well worth considering.

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.
