This is a carefully-controlled process, because if you heat it too high or too long, the juice cooks and loses its flavor. This is just one of many precautions that Langers takes to ensure that its products are percent safe. A few steps away, there is a laboratory, where samples are taken from every batch of juice and are run through an assembly line of impressive-sounding machines: a spectrophotometer to check the color , a turbidimeter to test the clarity , an acidity titration unit to measure pH , and others.
Technicians watch the juice samples swirl around beakers, and monitor the digital readouts to ensure that Langers is fully compliant with all government standards. Inside the bottling room, empty plastic bottles are taken off pallets, turned upside-down, and cleaned with either de-ionized air or de-ionized water. Then they are set down in a machine that queues them up, first 20 or so across, then wide, eventually single-file.
It looks like a crowd of concert-goers just as the gates open. The bottles whiz down a conveyor toward a huge German-built filling machine, where a computerized valve-and-probe system controls the juice levels with precision, not a fraction of an ounce over or under. There is also a Wonka-like machine that sucks bottle caps up into a pneumatic tube and affixes them to the bottles. Every bottle gets photographed by a computer, and if any caps are found to be askew, the machine pulls those bottles off the line.
Once filled and capped, the juices go through cooling tunnels for about 45 minutes, get labeled, packed into specially made eight-sided boxes, placed on pallets, wrapped in plastic by a robot, and then put onto waiting trucks for shipment to distributors and stores. The entire setup, all the belts and machines and computers, the giant gizmo, is run by a group of about 12 Langers employees on any given shift.
Bruce and David sit in a conference room in the office portion of their plant in the City of Industry, discussing their state-of-the-art machinery and reflecting on how far the company has come. In the late s, they were still just a local Los Angeles company and Henry Boney, the late patriarch of the family that would later found Sprouts, was one of their largest customers.
Today, between their juices, juice blends, no-sugar-added juices and Fragile Planet organic line, Langers is the anchor of the juice aisle in Sprouts stores. David says that eco-consciousness has also been a major initiative catapulting Langer to its current success. All of our corrugated suppliers are part of the Sustainable Forestry Initiative SFI , which means that for every tree that they cut down, they plant two others.
Langers also makes many of its own bottles in the Langers Plastics plant, using lightweight materials and BPA-free resin; prints on their boxes using soy inks; and co-generates some of their own electricity. Bruce proudly pulls a couple of the new Langers flavored green tea products from a nearby beverage cooler. Our dad is a very good taster. He can really discern different flavors very quickly. We like products that are good for you, and are high in antioxidants.
