Simply Orange Juice

1. Oranges used in Simply Orange Juice are grown and harvested in the USA, Brazil, or Mexico.

2. Once the oranges are ripe they are picked and harvested by the farmers.

4. The oranges are removed from the trucks and are placed on conveyor belts so that they can be transported throughout the production facility.

5. The oranges are cleaned and sprayed with water to remove any dirt or pesticides on them.

6. The oranges that are ready for production are then automatically loaded on to orange peeling and extracting machines, where the oranges are peeled and pulp is removed and then squeezed to extract all the juices out of them.

7. The extracted orange juice is then transported to filtration machines with the use of pipes and pumps.

8. The juice is filtered to remove any solids that are inside the extracted juice.

9. After filtration the juice is degassed where oxygen in the juice is removed to prevent the juice from going bad fast. The juice also undergoes a process called degreasing where some of the greases and oils from the peels that may have contaminated the juice when is was extracted.

10. The juice is then pasteurized, which is where the juice is exposed to high temperature for short periods of time to kill any bacteria that may be in the juice.

11. After pasteurization, the juice is then bottled into the Simply Orange carafe bottles.

12. After bottling, labeling is put on the bottles and then the bottles of Simply Orange Juice are packaged and then sent to stores and retailers selling their products.
