Cashew Apple Juice
Itaueira started as supplier to the national big juice industries, commercializing frozen, nutless cashew apple for use mainly as raw material for juices and pulps.

Associated with regional factories, Itaueira Started in 2002, its production of integral cashew juice with high pulp content.

Gaia cashew apple, used as raw material in juice production, is hand-reaped, one by one, directly from the tree at the right ripening time and has its nut removed manually. It does not make contact with soil or any other impurities, having more sugar and less tannin than conventional cashew apple, providing a higher quality pulp, without need of using additives for its conservation.

Frozen cashew apple juice has no additives, and it is marketed in 190-kg drums of pulp.

Chilled cashew apple juice is marketed with 50% of the usual content of additives, in 22 to 30-ton tankers or in hexagonal cardboard bulk containers with 1000-liter capacity.

The frozen cashew apple in placed into plastic bags with 10 kg of frozen cashew apple, grouped 4 by 4 into raffia bags with brand GAIA, and palletized. Each pallet contains 1,080 kg of frozen cashew apple. Its commercialization is made in form of contract, before the beginning of the harvest.
