There is nothing more refreshing than biting into a perfectly ripe, wonderfully sweet melon! It is our goal to ensure that this enjoyment is maximized, with each and every melon. Timco Worldwide Inc. has instituted an hourly quality assurance program which monitors the interior and exterior qualities of the melons we harvest. We cut thousands of melons every year to test our harvesting and packing quality. Here is what we are testing:
BRIX – Using a device called a refractometer, we are able to gauge the sugar content of our melons through the process of light refraction. We strive to provide melons with only the highest sugar levels to our retailers and, ultimately, to you!
PSI – Using a device called a penetrometer, we are able to gauge the internal pressure (crispness) of our melons and, in so doing, ensure that only those with perfectly firm flesh arrive at your door!
COLOR – The color of our melons has more importance than you might think, it is an indicator of high anti-oxidant levels from such sources as “lycopene” (watermelon) and “beta-carotene” (cantaloupe).
These details are sent by satellite to our headquarters in California and if we see an exception to our high quality assurance standards, we may halt harvesting immediately and resume only when the fruit is up to our satisfaction...and yours!
At Timco Worldwide Inc.., we believe that the most important feedback comes from our consumers. Your response helps us to efficiently improve our products to your satisfaction and that information is priceless! Please fill out the fields below and we will contact you shortly with our satisfaction guarantee details. As always, thank you from the Timco team.
