3 types of Mush Comb headfilling machines. How to choose?

Mush Comb is Dutch innovative company with the mission to make sure that Mushroom Growers can fill their growing rooms & harvest the mushrooms efficiently and correctly with our high-quality Dutch machinery so they can increase yields and save on labour costs.

Let’s Grow Together is the vision of Mush Comb. We aspire to think, build, and grow alongside our customers, creating the best solutions together. What are the needs of our customers? That is the main question we ask ourselves.

Such approach became Mush Comb` business card in the mushroom world.

One of the key products of Mush Comb – which works on dozens of mushroom farms worldwide – is the head filling machine.

As lots of clients approach Mush Comb after seeing “that strong blue head filling machine of my neighbour” – many of them are not aware of the whole range of head filling machines the company offers. And actually, there are five of them.

So, we asked Mush Comb to tell us how to choose the suitable head filling machine for your farm?

However, let`s firstly focus on the advantages of all Mush Comb head filling machines.

  • As a grower, you aim to cultivate mushrooms in the most efficient way possible. That’s why we avoid unnecessary luxuries. The controls on our machinery are simple but efficient, ensuring both safety and the highest standards. This approach allows a broader range of individuals to operate the machinery, and maintenance costs are kept to a minimum, – tells Quin Mommen from Mush Comb.

The head filling machine is built in such a way that the operator always has a good view of what’s going on. And other advantage of this construction is that the machine is easy to clean because you can see everything. This will limit the chance of getting diseases.

Mush Comb head filling machine has wheels under the frame – so it moves better on the floor than you got used. Also, machine is supplied with emergency stop relays for the safety.

  • Our customers are located worldwide, this always involves transport. Normally a head-end filling machine needs special transport, but not the Mush Comb head-end filling machine. The machine completely fits in a standard transport. On this way thousands of euros are saved for the customer, – explains Quin Mommen from Mush Comb.

With Mush Comb you always have very good quality – for a competitive price.
