Ovo-Tech: Solutions for Egg Producers – How to Process Uncalibrated, Off-Standard, and Grade B and C Eggs to Reduce Disposal Costs
Learn how Ovo-Tech helps egg producers maximize profits from uncalibrated, off-standard, and Grade B and C eggs with the UDTJ-500 and M-500 devices. Earn more by eliminating disposal costs and increasing farm efficiency.
🐔 Processing Uncalibrated and Off-Standard Eggs = ZERO Disposal Costs
Poland is one of the leading egg producers in Europe, producing approximately 11–12 billion eggs annually. The highest density of farms is found in Greater Poland and Mazovia, which are the main production centers.
At Ovo-Tech, we closely monitor the market and understand that egg producers face rising costs, regulatory changes, and pricing pressures daily. One of the biggest challenges is uncalibrated eggs, meaning off-standard eggs, often classified as Grade B or Grade C. Although they are of high quality, they are traditionally disposed of, generating significant financial losses.
🥚 Egg calibration – why is it so important?
Calibration allows eggs to be sold in standard packaging and meet commercial requirements.
Class Name Single Egg Weight
Small, less than 53 g
M Medium, 53–63 g
L Large, 63–73 g
XL Extra Large, over 73 g
Eggs that do not meet these standards—i.e., uncalibrated, off-standard, Grade B, or Grade C—are unsuitable for traditional retail sale, even though they are considered a valuable raw material for processing.
🐣 Where do differences in egg size come from?
Age of the hen – young layers lay smaller eggs (S, M), older ones larger (L, XL).
Breed and weight of the bird – heavier breeds produce larger eggs.
Environmental conditions – nutrition, stress, temperature, and welfare affect egg weight.
Genetics – modern breeding lines are selected for the production of M–L eggs.
Even the best-run farms have a certain percentage of non-standard eggs, grades B/C, or simply uncalibrated, which become a problem… unless they are processed.
💸 Disposal costs of non-standard and grade B/C eggs
Example (100,000 eggs per day, 5% rejection = approx. 1,825,000 eggs per year):
Reject weight: ~109.5 tons
Rate per ton Annual cost
PLN 600/ton ~ PLN 65,700
PLN 1,100/ton ~ PLN 120,500
➡️ Even a small quantity of non-standard eggs can generate losses of tens or even over PLN 100,000 per year.
➡️ Thanks to Ovo-Tech systems, every grade B, grade C, or non-standard egg can become a raw material instead of waste.
⚙️ Ovo-Tech – Technology That Turns Oversized Eggs into Profit
Instead of paying for disposal, process uncalibrated and oversized eggs into liquid egg. Ovo-Tech provides solutions that create a complete, automated processing process.
🥚 UDTJ-500 – Automatic Egg Breaker (including B/C and uncalibrated)
Capacity: up to 120,000 eggs/hour
Automatic egg breaking: also oversized, B/C, and uncalibrated eggs
Liquid-shell separation
Filtration: 0.8 mm rotating sieve – pure liquid egg
Mass recovery: up to 98%
Construction made of AISI 304 steel
Requires only two operators
This device was designed for the efficient processing of oversized eggs.
🥄 M-500 – Pasteurization and Packaging of Egg Liquid
Ideal for Class B, Class C, and all non-calibrated/oversized eggs
Capacity: 500 l in a 6-8 hour cycle
Packaging: Bag-in-Box (1-20 l)
Storage: up to 30 days
Automatic Cleaning and Disinfection (CIP)
💡 Why the UDTJ-500 and M-500 are ideal for non-calibrated, Class B/C, and non-calibrated eggs
Egg producers benefit from:
no disposal costs,
maximum egg recovery,
time and labor savings,
high hygiene and safety standards,
the ability to sell egg liquid to the food industry.
This solution is particularly profitable for medium and large farms where non-calibrated or Class B/C eggs are produced in larger quantities.
🚀 Benefits of working with Ovo-Tech
💰 Increased profits – every egg, even oversized ones, becomes a valuable raw material
⏱️ Automation – less manual labor
♻️ Zero waste – no waste and full utilization of raw materials
🛡️ Hygiene and technology – stainless steel, advanced filtration, pasteurization
🌍 Experience – 20 years on the market, equipment in 120 countries
✅ Summary
A 5-6% reject rate in egg production translates into real financial losses.
Uncalibrated, oversized, grade B and C eggs don’t have to be disposed of – they can be recycled.
The UDTJ-500 + M-500 line allows you to transform any waste into a valuable product.
Instead of paying for disposal, you can start making money from it.
Don’t wait – see how quickly the investment in the Ovo-Tech line will pay off on your farm.
