ROC Systems is a tobacco curing solution supplier that services customers in Zambia and Zimbabwe. The primary product that we manufacture is the Ecotunnel - a novel tobacco curing system. We make 4 different sizes, capable of handling 20, 25, 30, and 35 Ha crops in a single planting. These units can be used to cure up to 2 further crops in a season when planted at monthly intervals.
Our technical team has designed a unique heat exchanger which operates on a dry heat system, thereby eliminating the necessity for a boiler unit and the high maintenance costs. The heating system has also been designed to reduce operating costs to the customer by considerable reductions in coal usage, diesel for generator power, and electricity costs.
Our philosophy has been to improve every aspect of the tobacco curing process. In our flagship product (the Ecotunnel) this is reflected by increased operational efficiencies & significant cost reductions.
Our systems are designed to be highly versatile in application. Our industry reach has the potential to extend well beyond tobacco. For example, the ROC Systems heating system could be adapted for commercial use in dryers for grain, coffee, onions, and paprika.
Additionally, we manufacture roofing structures and supply roof sheets for sheds, as well as the manufacture of other steel structures as per our customer's requirements.
Our vision is to become the most sought-after tobacco curing equipment supplier in Southern Africa.
