Meat processing companies the Australian Lamb Company and JBS Australia will buy the technology, supported by Meat and Livestock Australia and the Australian Meat Processor Corporation.

The project is expected to generate about $11 million in sales to Scott Technology and will be installed and operational before the end of the year.
