Packaged Food & Beverage
Blanching, peeling, cooking, coating, distillation, evaporation, pasteurisation, dehydration, extrusion, shrink wrapping - steam plays a part in a large number of food processes, from preparation and processing to preservation and packaging.
Few familiar food brands reach the consumer without steam playing some part in their manufacture.
Our engineers are uniquely able to combine our products with a working knowledge of production processes and industry standards to help food producers and OEMs in the following areas:
Higher production capacities
Process reliability and downtime
Improving product quality; reducing scrap
Reducing energy consumption
Energy recovery
Regulatory compliance and health and safety e.g. 3-A, EHEDG, FDA, EC hygiene
"Spirax Sarco's steam knowledge and products are invaluable, plus we know they work with other large manufacturers. We wouldn’t have anybody else."Tony Marsh, Engineering Manager at AB World Foods View Case Study
