Pet food
As preferred supplier of drying and cooling equipment to the the world’s leading petfood producers , we contribute to improved food safety, product quality, energy efficiency and maintenance costs.
Aqua feed
Moisture uniformity and energy efficiency are crucial factors in the production of aqua feed. Our counterflow dryers not only meet the most rigorous standards but also minimize operating costs.
Food
Our counterflow dryers and coolers are suitable for a wide range of products, including breakfast cereals, snack foods, coffee beans, cocoa, chocolate, bread crumbs, couscous, fruits, vegetables, nuts, and more.
Oilseeds
The drying and cooling of processed soya, rapeseed, and sunflower seed in the shape of expanded collets, meals, pellets, or cake demand continuous 24/7 operation, often with very high capacity. Our equipment is designed to meet these challenging requirements, ensuring that your production runs smoothly and efficiently.
Feed
In 1980, we designed the first of over 10,000 counterflow coolers for pellet mills, which is where our roots lie. Since then, we have expanded our range of coolers to include those suitable for extrudate, expandate, crumbles, mash and flakes.
