Food Processing
Food processing generally includes the basic preparation of foods, the alteration of a food product into another form, and preservation and packaging.
With the ever growing population and evolution of society, the food processing industry has been challenged to meet increasing and varying demands of processed food products. New technologies and processing equipment have been developed that require materials that can handle food contact in a human health context and in accordance with government regulations.
We engineer flexible composites, apt for direct food contact, that will help you process your food product regardless of the chemistry, microbiology, and physical composition. Our products are apt for direct food contact, can withstand high food processing temperatures, will not stick and release the food product, and are chemically inert. Our products are used as conveyors in ovens, release press liners, cookware, etc processing anything and everything from dough to meat.
Flatbread – Pizza, Tortilla, Pita, Naan
A flatbread is made with water, flour, and salt and exists in various cultures throughout the world. The thickness of the bread can range from a few millimeters to a few centimeters. Multigrain variants of flatbread are gaining popularity owing to increased health awareness. Moreover, factors such as pH, water activity, and moisture content affect the quality of flatbread products. Whether processing tortilla, pizza, pita, naan or any flat bread, equipment manufacturers continue to design machinery to process the fast increasing flat bread market which is expected to double by 2026 worldwide.
