Hygienic pumps for milk, juice, syrup and thick products, with original spares and in-house repair.
About this range
A pump moves the product from one machine to the next and gives it the pressure it needs to get through heat exchangers, filters and fillers. On a hygienic line it must also be easy to clean and gentle on the product.
There are two big families. Centrifugal pumps throw the liquid outward with a spinning impeller and suit thin products such as milk, juice and water. Positive-displacement pumps (lobe, piston, screw, diaphragm) trap a fixed volume and push it forward, so they handle thick, sticky or shear-sensitive products.
What Process does: We supply the pump or its spares, fit and align it on your line, and overhaul worn pumps with new seals, bearings and wear parts.

Process valves and valve control for every duty on a dairy or beverage line, with repair and overhaul.
About this range
A valve opens, closes, diverts, regulates or protects the flow. On a dairy or beverage line it also has to keep the product apart from the cleaning liquid, hold pressure and be cleaned in place without being taken apart.
Most automated valves are a body, a seal and an actuator. The body and seal decide what the valve can do, and the actuator and control head decide how it is operated and how the control system knows its position.
What Process does: We supply valves and valve spares, fit them, and overhaul worn valves with new seals, stems and actuator parts.

Plate heat exchangers for heating, cooling and heat recovery, plus plates, gaskets and plate-pack servicing.
About this range
A plate heat exchanger moves heat from one liquid to another without letting them mix. A stack of thin, corrugated stainless plates forms narrow channels, and the two liquids flow through alternate channels, so a large surface fits in a small frame.
It is the heart of a pasteurizer: it heats the product, holds it, and then uses the hot product to pre-heat the cold incoming product (regeneration). A leak between the two sides can contaminate the product, so the plates and gaskets must be inspected and tested regularly.
What Process does: We open, clean, inspect and re-gasket plate heat exchangers on site, supply plates, gaskets and complete plate packs, and pressure-test the unit before it goes back on line.

Tubular and other heat exchangers for products with particles, fibre or high viscosity.
About this range
Some products carry fruit pieces, fibre or are too thick to flow through the narrow channels of a plate heat exchanger. Tubular and scraped-surface exchangers have wide, open passages, so these products can be heated and cooled without blocking.
They also include the methods we use to check exchangers in service: leak and integrity testing, and thermographic surveys that show where heat is lost or a unit is fouled.
What Process does: We supply and service tubular exchangers, and our engineers carry out leak and integrity tests and thermographic surveys on site.

Centrifugal separators and clarifiers for milk and beverages, with spare parts and on-site servicing.
About this range
A separator spins the liquid inside a bowl at very high speed. Heavier parts, such as solids or water, move to the outside, and lighter parts, such as cream, move to the middle. Inside the bowl is a stack of thin conical discs that shortens the distance each particle has to travel.
A separator that skims cream from milk is called a separator. One that only removes solids is a clarifier. Both run at high speed and are balanced to a very tight tolerance, so service and spare parts must be handled with care.
What Process does: We supply separator spares matched to your serial number and our engineers dismantle, clean, inspect and re-assemble separators on site.

High-pressure homogenizers for stable milk, yoghurt, juice and sauces, with spares and servicing.
About this range
A homogenizer is a high-pressure pump with a very narrow gap at its outlet. The product is forced through the gap at high speed, which breaks fat globules or particles into tiny droplets of an even size. The result is a smoother, more stable product that does not separate or form a cream layer on top.
Because it works at high pressure with moving pistons, a homogenizer has parts that wear quickly, especially the valve, seat and seals. Keeping them in good condition is what keeps the product quality steady.
What Process does: We supply homogenizer spares and gauges, and our engineers service homogenizers on site, including valves, seats, plungers and seals.

Complete heat-treatment and process modules: balance tanks, plate heat exchangers, holding tubes and CIP.
About this range
A process module puts the equipment for one job together on one skid or frame: a balance tank, a pump, a plate heat exchanger, a holding tube, valves, instruments and a control panel. A pasteurizer is the best-known example. It heats the product to a set temperature, holds it long enough to be safe and cools it again.
Our engineers design, supply, install and commission modules, and also upgrade existing lines to increase capacity, cut energy and improve control.
What Process does: We carry out process engineering projects and upgrades from the layout drawings to commissioning, and we service the equipment afterwards.

Mixing, blending and powder-dosing equipment for ingredients, sugar and stabilizers.
About this range
Mixing and blending equipment joins ingredients into one smooth, even product. Powders such as sugar, milk powder and stabilizers must be wetted without forming lumps. Liquids must be combined in the right ratio. Tanks must be stirred without damaging the product.
The right machine depends on what is being mixed: a powder into a liquid, two liquids in a pipe, or a whole tank that needs to stay uniform. Some work inline in the pipe, others work inside the tank.
What Process does: We supply mixers, blenders and their spares, and help you pick the right machine for your recipe.

Storage, balance and process tanks, and the fittings that go on them.
About this range
Tanks store and hold product at each stage of the plant: raw milk silos, balance tanks, mixing tanks and finished-product tanks. Each tank has fittings that decide how it is used: an agitator, a manway for access, legs, covers, sight glasses and vents.
Many of the parts wear or age in service. Gaskets harden, covers crack and welds can develop faults. We supply these parts and test tank walls and welds without cutting them.
What Process does: We supply tank fittings and spares and test tank integrity on site.

Cleaning devices that let you clean tanks in place with less water, time and chemicals.
About this range
Tank cleaning devices send cleaning liquid to every part of the inside of a tank, without anyone climbing in. A good device wets the entire surface, so the cleaning solution can do its work, and then rinses clean.
The three main kinds are the static spray ball, the rotary spray head and the rotary jet head. They differ in how much liquid they need and how much force they use on the tank wall.
What Process does: We supply tank cleaning devices and their spares, and help choose the right one for your tank.

Gauges, sensors and recorders for temperature, pressure and flow, with calibration.
About this range
Instruments tell operators and the control system what is happening in the process: how hot the product is, how much pressure is in the line and how much is flowing. On a hygienic line they must be designed so they do not trap product and can be cleaned with the line.
A reading is only useful if it is correct. Gauges and sensors drift with time, so they are checked against a reference standard (calibration) and the result is recorded for audits.
What Process does: We supply gauges, thermometers, recorders and flow meters, and calibrate instruments on site.

Control heads, positioners, PLC, HMI and SCADA for process lines and valve clusters.
About this range
Automation lets a line run the same way every time: valves open in the right order, temperatures are held, and the operator sees what is happening on a screen. A PLC is the controller that runs the program, an HMI is the operator's screen, and SCADA collects data from the whole plant.
At the valve, control heads and positioners connect the pneumatic valve to the control system, so the PLC knows the valve's position and can move it.
What Process does: We supply control heads and positioners, and our engineers program PLCs, design panels and optimise energy use.

Protect pumps, valves and fillers from particles with inline strainers, filters and magnetic traps.
About this range
A strainer catches particles in the product or in the utilities before they reach a pump, a valve, a heat exchanger or a filler. It is a housing in the pipe with a screen that lets the liquid through and holds the particles back.
The type depends on the size of particle, how much there is, and how easily the screen can be cleaned. A magnetic trap is a special case: it uses magnets to catch iron particles that a screen would miss.
What Process does: We supply strainers, filters, housings and spare elements, and size them for your line.

Sanitary hoses, tube fittings, clamps and gaskets in stock for fast changeovers.
About this range
Hoses, tube fittings, clamps and gaskets connect the machines on a hygienic line. They must be smooth inside, tight under pressure, and easy to take apart and clean. Rubber parts and gaskets wear out first, so they should always be held in stock.
Fittings come in several standards (tri-clamp, DIN, SMS, IDF). The right part is the one that matches the thread or clamp already on your equipment.
What Process does: We keep common hoses, fittings and gasket sizes in stock for fast changeovers, and make hose assemblies to length.

Systems that empty totes and drums completely, including thick and viscous products.
About this range
Thick products such as pastes, fruit preparations, creams and sauces stick to the walls and bottoms of drums and totes. Unloading systems are made to get every kilogram out and into the process, so less product is wasted.
Systems either push the product out with a plate (follower plate), tilt the container, or use a pump designed for thick material.
What Process does: We supply unloading systems and the pumps that go with them, and help set them up on your line.

Everything for daily hygiene in the plant, from wash-down stations to colour-coded tools.
About this range
Cleaning the plant is a daily job, and the right tools make it faster and safer for the product. Hoses, spray guns and wash stations clean surfaces. Colour-coded tools stop contamination from moving between zones. Stainless pails and sinks are easy to clean and do not shed chips.
Food-grade lubricants keep moving parts running without risking the product if a small amount touches it.
What Process does: We supply the tools, stations and lubricants for plant hygiene, and help set up colour-coding by zone.

Change parts and spares for filling and packaging machines, and packaging line projects.
About this range
Filling and packaging machines have many parts that are changed when the product or pack size changes, and many that wear with use. Having the right change parts and spares on hand means fast changeovers and fewer stops.
We also support packaging line projects and ice cream and dessert equipment, which use their own filling and freezing machines.

The standard pump for milk, juice, beverages and water on a hygienic line.
A motor spins an impeller inside a casing. The liquid enters at the centre, is thrown outward and leaves at higher pressure. Polished stainless steel and a drainable casing make the pump easy to clean in place.
Raw milk intake, pasteurizer feed, juice transfer, CIP supply and return, and general product transfer.
Mechanical seals, O-rings, impellers, back plates and shaft sleeves, with bearing and motor replacement.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
A centrifugal pump with a finer surface finish and full drainability for high-purity products.
It works like a hygienic centrifugal pump, but the wetted parts are polished to a finer finish and the design leaves no pockets where product or cleaning liquid can stay. This lowers the risk of contamination between batches.
Infant formula, dairy ingredients, protein products, biotech and personal-care lines where purity matters most.
Ultra-pure seals, gaskets and impellers matched to the pump model, with inspection of the surface finish after service.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
A centrifugal pump with several impellers in series to reach higher pressure.
The liquid passes from one impeller to the next, and each stage adds pressure. The result is a pump that delivers high pressure at a steady flow without needing a positive-displacement design.
Feeding membrane filtration, spray dryers and high-pressure cleaning, and boosting pressure over long or high lines.
Stage impellers, diffusers, shaft seals, wear rings and bearings, plus re-assembly and alignment.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Pumps sized for the circulation loops of membrane filtration plants.
In ultrafiltration, nanofiltration and reverse osmosis the product is circulated across membranes at high flow and a modest pressure rise. Filtration pumps are selected for that steady, high-flow duty and for a seal that suits long run times.
Milk and whey concentration, juice clarification, protein standardisation and water treatment.
Seals, impellers and bearings for continuous duty, and overhaul during planned membrane-plant shutdowns.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Self-priming pumps that handle liquid mixed with air or gas.
An impeller spins off-centre in a casing that holds a ring of liquid. The space between the blades grows and shrinks as it turns, which draws in air or gas and pushes it out. The pump can start dry and does not choke on air.
CIP return and tank emptying, where air is drawn in at the end of the cycle, and vacuum duty such as de-aeration.
Rotors, port plates, shaft seals and bearings, with checks of the running clearances.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Robust centrifugal pumps for utilities and non-product duties.
They use the same centrifugal principle as hygienic pumps but are built for strength and low cost, not for easy cleaning. They are not used where the liquid touches the food product.
Cooling and chilled water, hot water, boiler feed, effluent and chemical dosing.
Seals, impellers, bearings and couplings, and swap-in replacements for worn units.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Gentle positive-displacement pumps for thick and shear-sensitive products.
Two lobed rotors turn in opposite directions inside a casing without touching each other. Each turn carries a fixed volume of product from the inlet to the outlet. Flow is proportional to speed, and the pump can run in either direction.
Yoghurt, cream, cheese curd, fruit preparations, sauces and desserts, and any product that must not be sheared.
Rotors, rotor-case wear plates, shaft seals, timing gears and gearbox oil, with clearance checks after a rebuild.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Positive-displacement pumps with tight clearances for thick products and higher pressure.
Two rotors with piston-shaped sections turn in a close-fitting casing. The tight clearances and long sealing paths let the pump hold pressure and meter accurately even when the product is very thick.
Viscous creams, cheese and curd products, pastes, fillings and dosing duties.
Rotors, seals, bearings and timing gears, with clearance measurement and reset.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Smooth, low-pulsation pumps for viscous products and products carrying air.
Two intermeshing screws carry the product along their length in sealed chambers, so the flow is steady with little pulsation. The pump can lift product from below and tolerates air better than most positive-displacement pumps.
Thick products with pieces, tank emptying, CIP return and viscous transfer where a steady flow is needed.
Screws, liners, shaft seals and gears, and a rebuild to the original clearances.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Compressed-air pumps for transfer, drum emptying and rough duties.
Compressed air pushes two flexible diaphragms back and forth. While one pushes product out, the other draws product in. The pump needs no electric motor, can run dry and can be turned down by throttling the air.
Emptying drums and totes, moving products with soft solids, transferring flavours and cleaning chemicals, and mobile or temporary duty.
Diaphragms, balls, seats, air-valve kits and O-rings, usually fitted in minutes.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Portable pumps that go straight into a drum, barrel or IBC.
A pump tube is lowered into the container and a motor on top drives a rotor or impeller at the bottom. The product is lifted out through the tube, so the container does not have to be tipped or opened wide.
Flavours, colours, additives, syrups and cleaning chemicals delivered in drums or totes.
Tubes, rotors, seals and motors, with cleaning and storage advice.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
A pump, motor and hoses on one mobile stainless frame.
The pump is mounted on a wheeled frame with its motor and controls so one unit can serve many tanks and lines. The operator connects hoses at each end and moves it when the job is done.
Tank-to-tank transfer, small batches, CIP and rinsing, and standby duty when a fixed pump is out for service.
Complete carts built or supplied, with spare seals and hoses kept in stock.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
The electric motors and variable-frequency drives that power the pumps.
The motor turns the pump. A variable-frequency drive (VFD) changes the motor speed, so the flow can be set from the control room, starts are soft, and energy is saved when less flow is needed.
Every pump on the line. VFDs are especially useful on lobe pumps and on circulation loops.
Motors, VFDs, terminal boxes and cables, with fitting, setup and testing by our engineers.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Overhaul of worn pumps back to working order.
An engineer strips the pump, measures the wear on the shaft, casing, rotors and bearings, and replaces what has gone out of tolerance. The pump is then re-assembled, aligned and tested. Badly worn parts are rebuilt or replaced.
Pumps that leak, vibrate, lose capacity or run hot, and pumps due for planned maintenance.
Complete seal and bearing kits, wear parts and replacement units, with a written report after the overhaul.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Simple on/off valves with a large opening and very little resistance to flow.
A flat disc sits in the pipe on a shaft. A quarter turn lines it up with the flow (open) or across the flow (closed), where it presses on a rubber seal. Because the disc is small, flow resistance is low.
Milk, juice, beverages, water and CIP liquids, and products with small soft solids, in pipe sizes up to large diameters.
Disc seals, shaft seals, discs, handles and actuators, fitted on site.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Valves that let liquid pass one way and stop it from flowing back.
A spring-loaded disc or poppet lifts off its seat when the flow pushes it. When the flow stops or reverses, the spring and the back pressure close it again. No actuator or air supply is needed.
Pump discharge lines, CIP supply lines, and places where cleaning liquid must never run back into product.
Seats, springs, discs and O-rings, with a check of the opening pressure after service.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Valves that keep two different liquids apart even while one of them is being cleaned.
Two seals sit one behind the other with a leakage chamber between them that is open to the outside. If one seal leaks, the liquid goes to drain and cannot reach the other side. Each seat can be lifted separately for cleaning while the other line stays in production.
Valve matrices and manifolds where product, CIP and water pipes meet, and tank outlets that serve several lines.
Seat seals, stem seals, O-rings and actuator kits, plus a leak test after service.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Valves with one seal, used to start, stop or divert product flow.
A plug on a stem presses on a single seat to close the line. The valve is opened and closed by an air-driven actuator, and a spring returns it to the safe position if the air fails. Versions are available for shut-off, flow diversion and pressure relief.
Line isolation, product diversion to tanks, and places where a small mixing risk is acceptable.
Plug and seat seals, stems and actuator kits, with the control head recalibrated.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Robust pneumatic valves for steam, water, air and clean liquids.
The seat sits at an angle in the body and a piston actuator pushes the plug down on it. The design handles high temperature and is used on utility services as well as on some process lines.
Steam, hot water, cooling water, compressed air and clean-liquid dosing.
Seat and stem seals, plugs, actuator springs and complete replacement valves.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Valves with a plug that moves straight onto the seat, used for shut-off and gentle throttling.
A stem moves the plug in a straight line towards the seat. The straight stroke gives good control of how far the valve opens, so it can shut off the line or restrict the flow.
Utility services, dosing, and lines that need both isolation and a partly open setting.
Plugs, seats, stem seals and actuators.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Valves that adjust flow, pressure or temperature to a set value.
A positioner moves the stem to the exact opening the controller asks for. The valve opening changes the flow and so the pressure or temperature further down the line, and the controller keeps it on target.
Pressure control on homogenizer feed, steam to heat exchangers, flow and ratio control in blending, and filling.
Plugs, seats, diaphragms and positioners, with calibration against your signal.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Quarter-turn valves with a full bore that let thick or lumpy product pass freely.
A ball with a hole through it sits between two seats. Turning it a quarter turn lines the hole up with the pipe (open) or turns it away (closed). In sanitary versions the seats are shaped so there are no crevices to trap product.
Viscous products, products with solids, tank outlets, and manual isolation points.
Seats, ball seals, stem seals and handles, with the ball checked for scratches.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Manual valves for on/off and for switching a flow between pipes.
A tapered or cylindrical plug with a port through it sits in the body. A quarter turn of the handle opens, closes or switches the flow. Two-way and three-way versions are common.
Manual changeover points, sampling points and small lines.
Plugs, seals and handles.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Valves with a flexible diaphragm that seals the product away from the mechanism.
A flexible diaphragm is pressed down onto a weir or seat by a stem. The product touches only the body and the diaphragm, never the moving parts, and there are no pockets where it can collect.
Aseptic and ultra-pure lines, sampling, sterile ingredient addition and fruit preparations.
Diaphragms are wear parts, replaced at set intervals together with the stem seals and seat checks.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Valves with a sliding gate that gives a straight, full-bore passage.
A flat gate slides across the pipe and presses on its seat. When open, the gate is clear of the flow, so there is almost no pressure loss and solids pass easily. It opens and closes slowly and is not made for throttling.
Thick or lumpy products and lines that are rarely operated.
Gate seals, stem packing and seats.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Valves with a sliding shutter, for large lines and very thick products.
A flat shutter moves across the pipe at right angles to the flow, and presses on a seal. The passage is wide open, so pressure loss is very low and product pieces are not crushed.
Fruit and vegetable preparations, thick pastes, large pipes and powder or granule lines.
Shutter seals, guide parts and actuator kits.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Valves that take a clean, representative sample without contaminating the line.
A small valve on the pipe lets a short flow of product into a sample container. Aseptic versions can be steam-sterilised before and after sampling, so the sample reflects the product and the line stays clean.
Quality control at intake, after pasteurization, before filling and in fermentation.
Seats, seals and diaphragms, and sterilisation checks.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Valves that protect tanks and pipes from vacuum and from over-pressure.
A vacuum breaker lets air in when the pressure inside a tank falls below outside pressure, so the tank does not collapse when it empties or cools. A pressure-relief valve opens at its set pressure and lets the excess escape.
Storage and process tanks, heat exchangers, and lines that can be isolated while hot.
Springs, seats and seals, with a set-pressure check after service.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Valves that vent trapped air and protect equipment from unsafe pressure.
An air-relief valve lets air out of the top of a pipe or pump casing so the line fills completely. A safety valve is the last line of defence and opens at a set pressure to stop the equipment from being over-pressured.
High points in pipes, pumps, heat exchangers and pressure vessels.
Springs, seats and seals, with testing and re-certification where the law asks for it.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Valves that show any seal leakage outside the pipe before the product is affected.
The valve has a leakage chamber between its seals that opens to the outside. If a seal begins to leak, the liquid appears at the leak port where an operator or a sensor can see it, long before any mixing.
Lines that carry both product and cleaning liquid, and food-safety critical points.
Seal kits and leak-port parts, with a leak test after fitting.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Overhaul and rebuild of valves and valve actuators.
Our engineer removes the valve, strips it, replaces the seals and worn parts, checks the stem, seat and actuator, and tests it for leaks and for smooth stroke. A valve cluster can be overhauled one valve at a time during a shutdown.
Valves that leak, stick, are slow, or are due for planned maintenance.
Seal kits, actuator springs, stems and control heads, with a short report after the overhaul.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
The standard heat exchanger of a pasteurizer, built from plates and gaskets in a frame.
Corrugated plates with gaskets are clamped between two end plates. The corrugations make the liquid turbulent, so heat transfers efficiently. The frame can be opened for cleaning and inspection, and plates can be added or removed to change the duty.

Plates, gaskets, frames and bolts, and swap-in replacement.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Plates welded in pairs, so one side is sealed without gaskets.
Two plates are welded into a cassette that closes one channel. The other channel keeps a gasket. The welded side can carry aggressive or high-pressure liquids that would attack a gasket, and the unit can still be opened for cleaning on the gasketed side.
Refrigerant and ammonia duties, aggressive chemicals, and steam or hot-oil circuits.
Cassettes, gaskets and bolts, with leak testing after service.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Gasket-free plate exchangers for high temperature, pressure and harsh liquids.

Advice on chemical cleaning, pressure testing and replacement units.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Small, sealed plate exchangers with no gaskets or frame.
The plates are joined by a brazing metal or by fusing the metal itself, which makes a compact block that holds high pressure. It is not opened for cleaning, so it suits clean liquids and refrigerants.

Special high-pressure heat transfer and heat recovery on utility systems.
Supplied on request through our network of manufacturers.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Plate exchangers with wide channels that let fibre and particles pass.
The plates are shaped so that the gap is wider and has few contact points, so fibres, pulp and small particles go through without blocking. The surface is smaller for the same size, but the unit stays clean longer.

Wide-gap plates, gaskets and complete packs.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Plate exchangers set up to condense vapour or to evaporate a liquid.
In a condenser, vapour on one side gives up heat and turns into liquid. In an evaporator, a liquid on one side takes up heat and turns into vapour. The plates and port layout are chosen for the large change in volume.

Coils, seals and complete replacement units.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Tests that show whether the two sides of an exchanger are tight.
Our engineers test plate and tubular exchangers for cross-leakage using pressure tests and, on plates, visual and dye checks. Leaks can be tiny, so testing is the only reliable way to be sure product and heating medium are not mixing.
After re-gasketing, at planned maintenance, and whenever product quality or the heating medium suggests a leak.
On-site leak and integrity tests with a written result.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Infrared imaging that shows hot and cold spots on exchangers, pipes and tanks.
A thermal camera shows surface temperatures without contact. Cold plates can mean blocked channels or fouling, while hot spots on insulation show where energy is lost. The survey ends with a short report with the images and recommended actions.

Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
High-pressure machines that make the fat or particles in a product small and even.
A multi-piston pump drives the product at high pressure through a narrow gap in the homogenizing valve. The sudden change of speed and pressure breaks up the droplets. In a two-stage machine, a second valve breaks up clusters formed by the first.
Milk, cream, yoghurt and ice-cream mix, plant-based drinks, juice, sauces and emulsions.
Complete machines and refurbished units, with installation and commissioning.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
The parts of a homogenizer that wear, supplied by model.
The plungers, packing, valve seats and valves face high pressure and fast flow, so they wear first. Replacing them on time keeps the pressure steady and the product consistent.
Scheduled maintenance and breakdown repairs on milk, juice and food homogenizers.
Plungers, packing and seals, valves and seats, gap parts, gaskets and gauges.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Gauges that show the pressure at each homogenizing stage.
A sanitary gauge reads the pressure at the valve outlet. It is filled with liquid so the needle stays steady in spite of the pulsing flow. The reading tells the operator whether the machine is running at the recipe pressure.
First- and second-stage pressure on every homogenizer.
Gauges, diaphragm seals and calibration.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Valve, plunger and seal service done in your plant.

Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Modules that heat milk, juice and other products to destroy harmful bacteria.
The cold product is pre-heated by the hot product leaving the unit (regeneration), then heated to the pasteurization temperature by hot water. It passes through a holding tube for the required time and is cooled. A flow-diversion valve sends product back if the temperature falls too low. For milk the common HTST setting is 72 °C for 15 seconds.
Milk, cream, juice, ice-cream mix, yoghurt mix and beverages.
Plates, gaskets, valves, instruments and complete modules, with commissioning.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Pasteurizing, UHT and other heat-treatment systems built as complete modules.
A heat-treatment module combines the heat exchangers, holding section, pumps and controls needed for one treatment. UHT systems heat the product to about 135 to 150 °C for a few seconds. The module is built to give the same treatment every time.
Long-life milk, juice, desserts, sauces and ready-to-drink beverages.

Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Tanks that feed a line at a steady head and mix recipes.
A balance tank holds a small volume of product just before the pump. A float or level sensor keeps the level constant, so the pump always has liquid to draw and the line is not disturbed by surges. Mixing tanks add an agitator to blend ingredients.
Pasteurizer feed, recipe blending and buffering between two processes.
Tanks, level controls, valves and agitators.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
The tube that keeps product at temperature for the required time, and the tests that prove it.
The length and diameter of the tube, together with the flow rate, set how long the product stays at temperature. We check this by calculation and, where required, by a test that measures the actual holding time. The result shows that every particle of product gets the full treatment.
Every pasteurizer and UHT plant, and whenever a flow or pump is changed.

Complete project delivery, with spares and service afterwards.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Changes that raise capacity, cut energy and improve control on a line you already own.
Typical changes are a new plate pack with higher regeneration, a new control system, new valves and a CIP upgrade. The aim is a line that runs more steadily, uses less energy and is easier to maintain.
Older pasteurizers and CIP systems, and lines that must handle more volume or a new product.

Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Equipment that adds powders and ingredients to a liquid without lumps.
A pump circulates liquid through a mixing head. The powder is drawn in from a bag or hopper under vacuum and mixed into the stream, so each grain is wetted separately. This avoids the lumps that form when powder is poured on top of a liquid.
Sugar, milk powder, stabilizers, proteins and flavour premixes added to milk, juice and beverages.
Mixing heads, seals, valves and hoppers.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
A tank-based system that combines an agitator with powder wetting.
Liquid circulates from the tank through a powder-wetting device and returns to the tank, while an agitator keeps the tank moving. This combination dissolves large batches quickly and keeps the mixture even.
Large-batch recipe preparation in dairy, beverage and ingredient plants.
Wetting devices, agitator parts and seals.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Machines that blend two or more streams or add an ingredient in a pipe.
Streams meet in the pipe and pass through a mixing element. A static mixer has no moving parts, and a dynamic mixer has a rotor. A flow meter and control valve on each stream keep the ratio exact.
Water and concentrate for juice, dosing flavours, standardising fat or sugar content in a continuous line.
Mixing elements, meters, control valves and seals.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Mixers that apply strong shear to disperse powders and make fine emulsions.
A spinning rotor sits very close to a fixed stator. Product is forced through the gap and exposed to strong shear. Lumps are broken up, powders dissolve faster and oil and water form a fine emulsion.
Dissolving stabilizers and proteins, making emulsions, sauces and creams.
Rotors, stators, seals and bearings.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Tank mixers that use a rotating jet of the product itself, with no shaft.
A pump sends liquid through a nozzle head inside the tank. The jets rotate slowly around the tank and sweep the whole volume, so the contents stay uniform. The same head helps clean the tank walls.
Storage and process tanks of milk, juice and ingredients.
Jet heads, bearings and seals.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Nozzles in a tank that mix by drawing in the surrounding liquid.
A pump forces liquid through a nozzle. The fast jet pulls in and moves more liquid from around it, and the combined stream mixes the tank. There are no moving parts inside the tank.
Tank mixing, keeping solids suspended and quickly blending small additions.
Nozzles and fittings.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Mixers with a shaft and impeller driven by a motor on the tank.
A motor and gearbox turn a shaft with an impeller inside the tank. The impeller type and speed decide whether it blends quickly, keeps solids suspended or stirs gently. The shaft is sealed with a hygienic mechanical seal.

Impellers, shafts, seals and gearboxes.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Mixers mounted inside or on the tank, for special positions and small batches.
These include bottom-mounted magnetic mixers, clamp-on portable mixers and side-entry units. The mixing head works inside the product and the drive is outside or magnetically coupled, so there is no shaft seal that can leak.
Small tanks, laboratory and pilot plants, and aseptic tanks.
Mixing heads, magnets and drives.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.

Storage, ageing and mixing tanks.
Impellers, seals, shafts and gearboxes.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Seals that make the tank door tight.
The gasket sits between the door and the tank frame. A hinge or clamps press the door against it, and the soft material fills small gaps. Over time the rubber hardens, flattens or cracks, and the tank starts to leak.

Tank levels, product flow on pipes and CIP checks.
Glasses, gaskets and lights.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Devices that control the gas pressure inside a tank.
A vent lets air in or out as the liquid level changes, so the tank does not build up pressure or collapse. A regulator holds a set gas pressure, for example nitrogen over the product, to protect it from air.
Storage tanks, tanks under gas blanket and tanks that are cleaned with hot liquid.
Regulators, vents and filters.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.

Washing stations, nozzles and spares.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Tests that find cracks and thin walls without damaging the tank.
Non-destructive testing (NDT) checks a tank without cutting it. Ultrasonic testing measures the wall thickness, and dye penetrant shows cracks and pinholes at welds. Jacketed tanks can be pressure-tested to find leaks between the jacket and product.
Tanks that are old, have been repaired, or are part of a safety or quality programme.
On-site tests by our engineers with a written report.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
A spinning head that sprays the whole inner surface in a pattern.
The cleaning liquid flowing through the head turns it, so the spray covers the inner surface of the tank in a repeating pattern. It uses less liquid than a static ball because the spray is stronger and more focused.
Small to medium tanks with light to medium soil.
Heads, bearings and seals.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Heads that sweep powerful jets over the tank walls.
Two or more nozzles produce solid jets and are driven slowly round the tank on two axes. The jets hit the walls with force and remove heavy soil. A full cleaning cycle covers the whole inner surface.
Large tanks and heavy soil.
Heads, gears and seals.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
A perforated ball that sprays liquid in all directions.
Cleaning liquid enters the ball and leaves through holes in many directions. The liquid runs down the wall as a film and does the cleaning. The ball has no moving parts, so it is simple, but it needs more liquid than a rotating head.
Small tanks and vessels with light soil.
Spray balls and fixings.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
The pipe that carries cleaning liquid to the head inside the tank.
A stainless tube comes through the tank top or side and holds the cleaning device at the right height. It must be the right length, easy to drain and clean, and fixed firmly.
Any tank with a cleaning device.
Tubes cut to length with fittings.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Shields that spread incoming liquid over the tank wall.
A deflector sits inside the tank under an inlet. It turns the liquid flow sideways so it runs down the wall instead of falling in a jet. This gives a gentler fill with less foam and splashing, and helps wet the walls during cleaning.
Tank inlets for milk, juice and cleaning liquid.
Deflectors and fixings.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Pressure gauges with a diaphragm that keeps product out of the gauge.
A thin stainless diaphragm sits at the connection and is in contact with the product. It passes the pressure to the gauge through a filling liquid. Nothing from the product enters the gauge, and there are no pockets to clean.
Pumps, heat exchangers, homogenizers and filling lines.
Gauges, diaphragm seals, gaskets and calibration.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Thermometers that show product temperature on the pipe or tank.
A bi-metal thermometer uses two metals that expand differently, so a pointer moves as the temperature changes. It needs no power. A digital thermometer uses an electronic sensor and shows the value on a display, and often sends a signal as well.
Pasteurizer outlet, tank temperature, CIP return and cold-store lines.
Thermometers, sensors, thermowells and calibration.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Fine-finish gauges for the strictest hygienic duties.

Gauges, seals and calibration.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
High-pressure gauges for homogenizer stages.
The homogenizer pushes product through a gap at high pressure, and the flow pulses with every piston stroke. A homogenizer gauge is liquid-filled and built for high range and pulsation, so the needle stays steady and the reading is reliable.
First and second stage of every homogenizer.
Gauges, seals and calibration.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Recorders that keep a record of temperature or pressure on a chart.
A pen draws a line on a rotating paper chart as the temperature or pressure changes. The chart is the record that proves, for example, that the milk was held at pasteurization temperature. Pens, paper and batteries need regular replacement.
Pasteurizer temperature records, CIP records and audit evidence.
Chart paper, pens and spares for common recorders.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Meters that measure flow without any moving parts.
A magnetic flow meter makes a magnetic field across the pipe. A conductive liquid moving through it produces a small voltage proportional to its speed. An ultrasonic meter sends sound pulses along the pipe and measures the time they take. Neither has parts that block the flow.

Units on top of a valve that send its position to the PLC and take commands from it.
The control head holds a solenoid valve that sends air to the actuator, and sensors that detect the valve position. The PLC sends a command, the head moves the valve and then reports back when it has reached the end of travel.
Every automated valve in a dairy, beverage or food line.
Control heads, sensors, solenoids and set-up.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Devices that move a control valve to the exact opening the controller asks for.
The positioner receives a signal (such as 4 to 20 mA) from the controller and sets the air pressure on the actuator until the valve stem is at the requested position. It then keeps it there, even if the pressure in the pipe changes.
Regulating and control valves for flow, pressure and temperature loops.
Positioners, tubing and calibration.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Devices that show and report whether a valve is open, closed or lifted.
Proximity switches detect the position of the valve stem, and lights show it on the valve. The switches send the same information to the PLC, so the control system can check that a valve did what it was asked.
Valves without a full control head and manual valves in a monitored line.
Indication units, sensors and cables.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
The controllers, screens and supervisory systems that run the plant.
The PLC runs the control program and reads and drives the field devices. The HMI is the operator screen next to the machine. SCADA is the supervisory layer that collects data from the whole plant, raises alarms, shows trends and keeps reports.
New lines, upgrades of old control systems and fault-finding on running plants.
Programming, commissioning, fault-finding and support on these platforms.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Design, building and installation of electrical control panels.
We design the panel from the process requirements, choose the components, build and wire it, test it and install it on site. Drawings and a test record are handed over so the panel can be maintained.
New machines and modules, and replacement of old or damaged panels.
Panel design, build, installation and documentation.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Motor repair and neat, safe cabling.
Motors are checked, repaired and fitted with new bearings and seals. Cables are laid on trays, with glands, labels and routes that protect them from water, heat and damage. A tidy installation is easier and faster to troubleshoot.
Plants with many motors, washdown areas and long cable runs.
Motor service, cables, trays and glands.

Finding and cutting wasted energy in the process.
We measure what the plant uses and where, then look for savings: speed drives on pumps, better heat recovery, tighter CIP cycles, compressed-air leaks and steam losses. Changes are made in stages, and the saving is measured afterwards.
Plants with rising energy costs or targets to reduce consumption.
Surveys, recommendations and the work to carry them out.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Screens in the pipe that catch particles before the next machine.
The product flows through a perforated or mesh element in a housing. Particles larger than the holes stay in the element. The element is removed and cleaned at set intervals, or the strainer is flushed during cleaning.
Before pumps, valves, heat exchangers and fillers.
Elements, gaskets and housings.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Strainers with slot-shaped openings for fibres and pulp.
The element has narrow slots instead of round holes. Round particles stop at the slot edge, while fibres and soft pulp can slide past without blocking the screen as easily as a mesh would.
Juice, fruit preparations and liquids with fibres.
Slotted elements and gaskets.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Large-opening strainers that catch big pieces.
The screen has large holes and stops big objects such as peel, seeds and packaging debris. It protects the pump from damage and is a first line of defence before finer screens.
Tank outlets, intakes and unloading lines.
Screens and gaskets.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Strainers with a removable basket for higher loads.
A basket sits inside the housing and catches the solids. When it fills, the operator opens the housing, lifts out the basket and cleans it. The large basket holds more solids between cleanings.
Lines with significant solids, and utilities such as water and steam condensate.
Baskets, lids and gaskets.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Strainer body shapes that fit different pipe layouts.
An angle-line strainer turns the flow through 90 degrees, a tee-line strainer sits on a tee, and a Y-line strainer sits straight in the pipe with the element at an angle. The right shape saves fittings and keeps the pressure drop low.
Plants with limited space or specific pipe layouts.
Complete strainers, elements and gaskets.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Pressure housings that hold filter cartridges or bags.
A sealed housing holds one or more filter elements. The liquid or gas passes through them from the outside to the inside, and the dirt stays on the element. Housings are used for water, steam, air and some products.
Sterile air, culinary steam, process water and product filtration.
Housings, cartridges, bags and gaskets.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Traps that catch iron particles from the product with strong magnets.
A set of strong magnet bars sits in the flow. Ferrous metal particles, such as fine steel from worn parts or welding, are held on the bars while the product passes. The bars are removed and wiped clean at set intervals.
Before fillers, after grinding or powder handling, and in product lines where metal contamination must be avoided.
Magnet bars, housings and gaskets.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Smooth-bore hoses approved for contact with food and drink.
The hose has a smooth inner liner made of food-grade rubber or plastic, a reinforcing layer for pressure and an outer cover. The smooth inside has no crevices, so it can be cleaned easily and does not hold product or taste.
Transfer of milk, juice, beverages and syrups.
Hoses by the metre or cut to length with fittings.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Hoses for special jobs: gentle flavour, visibility or hot steam.

Filling halls, intake bays and CIP stations.
Racks and hangers supplied and fitted.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Rubber and PTFE rings that seal each joint.
A gasket sits between two fittings and is squeezed by a clamp or a union nut. It fills small gaps and stops leakage. The material is chosen for the product and the cleaning chemicals. Gaskets harden with age and heat, so they are replaced regularly.
Every clamp, union and flange on the line.
Gaskets in stock for the common standards.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Elbows, tees, reducers, unions and clamps for stainless pipe.
Fittings join and change the direction of pipe. Clamp fittings go together without tools in seconds and can be taken apart for cleaning. Welded fittings give a permanent joint. The standards (tri-clamp, DIN, SMS, IDF) are not interchangeable.
Pipework on all hygienic lines.
Fittings and clamps in stock.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Polished stainless tube for hygienic pipework.

Tube in standard lengths.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Systems that empty totes and IBCs completely.
The tote is placed in a frame that tilts or squeezes it, or a plate presses down onto the product. A discharge pump or valve then moves the product into the process, leaving the tote empty.
Fruit preparations, sauces, creams and syrups delivered in totes.
Systems and spares.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Systems that empty drums with a follower plate.
A plate fits inside the drum and presses on top of the product as a pump removes it. The plate follows the product down, so the pump never runs dry and the drum is almost fully emptied.
Pastes, thick creams, jams and ingredients delivered in drums.
Plates, seals and pumps.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Equipment for very thick products that do not flow by themselves.
A ram or pressing plate pushes the product into a pump that can handle thick material, such as a lobe, piston or screw pump. Heating the product slightly can help it flow.
Very viscous pastes, concentrates, fruit and chocolate preparations.
Rams, pumps and spares.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Hose reels, spray guns, foam units and wash stations.

Guns, nozzles, reels and fittings.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Brushes, scrapers and shovels in colours that mark each zone.
Each colour is assigned to a zone or task, such as raw area, cooked area or allergen. Tools of one colour stay in their zone, so contamination cannot be carried from one area to another by mistake.
Food plants following a hygiene or HACCP programme.
Tools in a full range of colours, with holders.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Pails, scoops, jugs and measures made of stainless steel.
Stainless steel does not crack, chip or retain flavour, and it can be washed at high temperature. This makes it a good choice for handling product, taking samples and measuring ingredients.
Sampling, weighing, ingredient handling and cleaning.
Pails and utensils in stock.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Hand-wash and equipment-wash sinks for hygiene areas.

Entrances to production areas, wash rooms and workshop areas.
Sinks and fittings.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Greases and oils that are safe if they touch food by accident.
Food-grade lubricants (H1) are made from ingredients that are allowed for incidental food contact. They are used on bearings, seals, O-rings and valves, so a small amount that gets into the product does not harm it.
Bearings, gearboxes, valve stems and seal assemblies in food plants.
Greases, oils and grease guns.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Parts that are swapped when the pack size or format changes.
Each machine has parts such as guides, nozzles, star wheels and format sets that are matched to a given pack size. They are exchanged during a changeover. Correct parts make the change quick and the pack consistent.
Plants that fill different pack sizes on the same machine.
Change parts supplied to match the machine.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Seals, valves and nozzles for filling heads.
The filling valve opens and closes to let a set volume into each pack. Its seals and nozzles wear with every cycle, and if they leak or drip the fill volume and hygiene suffer.
All liquid and viscous fillers.
Seal kits, valves and nozzles.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Planning, supplying and installing parts of or whole packaging lines.
Our engineers work out the layout, supply the equipment, install it, connect the utilities and controls, and run the line with product. The aim is a line that works together, not separate machines.
New lines, line extensions and moves.
Project engineering and installation.
Call us and an engineer will talk you through it, or come to the plant.
Machines for making and filling ice cream and chilled desserts.
Ice cream is frozen quickly while air is whipped in. A freezer cools the mix on a scraped surface, and feeders add fruit or pieces. The product is then filled and hardened.
Ice cream, frozen desserts and chilled dessert lines.
