Small-batch and industrial depositors for confectionery and nutraceutical production

About confectionery and nutraceutical depositors

What are depositors in the confectionery and nutraceutical industries?

Depositors are precision machines designed to replicate the intricate hand movements of master confectioners at high speed. They enhance efficiency, consistency, and hygiene while reducing labor and product waste.

Baker Perkins offers a wide range of depositors used in the production of delicious confectionery hard candies. Applications include gummies, lollipops, fondants and fudges.

Baker Perkins starch-free depositors also rated for producing nutraceutical products. The innovative shapes they can produce and the precise dosing of active ingredients, even in large scale operations, make them a popular choice to manufacture products like vitamin gummies.

For the use of depositors for pharmaceutical and medical applications, please refer to our Health Products Depositor page.
