A global leading food manufacturer recently expanded its flatbread production using Kemutec’s KEK in-line food sifters.

Kemutec, a technology brand of Coperion, was invited to tender for the project alongside two other companies. The goal was to determine which sifter and services best suited the customer’s needs. With a strong reputation in the food processing industry for supplying new equipment and spare parts, Kemutec was seen as a reliable partner. Their solutions are engineered in the UK on a project-by-project basis by an experienced in-house team.

The customer, skilled bakers with an established process, required an adaptable In-line sifter for their new recipe lines. Kemutec demonstrated the versatility of its KEK centrifugal sifter technology. Its body design allowed pressurized conveying and easy operator access.
