INDUSTRIES
Equipment for Food Flavourings, seasonings and Spices
Matcon's industrial mixing and materials handling equipment enables manufacturers to safely handle the dry ingredients used in food flavorings and seasons, including those with allergens and produce to Halal or Kosher standards.
Increase Production Capacity and Production
Matcon's system modules enable manufacturers of food flavourings, fragrances, spices and seasonings to facilitate filling, mixing, dosing, discharging and packing. Our straightforward, hygienic and effective approach is all you need to innovate and keep ahead of the competition. By decoupling the processing steps, we enable companies to achieve a flexible manufacturing system.
YOUR CHALLENGES
Mixing challenges for food flavouring and spices manufacturers
Recipes often contain powders with very different bulk densities & particle sizes, causing segregation of the mix on transfer.
Some powder mixes can become cohesive & poor flowing, which slow the line whilst blockages are cleared.
A coupled production line that is unable to meet diversity or consumer demands.
Dusty environments create cross-contamination risks and pose health risks to staff.
HOW WE CAN HELP
Improve food flavouring and spices manufacturers productivity
A system designed to optimize production flow is what we do. Providing full batch traceability and batch integrity throughout the complete production process.
By employing parallel processing, the manufacturing process steps (formulation, mixing, packing and cleaning) are decoupled, with each process step taking place independently, maximizing process efficiency and Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE).
Our unique Cone Valve Technology located within each IBC handles all powder types & protects your mixed powders during transfer, maintaining their integrity and quality.
Its closed system design gives full dust containment for a cleaner environment and operator safety.
OUR EXPERIENCE
Working with flavouring and spices manufacturers
The Matcon team have experience of working around the globe with leading manufacturers of food flavourings, spices and seasonings.
We’re experts on designing systems that allow manufacturers to fulfil orders quickly and at short notice as well as increase their production output.
We promote scaling-up of pre-mixes to reduce the number of weighments & diminish the risk of error.
So how do we do this?
OUR APPROACH
Understanding of requirements for batch and made-to-order
In the food processing industry, high quality products are essential to maintain customer satisfaction, build a strong reputation and drive brand awareness.
Manufacturers producing dry spices, herbs and seasoning products can make to order on short deadlines, whilst utilizing hundreds of different recipes and thousands of ingredients because in-bin blending gives them the flexibility they need, eliminating costly inventory.
The Matcon IBC Tumble Blenders mixing capability can also be expanded with the use of a high shear intensifier and liquid addition.
Fully contained at all times, the system is dust-free and reduces the space required for clean-room or safe zone status.
The IBC Powder Handling System provides the perfect platform to improve productivity and expand your product offering as you innovate & grow.
SYSTEM MODULES
Powder Handling Systems for Spices and Flavourings
This simple system is all you need to get started the right way. By decoupling the processing steps we enable companies to achieve a flexible manufacturing system.
The Matcon system is based on using Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) to transport powders between manufacturing steps and as a blending vessel. Because everything is contained within the IBC, there is no clean-down of the blender between recipe changes, which gives you the ultimate flexibility of operation.
