Freezing
and chilling technology specialist Starfrost
has designed, built and installed two in-line Helix Spiral freezers for raw
sausage production at Blakemans factory, one of Europes
leading manufacturers of sausage and meat products. Star Refrigeration, a Starfrosts parent
company, supplied an environmentally responsible plant to provide energy
efficient cooling for the new freezing system.
As part of
the development program, Blakeman was looking to upgrade from a traditional
blast freezing process to a fully automated in-line freezing system for a
variety of sausage products. According to the company, increased energy
efficiency, maximum throughput and consistently high quality products were key
drivers in sourcing an equipment supplier.
Starfrost
was able to supply a bespoke system with a unique air-flow, designed for fast,
energy efficient and uniform freezing of different products. Through working
together with Star Refrigeration, Starfrost offered a total solution for our
freezing requirements, which also met our overall environmental policy, said
Company Managing Director Philip Blakeman.
