Benefits and filtration solutions for the food industry

The importance of tailor-made filtration solutions for the food industry.

Adopting filtration solutions for the food industry requires the first order.

In Italy, the sector is a source of pride for the entire nation; with more than 60,000 companies in the area and more than 460,000 employees, it ranks first in terms of turnover and second in terms of the number of companies, and the value of exports is also growing steadily.

The benefits: protection from dust, waste and odours

Processes within the food industry include cooking, grinding, heat treatment, mechanical and chemical extraction and much more.

All this generates:

Dust is mainly from the production of flour or sugar. They require ATEX-compliant and ATEX-marked extraction equipment, as these substances pose a risk as they are explosive.
Scraps, such as those from cereal flaking, need to be filtered as they may contain impurities, unwanted plant residues or other particles foreign to the final product.
Odours resulting from artificial flavourings used to intensify the taste of food or from the cooking of food must be eliminated from the premises because they may contaminate other preparations and to limit odour emissions to the outside.

All these pollutants can be purified through filtration solutions for the food industry.

The solutions: filter cages and frames for filter sleeves

For filtration solutions for the food industry to perform their functions, they need unique accessories, such as the essential filter cages and frames for filter sleeves, chosen according to the production environment in which they are placed.

Versatile and adaptable:

The relatively simple structure makes these artefacts perfect for application in different contexts. In the case of specific needs, they can be moulded ad hoc for a plant with specific characteristics.

Equipment protection:

By using these air purification systems, equipment throughout the company can be protected from damage caused by solid particles. This helps to extend the service life of equipment and reduce maintenance costs.

Adopting filtration solutions for the food industry today is, therefore, essential to ensure a positive impact on both the quality of the end product and the comfort and safety of workers.
