Dry Powder Blending
Complete Contract Blending Solutions
With state of the art blending facilities, we're one of the UK’s leading contract blending services for speciality coffee, hot chocolate and whitener dry powder products.
We can pack dry powder into 1 tonne FIBC (flexible intermediate bulk containers) for you to pack independently. We offer contract food bulk powder packing in 25kg and 12.5kg sacks, consumer or wholesale packaging such as composites, doy pouches or jars.
Blending Services
Ribbon Mixer
The ribbon blender mixes free-flowing raw materials by gently rotating the powder in U-shaped trough. An agitator, consisting fixed blades inside allows the powder to move in a well-balanced axial and radial flow pattern.
Industrial Mixer
For larger scale blending we offer industrial mixers and utilise Lindor rotatory drum mixers. With virtually no shear force they are perfect for fragile and heat sensitive products like milk powder. With a 2 tonne capacity our industrial blender provides an effective mixing solution for larger volume products.
MATCON Blending
With Matcon blending we can offer you state of the art blending technology. Matcon blending provides a greater degree of control how powders are blended with the utmost precision. This form of industrial blending provides a contained solution, perfect for allergen control with designated bins to prevent contamination.
Agglomeration
Agglomeration is a technique of particle enlargement which creates granules. We use state of the art technology to agglomerate particles through direct steam injection. With an economical design we minimise powder wastage by isolating, extracting and re-processing any non-agglomerated powder for a consistent product.
