FOOD AND BEVERAGE INDUSTRY

Wire cloth and expanded metal sheets find widespread application in the food and beverage industry, where they support a number of critical processing steps that ensure quality and safety of processes and products.

Due to their versatility of application, they are ideal for customized products capable of adapting to different industrial situations, improving the efficiency and cleanliness of production processes in a wide range of food production.

The benefits of wire mesh and expanded metal in mechanical processes

Wire cloth and expanded metal are particularly popular in mechanical processes, for the manufacture of production equipment and conveyor belts for drying, washing and sieving. Indeed, the mesh openings, which can be customized in shape and size, provide excellent filtration and separation performance that allows the removal of unwanted particles, even microscopic ones, without stopping the passage of liquids.

The benefits of expanded metal and wire mesh in thermal processes

Drying, cooling, baking and freezing are the thermal processes in which expanded metal and wire cloths find great use, especially in creating trays, conveyor belts for baked goods and structural supports.

Expanded metal sheets and wire cloths ensure processing in a uniform thermal environment due to their abilities to facilitate the flow of heat and air around food, and they distribute temperature excellently due to their thermal conduction properties.
