    Processing Food and Beverage

    While Saving the Planet

    Consumers are driving more Food and Beverage (F&B) companies to adopt sustainable practices for their entire supply chain, from how the ingredients are grown to the disposal methods of the packaging. The Harvard Business Review reported in 2019 that 71% of consumers are actively buying more environmentally friendly products than they did five years before. And nowhere is that more prevalent than in F&B as consumers correlate their own food choices with environmental sustainability.

    What to Do Before Breaking Ground

    on Your New Processing Plant

    The design and construction of a new food and beverage (F&B) processing plant is a complex undertaking. To do the best job possible, everyone involved must work to create the most efficient and reliable system while working within the constraints of budgets and timelines. With the pace of change today, versatility and adaptability are crucial features in a new processing system. The same must apply to the physical plant which will be built or renovated to house the process. The goal is to make the most of today’s most suitable technologies, while simultaneously anticipating tomorrow’s in-novations.

    What to Do Before Breaking Ground

    on a Plant-Based Foods Processing Plant

    There are different design considerations for building a plant-based processing plant. Many plant-based foods—especially plant-based proteins—have substantially more ingredients than other foods. The material handling characteristics of those ingredients can vary widely from free flowing, to difficult, to cohesive. This whitepaper addresses what to do before building a new processing plant (or refurbishing an existing plant) and the unique challenges associated with processing plant-based foods.
