MECATHERM unveiled its latest oven in October last year, at iba. Since then, the M-VT vertical oven has also been presented at Gulfood Manufacturing, which makes two/two for this piece of equipment in terms of trade shows attended vs. awards gained.
While recipe variations for baguettes and bread rolls are not only to be expected but also make for unique selling points, high hydration rates and long dough resting times are the calling card of more sophisticated, authentic premium products.
Among the solutions MECATHERM is presenting at IBIE, new digital services will debut, providing tools to help optimize process efficiency.
MECATHERM will highlight the M-Care, a new digital solution helping industrial bakers to optimize their performance. Live demonstrations will be organized to showcase its features.
The trend for artisan quality brings forth a wealth of delightful, premium breads and baguettes, with texture and flavor characteristics nothing short of magic. It takes exact science and technology to perfect the process, however. Dedicated lines preserve the tradition of the technique with increased process efficiency.
On-the-go or in home offices, nothing seems to be able to slow snacking down. Snacks are also increasingly the preferred option over regular mealtimes. Together with the hunger to snack, however, the demand for more diverse, healthier and tastier products also grows. Flexible technology is needed for the task.
With thriving opportunities for snacks, bakeries innovate to propose new experiences. A technology solution designed for continuous production updates is Mecatherm’s MECAFLEX automated line. Built for product diversity, it is able to run a comprehensive range of snacks.
MECATHERM launched the AUTHENTIK BAGUETTE, a solution that allows manufacturers to bake more authentic products, with a product positioned midway between the classic baguette and the artisan-style baguette.
At its site in Poland, free-from specialist Ultrapharm creates gluten-free bakery products and continuously adds to its high-quality product range. Since September 2019, the company has been doing so with the help of a new M-TA oven by MECATHERM.
In industrial bagel manufacturing, the biggest challenge is fitting the production line in the available space while meeting individual recipe and process demands. Due to space constraints, certain modules can be considered optional, while others are highly recommended when customizing a line to specific requirements.
Mecatherm, French manufacturer of industrial ovens and production lines, has signed a partnership with American ABI Ltd, a specialist in bagel makeup equipment. Together they are planning to market an industrial bagel line. baking+biscuit international investigates further.
