Revolutionizing Bacon Processing with the REICH AIRMASTER® UKQ - Case study ARGAL
September 2024
At REICH, innovation is at the heart of everything we do. Our latest partnership with Argal Alimentación in cooperation with our partner EMO SA is a shining example of how the REICH AIRMASTER® UKQ is transforming production processes for food manufacturers worldwide.
Case study Argal Alimentación:
“At ARGAL we decided for the innovative horizontal airflow UKQ technology from the German company REICH for the smoking process of our bacon due to the total uniformity that is obtained from the product, to the almost double load of units per trolley and to a significant reduction in weight loss during the process. These 3 main factors, besides from the technological advances of REICH UKQ equipment, were key in our decision making, once compared with other classic vertical airflow alternatives. The advantages and the savings anticipated by EMO were confirmed during the previous tests carried out at the REICH factory in Germany.”
Xavier Balcells – Director of Operations / Argal Alimentación S.A.
