FEED & PETFOOD
The dosage of additives and ingredients for pet food is crucial, as it affects the nutritional value, taste, texture and health of animals.
ST-Projects specializes in building turnkey solutions in the feed & pet food industry. This includes greenfields, but also the optimization or adjustment of existing processes.
In addition to turnkey solutions, we can also serve you as a component supplier. ST-Projects has extensive experience in building systems in low, medium & high care environments. Our specialists are aware of the latest developments, legislation and guidelines in your industry.
Thanks to our many years of experience in the feed & pet food industry, we can be your preferred partner in:
Hygiene regulations
We have up to date knowledge and years of experience in the field of relevant regulations and deliver in accordance with the GMP guidelines and the EHEDG and HACCP regulations. GMP practices include sanitary production facilities, process controls, cleaning and disinfection, and documentation of procedures.
EHEDG focuses on hygienic design and engineering, while HACCP focuses on identifying and controlling food safety hazards during the production process. These approaches are complementary and can be used together to ensure a high level of food safety in your factory.
PRODUCTIon PROCESSEs
Raw materials, including grains, proteins, fats, vitamins and minerals are selected and prepared for the production process. If desired, any additional nutrients, such as prebiotics, probiotics, enzyme preparations and other functional ingredients can be added to your formula.
We supply a wide range of installations for transporting, adding supplements and grinding, mixing, pressing, dosing, weighing, sieving, heating, cooling, freezing, filling, packaging, preserving and extruding feed and pet food.
EASY CLEANING
Refers to the design and engineering of equipment, installations and processes for easy cleaning and hygiene. This is crucial to ensure food safety, prevent contamination and comply with hygiene regulations. Consider, for example, the use of smooth surfaces, absence of dead corners, easily dismantled equipment, etc.
In addition, we supply automated CIP (cleaning in place) systems that speed up the cleaning process by circulating cleaning solutions through the system, without the need for disassembly.
TRACEABILITY
In many countries there are laws and regulations that require feed & pet food manufacturers to implement traceability systems to meet strict safety standards. Traceability refers to the ability to track and record the origin, production history and distribution of pet foods and ingredients throughout the supply chain. The purpose of traceability is to ensure the safety of food, protect animals and improve the speed and efficiency of any recalls in the event of food safety problems. A method that can be considered, for example, is (automated) sampling.
ATEX
In the feed & pet food industry situations may occur in which explosive atmospheres arise, for example due to the presence of dust, gases or vapors from certain production processes. It is therefore extremely important to take the correct safety measures to prevent explosion hazards. We identify your hazardous areas, carry out a risk inventory and classification, implement preventive measures and draw up a plan for maintenance and inspection of equipment and installations in order to identify and prevent potential defects or problems in a timely manner.
