Electrostatics

    The Aim

To minimise seasoning wastage in the atmosphere or carryover onto conveying machinery, by applying the seasoning where it is required… on the product.

    How it Works

Achieved by negatively charging the atomised powder/oil seasoning so that it is attracted to the naturally positive base product… a true case of opposites attract.

    Advantages

Increased seasoning efficiency, reduced wastage, results in significant cost savings.

Provides cleaner working environment and cleaner conveying equipment resulting in less production down time.
