Starfrost is working with customer Lantmännen Unibake and engineering contractor Toban Engineering to install another custom Helix spiral freezer at the Lantmännen Unibake bakery site in Milton Keynes. This exciting development is set to improve the efficiency and productivity of one of the UK’s largest bakery producers.
With a global presence spanning 34 bakeries around the world, Lantmännen Unibake has established itself as a specialist in frozen baked goods. The installation of the Helix spiral freezer represents a forward-thinking step in their commitment to providing consumers around the world with high-quality frozen baked goods. The Helix spiral freezer, developed by a team of experts, is capable of freezing more than 16,000 dough products per hour, ensuring Lantmännen Unibake is able to meet the growing needs of its customers.
This high-performance helical system features the Intralox DirectDrive System plastic belt, a lightweight, strong, clean and reliable alternative to traditional metal belts. Ideal for soft, delicate foods, Intralox tape reduces product sticking and marking, giving Lantmännen Unibake a smooth freezing process that optimizes product quality.
The Helix spiral freezer is equipped with a Starfrost de-frost system, this feature ensures trouble-free operation for a week 24/7 before defrosting is required. This innovative technology will increase production times, reduce water consumption and improve cooling efficiency for the Lantmännen Unibake.
