QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE, GUARANTEED

Proven solutions from cheese experts and consistent end-product quality

Expertise transformed into ​solutions with our best-practice lines for semi-hard cheese

The semi-hard cheese family includes well-known varieties such as Gouda, Edam and Maasdam. When making semi-hard cheese, the first step is to prepare curd and whey in a cheese vat. Then the whey is separated from the curd, and the curd is formed into its final cheese shape. The cheese is salted in a brine bath and after ripening, it is ready for consumption.​​

The best-practice lines for semi-hard cheese are available in various configurations. Our efficiency lines give you excellent cheese and whey quality in the most productive way.
