​​​​​​​​​​​​Whey handling equipment for concentrating and treating whey

​​We offer special equipment for concentrating and treating whey. Our method involves turning the proteins into globules and feeding them back into the cheese milk, where they help give the product a smooth mouth feel. This process is especially suitable for e.g. the small-scale production of fresh, high moisture cheeses.

It is also very environmentally friendly, since the treated whey proteins become part of the cheese, rather than being wasted. And producers get a higher yield from the same amount of raw ingredients, which means more profitable production. However, since the whey proteins absorb water there is a limit to how far you take this - the precise limit being determined by the type of cheese.

Handling whey the sustainable way

Find out how cheese holds a key to a more sustainable world. 

Our filtration solution filters out two thirds of the water content that in turn can be reused in production, cutting costs for cheese producers and recovery of the water. A sustainable solution for cheese and whey production.
