Systems and Solutions from Provisur® Technologies<br />
During the pandemic, the number of pet owners increased, leading to significant<br />
growth in the pet food industry. As the production of pet food requires efficient<br />
processes and robust machines able to handle large quantities, many pet food<br />
manufacturers rely on innovative technologies from the Provisur® portfolio. These highperformance<br />
systems support producers across a range of applications to increase yield<br />
and reduce costs. Renowned as a specialist for industrial food processing machines,<br />

Due to the pet boom of the COVID-19<br />
pandemic, the rapid growth in the pet<br />
food industry has led to an increased<br />
demand for the modern, highperformance<br />
machines pioneered by<br />
Provisur® Technologies, headquartered in<br />
Chicago, Illinois. In accordance with the<br />
company motto "Pushing Boundaries",<br />
Provisur® develops and manufactures<br />
efficient and robust systems for<br />
separating, grinding and mixing, forming,<br />
and more. The machines are used in<br />
industrial food processing as well as in the<br />
pet food segment. The Provisur® portfolio<br />
includes premium quality legacy brands<br />
such as AM2C®, Beehive®, Formax®,<br />
Lutetia®, Weiler® and others, all of them<br />
cutting-edge technology leaders in their<br />
respective segments.<br />
Olivier Bazin, Area Sales Manager EMEA-<br />
CIS Separation Business Unit, describes<br />
current developments in the pet food<br />
market segment: "In order to meet the<br />
increased demand, the current trend<br />
among the major players in the industry<br />
is towards high-performance production<br />
lines that can process large volumes and<br />
at the same time drive automation in the<br />
industry." Peter Berkensträter, Provisur<br />
Account Manager Central and Eastern<br />
Europe/Central Asia adds: "We are seeing<br />
that pet food processors are increasingly<br />
investing in first-class quality systems and<br />
that their products comply with the same<br />
safety and hygiene standards as those<br />
applied to non-pet food items. Another<br />
trend that is currently emerging is that<br />
many food manufacturers are now also<br />
producing for the pet food segment."<br />
Overall, the specialists at Provisur® have<br />
observed that pet food suppliers are<br />
focusing on making their processes even<br />
more efficient and profitable in the wake<br />
The Weiler® Dominator 14 from<br />
Provisur is one of the outstanding<br />
system components and impresses<br />
with its first-class quality and high<br />
throughput.<br />
of increased raw material costs and global<br />
supply chain bottlenecks. This is where<br />
Provisur's® high-performance systems<br />
come into play, offering innovative,<br />
modern, and profitable solutions for<br />
processes such as separation, grinding<br />
and mixing.<br />
Separation - robust systems for<br />
high-performance applications<br />
The Provisur® portfolio includes a wide<br />
range of systems for separating meat<br />
or fish that optimally meet the needs<br />
of the pet food industry. These include,<br />
for example, the separators of the<br />
particularly powerful Beehive S series,<br />
which separate meat, poultry and more<br />
at high speed and maximize recovery<br />
yield thanks to the innovative screw and<br />
filter technology. They are characterized<br />
by their robust design and are therefore<br />
ideal for processing large quantities of<br />
raw materials. Their innovative, extremely<br />
durable ceramic components reduce<br />
maintenance requirements and thus<br />
lead to lower maintenance costs. The<br />
modular Barracuda separation system<br />
from Provisur® is also highly sought after<br />
by pet food producers. It combines the<br />
outstanding separation technologies<br />
of the Beehive® and AM2C® brands to<br />
create a new standard of excellence for<br />
this application. The Barracuda series<br />
deploys a high-pressure system that<br />
increases throughput while minimizing<br />
the temperature rise in the end product,<br />
which in turn increases product safety.<br />
The bottom line is that users of this<br />
innovative separation technology benefit<br />
from optimized yields.<br />
