Convenience food: Dosing and filling PCM pumps & equipment
Lifestyles evolution have directly impacted cooking and eating habits, leading to a sharp rise in the ready meals market. The main causes of this development are : women employment increasing, catering development outside of home, leisure time development at the expense of homemade meals.
The Convenience food market brings together a heterogeneity of manufacturers ranging from industrial production of ready meals to artisanal production who mainly produces regional traditional recipes. PCM responds to this heterogeneity by making on demand systems for dosing viscous, pasty ingredients with or without pieces, for filling all types of containers (trays, bags, jars, etc.).
PCM adapts its systems to customer needs (high-speed automated systems or more traditional systems with filling on demand).
One thing does not change between these 2 worlds, quality and dosing accuracy!
