“Gpi did a magnificent job of producing fast, efficient and user-friendly melting tanks in line with our requirements”
Intersnack produces, packs and sells savoury snacks, including Chio and POM-BÄR crisps, popcorn, nuts and peanut butter. Upgrades to the production lines led to a need for new melting tanks.
Hans Zweers, who has worked in maintenance and production engineering at Intersnack for 39 years, came into contact with Gpi via ST-Projects, another business relation: “The initial discussions were promising and there was a good click with Gpi De Gouwe. Their professional approach and knowledge made a good impression, so we decided to order five melting tanks from Gpi.”
Melting tanks, storage tanks and process tanks for the upgraded process line
Gpi designed and manufactured five melting tanks (also referred to as melting vats), two storage tanks and two process tanks for the upgrade to the production lines. Solid fats and oils are melted down to a liquid form in the melting tanks to allow mixing with the other product components for producing the product.
