Our Mission

Efficiency & future-proof solutions for meat processing facilities

The slaughter industry is facing a range of complex challenges. Declining animal populations, rising operating costs, and increasingly strict legal requirements demand continuous adaptation and optimization of production processes. Plant downtimes, costly breakdowns, and inefficient production times pose significant risks to the profitability and smooth operation of your business.

With increasing consolidation in the industry and the centralization of production processes, maintenance requirements and system complexity are also on the rise. The high availability of your machines and equipment – often exceeding 98% availability– makes regular maintenance and preventive servicing essential. Unexpected breakdowns or insufficient maintenance can result in prolonged production downtimes and significant financial losses.

In addition, modifications and conversions to existing systems must be carefully planned and technically supervised to ensure system availability while meeting quality standards. Without thorough planning and effective project management, such changes can place unnecessary strain on production processes and significantly increase operating costs.

The demanding working conditions can pose a significant challenge when recruiting maintenance personnel. To address this issue, it is essential to develop a well-founded and forward-looking maintenance strategy. Such a strategy can not only help increase system efficiency but also extend the service life of the equipment.

In the face of increasing demands and growing competitive pressure, it needs competent and experienced support to minimize plant downtime, boost efficiency, and reduce long-term operating costs. We offer tailored solutions to optimize your production processes and prepare your company for the challenges ahead.
