FAQ
HRS Heat Exchangers utilise innovative heat recovery technology, allowing up to 90% of energy to be reused. Our corrugated tube and scraped surface heat exchangers minimise fouling, ensuring optimal performance and reduced operational costs.
Our AS Series is designed for products with high viscosities such as ketchup and DTA Series heat exchangers are designed to handle thicker fluids containing large particulates without clogging or damaging product integrity. The Unicus and R Series scraped surface heat exchangers prevent fouling and maintain high heat transfer rates, making them ideal for sauces, purées, and dairy-based products.
HRS offers advanced pasteurisation, sterilisation, and aseptic filling systems that enhance product safety and longevity. Our AsepticBlock systems combine heat treatment and filling in a compact, hygienic design, ensuring high-quality preservation without compromising taste, texture, or nutritional value.
Our fully automated CIP and SIP systems ensure hygienic operation with minimal downtime. These skid-mounted solutions provide thorough cleaning of process equipment, helping maintain food safety standards while reducing water and chemical usage.
Absolutely! Our engineering team designs bespoke thermal processing solutions tailored to your specific needs—whether for dairy, fruit and vegetable products, plant-based foods, or confectionery. We optimise system performance based on viscosity, particulate content, and processing requirements to ensure maximum efficiency.
