Over my 30 years in the industrial packaging industry, I have guided our family business through several technological eras, transitioning from basic mechanical systems to highly advanced, automated production lines. Today, my focus is on helping UK bakeries adapt to the severe pressures of rising operating costs and labour shortages by designing fully integrated, automated packaging systems.
Streamlining the Bakery Line from Oven to Case
In a traditional bakery, workers are needed to manually transfer cooled products from baking trays onto the infeed conveyor of a flow wrapper. This process is slow, costly, and introduces a risk of product contamination.
A fully automated line removes these manual touchpoints. By linking your cooling towers directly to our high-speed smart conveyor systems, we can automatically align, space, and feed products like biscuits, pies, or morning rolls into the wrapping machine.
To achieve this, we collaborate closely with our trusted international partners, bringing the best of Italian engineering to the UK market. We combine this high-quality machinery with our own local engineering expertise to build dependable, high-output production lines.
“When we engineer an automated line, our goal is to deliver a robust, predictable system that runs continuously, giving the bakery owner total peace of mind and stable operational costs.” – Ed Murphy
The Record Performance Pathway
Transitioning to automation can feel like a daunting task for many businesses. That is why we guide our clients through the Record Performance Pathway, a reliable seven-step process covering everything from initial factory layout design to installation, training, and ongoing technical support. This structured approach ensures that your new automated system integrates smoothly with your existing equipment.
