The Outcomes:
The Challenge:
The existing plant in the product forming area was old-fashioned with inefficient fans and high steam usage, operating on full fresh air.
The Solution:
We stripped out the old systems and installed new ones, using high temperature production area air to eliminate the need for steam heating. The new systems were installed, one at a time, so as not to disrupt production.
We used existing apertures to minimise down time and complied with our client’s hygienic construction standards. Our full stainless steel construction featured energy efficient fans, utilised with inverter speed control.
We are very happy with the cooling tunnels designed and supplied by Penmann. All projects have been undertaken in an extremely efficient manner and have been delivered on time and on budget, and we have been particularly pleased with the performance of the tunnels.

We found Penmann to have an excellent understanding not only of air conditioning and refrigeration but also of the production process and the logistics that surround it. All timescales were achieved and the systems are working well. I would have no hesitation in recommending Penmann to others.
