Tensio cleans dozens of cutting lines, washers, blanchers, fryers, freezer tunnels on a weekly basis. Of course we don’t do this ourselves, but our knowledge of the process, our experience and the assistance provided during the cleaning means we can help our customers to achieve their goals and we are currently market leaders in our area for the potato and vegetable processing industries.
Flexibility and effi ciency are carefully balanced, in the interest of their growth and the wellbeing of the employees. When thorough cleaning wasn’t possible as a result of long conveyor belts which are diffi cult to access, Tensio was contacted for its expertise in fi nding out how this situation could be resolved.
Problems with the oven cleaning were the reason for this customer to work together with Tensio, after another customer highly recommended us following the excellent cleaning of their fryers.
The company wanted to have the effi ciency of the interim cleaning analysed and optimised through their sustainable and energy conscious actions, in order to increase their level of production processing.
After commissioning a new type of oven with an alternative heating method, the cleaning procedure prescribed by the manufacturer didn’t appear satisfactory,
resulting in a fire.
Their success and growth, as well as their ambition to further develop their position as a global player, resulted in a need to increase the effi ciency of the cleaning in the various diff erent departments. A collaboration at group level and a sustainable grip on control and pollution were now needed more than ever before. They needed a partner who could work, think, grow and evolve together with them.
After the transition to polyunsaturated oil (sunfl ower oil), the pollution rate was much more signifi cant after a production run. This particularly manifested itself in the ovens, more specifi cally in the external heat exchanger tubes.This meant the current cleaning procedure with a maximum steam pressure of 18 bar was no longer suffi cient.
