The bakery produces more than 100 different types of handmade breads, from focaccias to brioche and ciabattas. In the three years since winning a contract to supply bread and rolls to the Olympic team in 2012, annual sales have increased by 30%.
End of line specialist Endoline Machinery installed a high-speed packaging line, which involved the integration of other suppliers' equipment into the fully automated packing line, which operates at a speed of eight cases a minute.
Once frozen, the loaves and rolls are packed onto crates and transported to the packing station. At the start of the line a fully automatic Endoline case erector forms the cases that are then fed down to a Pattyn bag inserter machine, which has been integrated into the line to insert a bag into each formed case.
Endoline project-managed the entire line, including a labeller and metal detector.
