Where Chocolate Manufacturers Lose Product
At the end of each batch, liquid chocolate and confectionery products remain in transfer pipelines.
Retained product can:
- Increase cleaning time
- Create cross-contamination risks between formulations
- Reduce lot control efficiency
- Result in high-value product being lost
Pigging systems recover product from pipelines before cleaning begins, preserving saleable product that would otherwise be lost.
Designed for Heated and Hygienic Environments
HPS pigging systems are engineered for the specific challenges of chocolate and confectionery processing, including:
- Steam and water jacketed pipelines
- Heat tracing
- High-viscosity products
- Temperature-controlled environments
- Integration into new and existing lines
Our solutions help manufacturers to:
- Achieve recovery rates of up to 99.5%
- Reduce waste and waste-processing costs
- Improve lot control and allergen changeovers
- Minimise downtime in hot rooms
- Reduce labour-intensive washouts
- Increase overall production efficiency
