Heat and Control Inc., and ScandiNova Systems AB, have announced a strategic partnership to deliver their next generation of Pulse Electric Field (PEF) technology to the food industry.
The partnership will combine Heat and Control’s expertise in design of food production equipment systems and automation with ScandiNova’s technology and Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) solution.
Together Heat and Control and ScandiNova are co-innovating with an electroporation solution for the food industry that will bring a new approach to product quality, line efficiency and energy savings.
Initially targeting the consumer potato products sector, namely savoury snack food, French fries and potato products, Heat and Control releases the patented E-FLO electroporation system that, integral to its design, features the ScandiNova PEF solution. This system has been designed to address the challenges food manufacturers face such as energy consumption, product quality or minimizing the formation of unfavourable product attributes such as acrylamide.
Tony Caridis, President of Heat and Control Inc: “We are pleased to form this partnership with ScandiNova and leverage their knowledge of PEF technology to help our customers meet their production goals.”
Fredrik Mella, President of ScandiNova AB: “PEF is a strategic growth area for ScandiNova and Heat and Control will be the perfect partner with its strong global market presence, game changing mind set and leading technology.”
