The following is a summary of the main industrial processes handled in our plant.
Production
Hydrolyzation
Belourthe is probably one of the only independent factories in the world with the capability of delivering production-scale hydrolyzed cereals.This process enables to optimize the organoleptical qualities of the product, facilitates the digestion and adds natural sweetness (obtaining sweet cereals without addition of sugar)
Wet mixing
We run three preparation lines: premix, wet mix, thermal treatment.
Continuous mixing with high performance and constant quality.
Capability of mixing huge number of raw materials:

Gluten free products are mixed and processed in a separate production line.
Drying
Different types of drying (performed on 9 roller driers) and the capability of performing different Maillard reactions allow us to achieve different products textures and very particular tastes.
Dry mixing
Three continuous dry mix lines (6 tons/hour per line) are capable of adding innumerous ingredients to the cereals (milk powder, vitamins, sugar, fruits, vegetables, fibers, prebiotics, and others)

- 1 tin line 127 mm (80/min)
- 1 double head bag-in-box line (88/min)
- 1 Sachet line (100/min)
