Case Study: Oscar Mayer Uses Infrared Heating

From Heraeus Noblelight, Inc.
 

 

Oscar Mayer manufactures a range of potato-topped and crumb-topped ready meals for major supermarkets and it is important, in terms of final presentation, that the products are pre-browned. By installing an oven using carbon infrared heaters Oscar Mayer has been able to eliminate previous maintenance problems, improve energy efficiency and liberate valuable floor space, at its food manufacturing plant in Chard, England.
