Processing aids and equipment for food processors

From raw material to finished product, with more control and consistency

SHIMANI GROUP provides food processing aids and technical support to optimize production processes. Our preservatives, flavor enhancers, emulsifiers and other solutions help maintain the quality, stability and consistency of the final product.

The challenges food processors face

Product Stability

Changes in formulation or raw material quality can affect product texture and stability.

Limited Shelf Life

Keeping the product fresh and safe takes the right ingredients and accurate dosing.

Cost Control

Inefficient use of processing aids can raise costs and cause losses during production.

Process Efficiency

Processes that aren't optimized can slow production and affect final product quality.

Compliance Requirements

Ingredients and processes must meet food safety standards and labeling requirements.

Flavor Consistency

Differences between production batches can affect flavor and the consumer's experience.

“Food processing needs constant control of formulations, dosing and processes. Even a small change can affect flavor, texture, shelf life and product cost.”

Questions from dairies and meat processors

For dairies and meat processors, from milk intake to the salami that comes out of ripening.

How do I check milk when I receive it from farmers?

Before pouring it into the vat, run the antibiotic residue test, measure density with a lactodensimeter and temperature with a thermometer. Check each farmer's milk separately, before it's mixed with the rest, because one can with antibiotics can spoil the whole vat. Antibiotic testing is also a legal obligation for processors.

What's the difference between rennet and yogurt culture?

Rennet (cheese “maja”) is an enzyme: it sets the milk but doesn't ferment it. Yogurt culture is live lactic bacteria that turn lactose into lactic acid; most cheeses use both, while yogurt needs only the culture.

How do I keep the salt level of cheese in brine consistent?

Measure the salt concentration regularly with a brine tester. Brine loses salt over time because the cheese absorbs it, so if you don't measure it, the saltiness changes from one batch to the next.

How do I reduce weight loss in ham and cooked products?

Phosphates help meat proteins hold more water, so losses during cooking and smoking go down. Follow the manufacturer's dose and the legal limit for your product category, and list them on the label.

What are salami and ham wrapped in?

In casings, which we have in calibers 30, 35, 40 and 50, 300 m or 1,500 m long depending on the model. During ripening or cooking, elastic meat netting keeps the product in shape.

Can I give a meat product a smoky taste without smoking it?

Yes, with smoke flavoring, which adds a smoky taste to any meat product. Under EU consumer information rules, the label says “smoke flavoring”, and it must not suggest the product was smoked the traditional way.
