Industrial cheese drying rooms
Ripening rooms that control temperature, relative humidity and air movement to achieve the typical flavour, colour, body, texture and aroma of each cheese.
Design and manufacture
We design and manufacture cheese drying and ripening units.
Controlled ripening
Temperature, relative humidity and air movement under control.
Minimal maintenance
Equipment designed for minimal maintenance.
Energy savings
Compression heat recovery.
How we build cheese drying rooms
Most cheeses require a controlled ripening process in dedicated rooms.
Controlled ripening
We control temperature, relative humidity and air movement to achieve the typical characteristics of the cheese.
Ripening time
It depends mainly on the moisture of the curd and the room temperature.
Tailor-made air network
Our engineering department designs the distribution: washable textile ducts or metal ducts with grilles or nozzles.
Design, supply and installation
We take care of the complete drying room.
Energy savings
Equipment that recovers compression heat.

Frequently asked questions
What is controlled in a cheese drying room?
Temperature, relative humidity and air movement, to achieve the typical flavour, colour, body, texture and aroma of the cheese.
What does ripening time depend on?
On several factors: the lower the moisture of the curd, the longer the time needed, because water favours enzymatic reactions. Temperature is also decisive.
How is the air distributed in the room?
With washable textile ducts or with metal duct networks with grilles or nozzles, depending on the installation and the final product.
Do they use a lot of energy?
We design equipment that requires minimal maintenance and achieves considerable energy savings by recovering compression heat.
Do you need a cheese drying room?
We advise you with no obligation.
