Our largest Contact Drier to date has been shipped






Rendertech has recently shipped our largest Contact Drier to date, to one of our long-standing clients in New Zealand.
With a heating surface area of approximately 600 m2 and operating pressure of 800 kPa, it is designed for rendering lines with large throughputs. One drier can be used where two machines were previously required. Full stainless steel construction allows for longevity.
The drier was designed in-house to the latest design codes and is based on our 34 years of experience. It was proudly manufactured in New Zealand by our sister company Kawerau Engineering.
'When we started a new product line in fish meal, we found our existing processing plant wasn’t fit for purpose. We needed a process streamlined for fish to achieve a high-end product. Rendertech had the experience and expertise to achieve the quality we were after, with good equipment design. They could also manufacture and install the plant quicker than anyone else, so our plant had the shortest downtime possible. We’ve achieved all-round plant performance, with a high-quality fish meal, energy savings, and speed – we’ve increased from 2.5 tonnes an hour to 9.5 tonnes an hour with the new Rendertech plant, and reduced energy costs by 40%.'
