The Challenge

Fine Lady Bakeries specialise in supplying own label bakery products to leading supermarkets, wholesalers, as well as supplying bread to the sandwich making industry.

Blowers are an essential component within the baking process, used to pneumatically convey large volumes of flours and powders to various points for the initial mixing process.

Braby Ltd, a leading aluminium silo manufacturer, in conjunction with blower specialists HPC KAESER, were the preferred choice to design and install the silos and conveying systems for phase 1 of the Fine Lady Bakery in Manchester. The result is a successful, easy-to-maintain and energy-efficient installation with the added benefit of ultra-quiet operation.

Fine Lady Bakeries' Requirements

Flours and powders are key ingredients for all Fine Lady products. Depending on batch requirements, conveying lines need to transport up to 8 tonnes per hour, per conveying line and it’s important these ingredients are conveyed to the initial mixing process in the most reliable and energy-efficient way.

In addition to the main conveying lines, blowers are also used for other stages of the process. For example, tanker unloading into storage silos and other minor ingredients distribution which were also part of the project requirement for the impressive new production facility in Manchester.
