Case Study: 25 T/H Sugar Storage & Automated Repacking Facility
.
The Challenge: High-Volume Handling with Strict Hygiene and Dust Control
A large-scale sugar repacking facility required a comprehensive solution to receive, store, and package granulated sugar at a high throughput of 25 tonnes per hour. The project demanded food-grade stainless steel construction to prevent contamination and a robust dust extraction strategy to manage the combustible nature of sugar particulates, all implemented in two distinct phases to align with the factory’s expansion.

Our Solution: Integrated Food-Grade Process Line
Our team engineered a complete “intake-to-packaging” system designed for high-availability and total material integrity:
Our team engineered a complete “intake-to-packaging” system designed for high-availability and total material integrity:
- Hygienic Stainless Steel Storage: We manufactured and installed 2 large-scale 40 m3 stainless steel silos, providing a non-corrosive and sanitary environment for bulk sugar storage.
- High-Speed Vertical & Horizontal Conveying: To achieve the 25 t/h target, the system utilizes 3 heavy-duty bucket elevators for vertical lift and 3 precision screw conveyors for horizontal distribution, ensuring a constant feed to the packaging lines.
- Integrated Quality Control & Screening: The line includes specialized sieves and funnels to remove any agglomerates or foreign bodies, ensuring only pure granulated sugar reaches the final retail packs.
- Centralized Dust Suction & Filtration: To maintain a safe, ATEX-compliant environment, a centralized suction system with high-efficiency filters and industrial ventilators was installed to capture dust at every transfer point.
- Phase-Based Project Execution: The facility was delivered in two strategic stages, allowing the client to maintain operations while doubling their handling capacity.
