• 4 cylinders, more modern, complement our traditional milling processes.
• Our digitalized control room enables a great visibility, programming and control over the different steps of the production process.
• Thanks to our automated and computerized equipment, we have a complete traceability over the different stages and product tracking.
• In our labs, we systematically operate quality analyses and controls, from the receipt of goods to the packaging of our flours: these include for instance physicochemical, rheological, bacteriological analyses.
• Our organization and our equipment, including mixing stations and 15 silos of a total capacity of 700 tons, enable us to quickly meet any kind of demand.
