About this Event
The workshop will bring together industry specialists, energy professionals, representatives from the Spooner Industries and AMF Bakery Systems, to present latest technology developments and practical guidance on improving oven efficiency, exploring low-carbon alternatives, and identifying cost-effective pathways to decarbonisation. It aims to support food manufacturers in understanding and reducing the energy and carbon impacts of industrial baking and cooking, which are among the most energy-intensive processes in food production. Many businesses face challenges in identifying inefficiencies, evaluating upgrade options, and understanding which low-carbon technologies are technically and financially viable. It will also provide a platform for knowledge exchange and information available for food manufacturers to address decarbonisation challenges.
