Drying and distribution system for raw materials

In addition to the presses, we set up the upstream drying of the raw materials thanks to a centralized system.

Advanteages:

  • reduction of setup times and production restart times
  • tidyness and cleanliness of the department
  • production cycle control
  • automatic replenishment of raw materials
  • raw materials batch traceability

Mixers and granulators

Mixers

Advantages:

  • Custom colors
  • Consistent color quality
  • Direct introduction of the mixture into the production system

Granulators

Advantages:

  • Immediate reintroduction of scraps into the production process
  • 0 production waste
  • Optimization of raw materials

THE CONNECTION WITH THE TERRITORY

The link with the Canavese territory goes beyond the geographical location. The expansion of Zeca’s production site is a concrete gesture to continue contributing to the development of the community that has been part of our identity for almost a century.
