As we’re becoming more environmentally conscious, it’s important to apply this awareness to real-life and real business practices, including in pizza manufacturing. Luckily, our team at Quantum has the automated technology to do so.
Incorporating sustainable solutions in pizza manufacturing is important so that brands don’t negatively affect the environment. Manufacturing and industry, in general, can have severe impacts on the environment. But at Quantum, we make it easy to incorporate eco-friendly practices in pizza manufacturing. By offering automated pizza making equipment that conserves ingredients and is energy and resource efficient, our team is committed to providing sustainable solutions for frozen pizza brands worldwide.
We’ll describe what eco-friendly automated solutions are available at Quantum, including sustainable target pizza sauce applicators and eco-friendly cheese waterfall applicators. But first, we’ll go through some of the benefits of incorporating environmentally friendly business practices in pizza manufacturing. Besides being environmentally friendly, sustainable business practices can benefit various aspects of pizza production. As a result, it doesn’t make sense to not incorporate eco-friendly manufacturing solutions.
Benefits of Sustainable Pizza Manufacturing
Making your business more environmentally friendly can transform your production process in other ways. Sustainable pizza manufacturing not only has less of an impact on the environment, but it also lowers operational costs, improves efficiency and productivity, and future-proofs the production process. At Quantum, our automated pizza equipment improves sustainability and brings these benefits to any pizza assembly line. Automation is a simple sustainable solution that transforms other aspects of pizza manufacturing.
Lower Operating Costs
Sustainable pizza manufacturing lowers operational costs in many ways. From conserving ingredients to being energy efficient, sustainable business practices decrease the amount spent on overhead costs. After incorporating sustainable practices, businesses leave less of an impact on the environment while also widening their profit margins. Employing automated equipment throughout your pizza production line is a sustainable solution in conserving materials and becoming more energy-efficient, leading to a better bottom line.
Future-Proofed Production
Before anyone invests in a new method of pizza production, they’ll want to be assured that their new equipment will work in the long run. Luckily, sustainable business practices such as increasing energy efficiency, limiting waste, and conserving materials help future-proof a business. Automating pizza assembly lines can in fact future-proof a business because Quantum equipment is built with the latest technology to improve sustainability in production. Incorporating sustainable automated equipment increases the long-term viability of both the equipment and the business itself. Eco-friendly businesses can also become more competitive, which is ideal for increasing demand for your products.
Improved Efficiency and Productivity
Implementing eco-friendly pizza production practices also improves efficiency and productivity. For example, automated pizza making equipment with reclaim systems (which we’ll describe later) optimizes the reapplication of unused ingredients. Automated sustainability solutions, such as those at Quantum, streamline assembly workflows without sacrificing quality.
Now that we’ve reviewed some benefits of incorporating sustainable pizza production solutions through automation, let’s focus on which types of eco-friendly pizza making equipment are available at Quantum.
Eco-Friendly Pizza Making Equipment
Quantum Technical Services offers a wide range of eco-friendly pizza equipment, including:
- Cardboard Circle Placers
- Sauce Applicators
- Cheese and IQF Vegetable Applicators
- Meat and Pepperoni Slicers
- Dry and Granular Ingredient Applicators
- Conveyors
Each type of automated equipment brings eco-friendly practices to a pizza production line in a number of ways. These practices and features include water energy efficiency, ingredient conservation, and minimized waste.
Energy and Water Efficiency
At Quantum, our equipment is designed to be energy-efficient to save companies on utility costs and resource use, which widens profit margins. Equipment that uses water lubrication systems is built to conserve the water that it needs. Energy and water efficiency is an environmentally-friendly feature that benefits businesses as well.
Ingredient Conservation
Another sustainable practice in pizza manufacturing is relying on pizza making equipment that has reclaim capabilities or target application. This limits ingredient overuse and waste. In waterfall applicators, the reclaim systems reapply unused ingredients which prevents ingredients from being thrown away. Targeted application uses the amount of ingredients that your brand specifies, so immediately it prevents ingredient waste and lowers costs.
Minimized Waste
Lastly, limiting wasted products is an eco-friendly feature of our automated pizza equipment. Because our equipment guarantees consistency and high quality with every pizza, products pass quality control. As a result, these products don’t have to be thrown out due to assembly errors. This limits ingredient and whole product waste, increases productivity, and saves on material costs. Limiting food waste is directly beneficial for the environment and automation can significantly decrease food waste from the assembly line.
Energy and water efficiency, ingredient conservation, and minimized waste are eco-friendly practices made possible by implementing automation in a pizza production line. Let’s explore how these sustainable practices work in real time with our target pizza sauce applicators and our cheese waterfall applicators.
Sustainable Target Pizza Sauce Application
At Quantum, we offer both waterfall and target pizza sauce applicators. Automated target pizza sauce applicators present a unique opportunity to practice sustainable pizza assembly all while creating high-quality and consistent products. As we’ve detailed above, target applicators allow your company to use only the amount of sauce necessary per pizza to prevent ingredient overuse and save on costs. Our target pizza sauce application guarantees consistent sauce application according to brand guidelines every time.
Eco-Friendly Cheese Waterfall Applicators
Much like our targeted sauce applicators, Quantum cheese waterfall applicators also limit waste and lower overhead, while maintaining energy efficiency. Waterfall applicators are sustainable in a different way than targeted applicators, but they’re still eco-friendly. Our cheese waterfall applicators reapply any unused ingredients caught by the reclaim system. This is an efficient sustainable solution for limiting waste and ensuring that your ingredients are being used during the assembly line. Automation is a single solution to increasing the number of sustainability measures throughout a pizza assembly line.
