The Client
A UK-based food manufacturing facility operating continuous production lines with strict temperature control requirements.
System Type
High-temperature thermal fluid heating system supporting continuous cooking ovens within a large-scale food manufacturing environment.
The Challenge
Greenfield Foods Ltd was experiencing frequent downtime and inconsistent oven temperatures across its production line. Degraded thermal fluid and poor heat transfer were impacting product quality, increasing maintenance callouts, and creating concerns around system reliability during peak production periods.
The Solution
Thermal Fluid Solutions conducted a comprehensive system audit, including fluid sampling and performance analysis. The existing thermal fluid was safely removed and replaced, the system was thoroughly flushed, and operating temperatures were optimised to suit production demands. Ongoing monitoring recommendations were also implemented to protect long-term performance.
The Result
The improved system delivered stable, consistent heat transfer across all ovens, significantly reducing downtime and maintenance requirements. Production efficiency increased, product quality became more consistent, and the site team gained greater confidence in the reliability and safety of their heating system.
