Food And Drink
An Appetite for Engineering
The food and drink industry encompasses some of the largest companies in the world, producing much of the products we consume on a day-to-day basis. These include our meat and fish, fresh fruit and vegetables, alcohol, coffee, biscuits and everything in between.
To support this system of global food and beverage mass production, requires vast amounts of highly skilled engineers. Beyond the creation of the products, new process and machinery have to be developed and maintained, where environmental conditions vary wildly.
The control methods, environmental control and mechanical knowledge needed for the industry can be learnt by students on TecQuipment's advanced educational range of equipment. Browse through some of our specially selected ranges providing the knowledge for the future engineers of the food and drink industry.
