PIZZA TOPPING APPLICATORS

Waste less, produce more.

Our pizza topping applicators automate production and drastically reduce waste – down to 1% - to help frozen pizza manufacturers combat the rising costs of labor and ingredients.

We use our decades of experience and leading technology to apply cheese, IQF meats and vegetables, and dry ingredients accurately and evenly on your pizza topping line. Our border-free/target and waterfall models accommodate single lane to multi-lane, high-capacity operations.

In short, we help you make more pizzas and grow your business profitably.

Flexibility

Our applicators apply a range of pizza toppings, from cheese to IQF meat and vegetables, dry ingredients, and spices. Easily change out ingredients and recipes or run multiple machines on the line to get the variety you need.

Considering plant-based and analogue toppings? We use our decades of experience to optimize machine settings for vegan cheeses and meats.

Product Handling

Rake systems in our topping applicators “fluff” shredded cheese and toppings to improve application and distribution. An automated feed conveyor or recirculation system keeps your product and line running.

Our topping applicators are designed to give you high-quality presentation without rework. Toppings are applied evenly and accurately thanks to load cell technology. Be confident in applying toppings with size variability like crumbles and strips.
