SEEPEX has developed advanced pumping technology that can cut food waste volume by up to 60 percent, and the company is opening its doors to industry professionals through a dedicated webinar on March 21, 2024.
Food waste management remains one of those stubborn operational headaches that costs businesses far more than it should. Whether you are running a large-scale food processing plant or managing commercial kitchen operations, the logistics of moving waste safely, hygienically and affordably never seem to get easier. SEEPEX, a recognized leader in progressive cavity pump technology, has spent years engineering systems specifically designed to tackle this challenge. Now the company is inviting professionals from across the food industry to see exactly how its solutions work in practice.
Webinar
21 March at 11-12 or 15-16 CET
Efficient Management of Food Waste and By-products
Two sessions are scheduled for Thursday, March 21, 2024: one from 11 am to 12 pm CET and a second from 3 pm to 4 pm CET. The webinar, titled "Efficient Handling of Food Waste and By-Products," will walk attendees through the company's latest innovations in maceration, grinding and enclosed pumping systems. These are not generic industrial pumps adapted for food waste. They have been purpose-built to handle the specific demands of organic waste streams, from soft vegetable matter to denser by-products that clog conventional equipment.
Keynote speakers include Damian Clifford, Commercial Leader at SEEPEX UK, and Peter Irwin, Northern Area Sales Manager. Both bring extensive field experience and a practical understanding of the pain points food producers face daily. Their presentation will focus on real-world applications rather than theoretical concepts, showing how SEEPEX systems integrate into existing production lines and deliver measurable improvements in both efficiency and hygiene.
Attendees can expect to learn about the benefits of SEEPEX's food waste pumping technology:
- Replaces manual transfer between high-care and low-risk areas
- Enclosed pipework system ensures hygienic waste removal
- Up to 60% waste volume reduction
- Lower disposal costs
- Energy-efficient compared to traditional methods
- Pumps suitable for Clean-in-Place (CIP) or Sterilize-in-Place (SIP)
- Produces ideal feedstock for other applications
- Improved health and safety standards
What makes these systems particularly relevant right now is the convergence of regulatory pressure and cost awareness. Food producers across Europe and beyond face tightening environmental regulations around waste disposal, while energy costs continue to squeeze margins. A solution that simultaneously reduces waste volume, cuts energy consumption and improves workplace safety addresses all three pressures at once. The fact that the processed waste can serve as feedstock for anaerobic digestion or animal feed applications only adds to the value proposition.
"We are excited to host this webinar and share our expertise in efficient food waste management with industry professionals," says Damian Clifford. "SEEPEX's solutions offer a sustainable and cost-effective approach to handling food waste, benefiting both businesses and the environment."
The enclosed pipework design deserves particular attention. In environments where cross-contamination between high-care and low-risk zones is a constant concern, eliminating manual waste transfer removes a significant vector for contamination. For operations that already maintain strict hygiene protocols, this approach reduces the labor burden while actually improving safety outcomes.
