Food & Beverage

Our unrivalled experience has led to our status as a proven and trusted consultant for the food processing industry.

The food and beverage processing industry is a dynamic and fast-moving sector, where high quality production plants and facilities are vital for maintaining strict profit margins, quality standards and health and safety regulations.

We count the likes of large-scale food manufacturers McVitie’s, Whitby Seafoods and 2 Sisters Food Group among our repeat clients who trust us to bring our extensive knowledge and experience to every project delivered as their consultant for the food processing industry.

FEG’s managers and engineers are experienced in setting up new processing facilities and moving existing facilities in the UK and Europe.

Meat & Poultry

This highly regulated sector calls for our specialist engineering and technical services to ensure BRC, TFMS and Environment Agency compliance.

Bread & Baking

With clients such as General Mills, United Biscuits and New York Bakery Co, we understand the specific technicalities of this industry such as explosion risk and temperature control.

Ready Meals & Freshly Prepared

Our understanding of this fast-moving and innovative sector is proven with clients such as 2 Sisters and Greencore.

Seafood

This dynamic sector faces unique outside influences from the social and political landscape. As an experienced consultant for the food processing industry we understand the concerns posed by Brexit, labour shortages and costs, overseas competition and automation challenges.

Agriculture & Cereal

We’ve built long-standing relationships with and are trusted by some of biggest names in cereal production, including Weetabix. Our team has an extensive understanding of the unique problems faced by the breakfast cereal industry, including a variety of grain sources such as whole grain, flour and meal.

Ingredients & Flavours

Changing consumer tastes, frequent regulatory changes and product innovations mean a highly-competitive and ever-changing sector. We offer a full suite of turnkey project management and production line design and build services to manufacturers of food additives, ingredients, spices and flavourings.

Confectionery & Snacks

This is a sector defined by changing customer habits and demand, with pressures from consumer groups to produce low-sugar, “healthy” products which meet environmental and ethical considerations. We’ve solved problems for multi-national snack manufacturers, including multi-million pound projects for McVitie’s, Jacob's and KP Snacks.

Odour control in food production

The problem of industrial odour is often one of the key challenges food producers face. We offer full odour control system design, including our specialist Liquid Contact Gas Scrubber, a bespoke system designed for use in high temperature frying environments.

The Environment Agency has strict guidelines on how production facilities must respond to odour management issues, however the range of plant odour abatement solutions available can be confusing and understanding the best way to solve a complex odour issue requires specialist knowledge.

We can provide support at every stage of the odour management journey – from initial consultations and planning to odour monitoring and abatement solutions.
