Our strengths
Why Kalt Cheese technology?
PATENTED
Innovation in Cheese Press Technology
As a pioneer in the cheese industry, Kalt was the first company to introduce both the curd-washing press and the cassette press, setting new standards in automated cheese production. These patented pressing technologies stand for maximum efficiency, process reliability, and consistently high product quality – underscoring Kalt’s commitment to innovation to this day.
Flexible
Versatility Through Multi-Batch Operation
Our multi-batch process enables flexible production workflows and adapts optimally to different recipes, cheese sizes, and production requirements. This allows cheesemakers to benefit from maximum adaptability while maintaining consistently high efficiency.
COST-EFFICIENT
Maximum Profitability
Higher yields can be achieved with our systems. A key contribution comes from press moulds made of stainless Conidur®, specially manufactured to Kalt’s specifications. Unlike the plastic moulds widely used throughout the industry, they provide ideal conditions for an efficient pressing process.
Cheese dairy 4.0
