CANTEK Meat Systems

MEAT-FOCUSED COOLING

In meat processing, cooling is where profits are either protected — or silently lost.

Cantek is aware that cooling stands at the core of meat processing and directly drives profitability.

Under the Cantek Group umbrella, we operate a dedicated cooling technologies business unit that works hand in hand with our meat engineering teams as a core production discipline. This structure strengthens us to translate refrigeration theory directly into meat-specific performance
on the slaughter floor, in chilling tunnels, and inside cold rooms.

Our focus is clear: maximum shelf life with minimal weight loss.

Extended Chilled Shelf Life Built Into the Design

Through precise engineering, equipment selection, and technology calculations tailored to carcass physiology, we deliver up to 30 days of fresh chilled carcass shelf life.

This is achieved by controlling:

  • Air velocity and distribution
  • Temperature gradients across the carcass surface
  • Relative humidity balance
  • Cooling curves aligned with rigor mortis behavior

This approach preserves surface quality, color stability, and core temperature uniformity throughout the chilling cycle. Shelf life becomes a controlled parameter of the process.

Yield Protection Through
Low Shrink

Weight loss during chilling directly impacts revenue. While global industry tolerance often accepts up to 5% cooling shrink, our systems operate at a controlled 0.7–0.8% shrink level.

We achieve this through:

  • Optimized evaporation control
  • Balanced airflow design avoiding surface dehydration
  • Accurate load calculations per species and carcass size
  • Cooling sequences designed for yield preservation

More product weight reaches dispatch, directly strengthening commercial returns.
