Our Expertise

Serac and the Dairy Industry: A story that has lasted for over 50 years.

We started in June 1969 with the first weight filling machine for milk and have been the leading machine manufacturer for dairy products in rigid packaging since. We’d like to share a little history of Serac and the dairy industry worldwide, with a small showcase of different machines that we manufactured for a wide range of dairy products in various types of rigid packaging.

Liquid dairy products with varying degrees of microbiological sensitivity

We propose packaging machines for a wide variety of liquid dairy products with varying degrees of microbiological sensitivity, such as UHT milks, sterilized milks, pasteurized milks, ESL milks, flavored milks, drink yogurts, probiotics, liquid creams and whipped cream, soya milks…

Our machines are designed to be adapted to all types of plastic (PEHD, PET, PP, PS…), glass and metal bottles or containers.

Dairy products in preformed cups

We propose filling and sealing solutions for all types of pre-formed cup materials (PET, PP, PS, glass, aluminum, carton…) and various product properties (viscous, paste, foaming,… with pieces of fruit), yogurts, dessert creams, white cheeses, fresh creams, cheese spreads, ghee, rice pudding, baked-caramel cream, caramel cream, clafouti, custard …

 

Dairy bottle manufacturing

Serac has developed its range of machines with on-site bottle manufacturing solutions for PET (SBL and Combox for stretch blow molding). Serac also has vast experience and the technical know-how necessary to work hand-in-hand with manufacturers of extrusion blowing machines using PEHD granules. Based on your packaging ideas for your dairy products, Serac will study, together with you, your complete filling line project and propose appropriate solutions for your bottle.

Packaging decontamination

The container decontamination or sterilization method is selected according to the product to be filled and its microbiological sensitivity. Numerous factors need to be taken into account by the filling machine manufacturer.

Hygienic design

Deeply committed to food safety, Serac designs and manufactures food packaging machines in compliance with guidelines and sanitary rules edited by organizations (EHEDG, 3A, FDA…).  The hygienic design of the Serac UPFILL aseptic filling machine has been optimized:

  • In order to reduce disruption of the laminar airflow, only the absolute minimum number of elements remain in the filling zone
  • The turret has become very easy to clean with no retention zones
  • The CIP/SIP system is now totally automatic and requires no manual intervention
  • All electronic systems are isolated from the sterile zone and therefore accessible during production

 

“ We have a really strong strategic relationship with companies like Serac, who has been a great partner for us and I think that, especially in a year like this, it’s important to let them know just how instrumental they have been to our success. On behalf of Superior Dairy, I would like to thank them all. “
