Food Processing Solutions

Food and baking manufacturers face increasingly complex production challenges—from ingredient variability and evolving consumer expectations to strict food safety requirements and pressure to improve efficiency. Every pump and mixer in your facility plays a direct role in product quality, consistency, and overall throughput.

Fristam delivers hygienic pumping and mixing solutions engineered specifically for food processors handling a wide range of viscosities, textures, ingredients, and process conditions. Whether you’re moving smooth purées, aerated sauces, sticky doughs, or chunky formulations, Fristam equipment brings the reliability and control needed to keep production running efficiently.

Engineered for a Wide Variety of Food Applications

Fristam offers a full portfolio of sanitary centrifugal pumps, positive displacement pumps, shear blenders, powder dissolvers, and twin screw pumps, all designed to help processors overcome common food manufacturing challenges.

Our equipment supports the full spectrum of food applications, including:

Soups, Sauces & Gravies

Fristam pumps deliver smooth, gentle transfer of products with variable viscosity, ensuring uniform texture without damaging particulates such as vegetables, spices, or inclusions.

Baking & Dough Handling

From thick masa dough and batter systems to high-solids mixes, Fristam pumps move dense, sticky products with stable, consistent flow while maintaining product structure.

Fruit, Tomato & Vegetable Processing

High-viscosity tomato paste, fruit preparations, vegetable purées, and textured blends benefit from Fristam’s low-shear handling and ability to maintain particle integrity.

Prepared Foods & Meal Components

Fristam solutions support the transfer and blending of fillings, emulsions, meat blends, starch systems, and cooked ingredients commonly used in entrees and ready-to-eat meals.

Powders, Gums & Stabilizers

Fristam mixing and powder incorporation technologies help producers hydrate and disperse powders quickly and uniformly—reducing clumping, improving texture, and shortening batch times.

High-Pressure & CIP Applications

Fristam centrifugal and PD pumps are engineered for high-pressure environments such as filtration, cooking systems, and viscous product transfer, while maintaining full CIP cleanability.

Built for Hygienic, Efficient Food Production

Processors depend on equipment that can withstand constant washdown, temperature changes, and demanding production schedules. Fristam pumps and mixers are constructed from stainless steel for durability, cleanability, and hygienic operation.

Designed, manufactured, assembled, and tested in Middleton, Wisconsin, Fristam provides long-term value through advanced engineering, robust construction, and responsive technical support. From concept to installation and ongoing service, Fristam delivers reliable performance throughout the entire lifecycle of your equipment.

Featured Product: FDS Twin Screw Pump

The Fristam FDS Twin Screw Pump is a versatile solution for food processors requiring gentle handling, CIP cleanability, and the ability to manage a wide range of viscosities—all with the same pump.

The FDS is ideal for:

• Soups, sauces, and gravies
• Tomato paste, fruit fillings, and vegetable mixtures
• Sticky, high-viscosity doughs and batters
• Products containing particulates or inclusions
• Aerated, shear-sensitive, or emulsified formulations

Its low-shear twin screw design protects ingredient integrity, maintains particulate structure, and provides smooth process flow. Additionally, the FDS functions as both a process pump and a CIP pump, reducing piping complexity and eliminating the need for a secondary pump—saving valuable time, space, and operational cost.
