Services
Food Facilities Engineering's 30+ years experience in the planning, engineering and construction management of Food Services, Institutional, Food Processing and Grocery Distribution facilities and considers itself uniquely qualified to work as an extensionn of most companies in the food industry. We feel confident making this claim because we have previously planned and designed millions of square feet of such facilities for U.S., Canada and Latin American wholesalers and retailers.
Our planners, architects, engineers and construction professionals, who will contribute to the study, represent the top minds in the processing and distibution design industry. Our expertise and commitment is evident through the productive, low maintenance, energy efficient and profitable facilities our clients operate. In paticular, we would like to point out:
Planning for Efficient Operations - Our engineers are qualified to analyze operations for elimination of unnecessary work and reducing the cost for necessary work. As a result of our diverse experience throughout the food industry, FFE has developed many industry innovations such as Alernating Push Back and Selection (APBS) rack system, forced air banana ripening, new consumer packaging and refrigeration system control.
Accurate Plant Sizing - Our industrial engineering and material-handling department consists of degreed engineers, certified material-handling experts and veteran processing facility management. As a design tool, we have developed the one of most advanced facility sizing programs in the industry. FFE can size your plant expansion to a specific design year. A material-handling analysis with process flow diagram for your project can also be provided.
Coordinated Detailed Design - Food Facility Engineering employs all disciplines in-house including process engineering, industrial engineering, material-handling design, architectural, mechanical, electrical, fire protection, process, computer controls and refrigeration engineering.
Coordination of Cost Efficient Construction - Our project management and construction management departments possess the experience gained by managing the remodeling and construction of many million square feet of processing distribution, and frozen food facilities nationwide. Cost estimates and constructability analysis generated through planning studies draw upon this history and pricing database.
Experience with Similar Facilities - We have completed studies, master plans, engineering design, construction specifications and/or provided various levels of construction support on many projects including:
