Revolutionizing Operational Efficiency
CapTemp's Solution Transforms Panicongelados' Quality Assurance and Monitorings
Panicongelados, founded in 1994 under the brand PANIDOR, sought to maintain the traditional characteristics of its deep-frozen bakery products while incorporating innovation and modern technology for mass production. With operations spanning across Portugal and Brazil, and exporting to 26 countries, they faced the challenge of ensuring consistent product quality and food safety standards across their extensive network.
Choosing CapTemp was driven by several factors, including an IPQ-approved system, geographical proximity, and positive references. The initial installation focused on online monitoring of process and storage temperatures, complemented by an alarm system. Recognizing the need for more comprehensive environmental control, Panicongelados opted to implement additional sensors, particularly humidity probes, to enhance control over process parameters affecting product quality and food safety. Moreover, CapTemp's flexibility allowed for the integration of monitoring systems for other critical quantities such as energy, water, and compressed air, further optimizing operational efficiency.
The implementation of CapTemp's solution resulted in significant business impact for Panicongelados. They achieved enhanced prevention in maintaining the cold chain, leading to integrated cold chain management and improved energy consumption of cooling systems. Real-time monitoring of process parameters such as temperature and humidity facilitated better production processes, while eliminating the need for manual temperature recording on paper. Moreover, the remote access capability of CapTemp's monitoring system provided real-time alerts, ensuring prompt action through an automatic notification system for maintenance and quality assurance.
