At Reiser, our customers take an ingredients-first approach to pet food, so we do too. Whether you are looking to bring a new product to market, improve an existing one, automate your production and packaging process, or just assess your facilities production potential, Reiser has a solution for you. Our years of experience in food processing and packaging create a natural synergy to support opportunities in providing pet food solutions. We partner with pet food, treat, and ingredient manufacturers of all sizes to provide custom processing and packaging solutions designed to preserve product quality and integrity at every step of the way.

Consumer demand for complete proteins, whole inclusions, and visually appealing ingredients has led to tremendous growth in the pet food industry in recent years. Pet owners are less inclined to purchase massive bags of dry kibble or cans of unrecognizable ingredient mix. They are opting instead for, food-grade treats, supplements, and small servings of complete foods with limited, visually appealing ingredient inclusions. Pet food producers that feed our four-legged friends are, in turn, increasingly prioritizing recognizable whole ingredients in their recipes.

This evolution in pet food is here to stay, which is why I joined Reiser’s team of food processing and packaging experts after specializing in pet food ingredients for nearly three decades. I have worked extensively with companies looking for a way to produce a high-quality product using processes that can grow and evolve with their business. This is the essence of what Reiser offers—a dynamic, scalable approach with end-to-end possibilities in processing, producing, and packaging pet food solutions.

Customizing solutions around your pet food products

Creating custom solutions for your pet food company does not begin with the machines themselves, but rather, by getting to know your product. What types of ingredient forms are you using—fresh, frozen, raw, cooked, protein, starches, or something else? What physical form and journey do these products take through batching, processing, and packaging—blocks, chunks, dry, wet, liquid? What type of finished product are you creating—complete diets, supplements, treats, or a full product line? What degree of production flexibility and equipment interchangeability do you require?

At Reiser, we offer end-to-end technical support and equipment solutions for pet food companies of all sizes. We are able to support our customers’ ambitions from initial ingredient processing, batching, portioning, shaping, and all the way through packaging. We take the time to understand your current process, capabilities, current needs, and long-term goals to help you identify the right processing and packaging solutions to help you achieve them.

Maintaining ingredient integrity and portion control throughout pet food production and packaging

Custom solutions from Reiser are about so much more than just machines; they’re about offering flexibility in processing the ingredients that go into them. Pet parents are increasingly gravitating toward pet foods with whole proteins, vegetables, and other food-grade ingredients that sustain their visual appeal from processing through final presentation.

Maintaining ingredient integrity requires precision at every step of processing. Our grinding, mixing, and forming equipment is designed to maintain ingredient quality, consistency, and appearance and produce uniform, accurate portions.

Pet food processing and packaging requires machines designed with efficiency, accuracy, and sanitation in mind. Accurate portion control supports precise formulations that will meet the strict regulatory requirements for complete diets. The ability to change over types of equipment to tie into existing processing lines allows for flexibility and production efficiency, maximizing your potential production capacity. Stainless steel fabrication, production environment protected critical components, and food-grade industry standard design allows for fast yet thorough cleaning and rapid changeover between products.

Reducing labor costs and increasing output with custom solutions from Reiser

Processing and packaging pet food products manually can be extremely time consuming and labor intensive. This can, in turn, be an unnecessary expense for your operation that ultimately limits your throughput. Introducing even a small amount of automation into your processing and packaging can result in significant time and cost savings, as well as increased productivity. By making this one simple change to your operation, you can lower your costs while increasing productivity and efficiency, all without sacrificing the quality of your products.

We can even customize solutions for your pet food company

There is no one-size-fits-all solution for pet food manufacturers, especially with the rise in demand for customizable products. That’s why we ensure that solutions for pet food companies are versatile, adaptable, and can handle multiple aspects of your operation.
