CEO of TECAU
With decades of expertise in stainless steel engineering, TECAU offers cutting-edge solutions for the food processing industry, combining precision, reliability, and hygiene. Known for its strong focus on customization and innovation, the company supports clients with tailor-made machinery that meets both technical needs and strict industry regulations.
In this interview, TECAU shares how its technologies, design philosophy, and commitment to sustainability make a real difference on production lines around the world.
What are the core technologies that differentiate TECAU’s stainless steel solutions for the food processing industry?
TECAU distinguishes itself through the development of advanced stainless steel machinery, specifically engineered to meet the rigorous demands of the food processing sector. Our solutions are built with hygiene, durability, and user-friendliness at their core.
Each machine features a robust structure, easy-to-clean surfaces, and intuitive controls that simplify day-to-day operations while ensuring full compliance with international food safety standards. We are particularly recognized for our automated machines for ham processing, including skinning and slicing systems. These machines stand out for their precision, operational speed, and consistency— delivering optimal performance even in high-demand environments.
How do you support your customers in designing customized equipment for hygienic and safe production environments?
At TECAU, we believe that customization is key to effective food processing. We start each project by carefully analyzing the client’s specific requirements, operational workflow, and environmental constraints.
Based on this in-depth understanding, we design and engineer bespoke machines that integrate smoothly into existing production lines. Our team works closely with customers throughout the entire development process, ensuring that each piece of equipment not only meets hygiene and safety regulations but also enhances productivity and ease of maintenance. By aligning technology with real-world production needs, we help clients build efficient, clean, and safe facilities tailored to their exact processes.
In your experience, what are the most common challenges food processors face when it comes to materials handling, and how does TECAU address them?
One of the main challenges in food processing is optimizing materials handling without compromising hygiene, efficiency, or product integrity. Many producers struggle with issues like reducing product waste, improving throughput, lowering operational costs, and maintaining high safety standards.
TECAU tackles these challenges by providing high-performance, automated solutions designed to improve production flow and ensure consistent output. Our machines are engineered to reduce manual intervention, minimize waste, and enhance yield—ultimately helping processors cut costs and boost efficiency. The result is a more streamlined operation that supports competitiveness and longterm profitability.
How is sustainability integrated into your production processes and the lifecycle of your machinery?
For TECAU, sustainability is not a trend—it’s a fundamental design principle. Our machines are conceived to combine operational excellence with environmental responsibility. First, we reduce product loss through precision-engineered components that minimize handling errors and maximize processing efficiency.
Second, we use high-efficiency motors and energysaving components that significantly lower power consumption across the machinery’s lifecycle.
Third, our designs aim to simplify maintenance, reduce downtime, and speed up cleaning operations—thereby cutting water and detergent usage. By integrating sustainable practices into every phase, from design to daily operation, TECAU machines support not only the profitability of our clients but also their environmental goals.
