Meat, Seafood, and Poultry Processing Plant Design
Protein
Designing and building safe, automated meat and poultry facilities
Finding and retaining skilled labor is increasingly difficult in the protein sector, driving many processors to adopt automation solutions. Aging infrastructure not designed for today’s volumes or automation demands makes retrofitting and expansion complex and costly, and pathogen control remains a persistent challenge. Dennis Group brings specialized expertise to address these issues and more. Food safety specialists review facility designs to mitigate contamination risks. Controls engineers help determine the right level of automation for your operation. Process and packaging engineers develop efficient, high-throughput production lines, and our construction managers excel at executing surgical upgrades within operational facilities.
