Klöckner Quality Bar/Aerated Masses

Confectionery producers throughout the world already for years value the strong plant competence of Klöckner Hänsel in the candy bar kitchen area. A proof for this are our excellent individual machines and line concepts, working reliably world-wide, allowing our customers an efficient production of high quality candy bar inlays of the most different kinds, on caramel, torrone or nougat basis, as well as of binding agents for granola bars.

Every plant is designed according to individual customer requirements and is composed of items of a vast delivery program. Our research and development engineers develop customer-specific plant concepts in order to ensure the economic success in the scope of the agreed range of services.

Klöckner Hänsel offers plants for the batchwise, semi-continuous or continuous production of aerated – also milky – candy bar masses on foam or granola basis, halwa, torrone or Nougat à la Montelimar.

Whatever the bar and torrone products our customers require: they can rely on receiving a high-quality and rational production solution.
