Review
VakuumDay 2024 with a visit to a system in productive operation
Date: October 22, 2024, 13:00-16:30
Location: Jacques Gabriel AG Bakery, Spielhof 15, 8750 Glarus
Content: Specific and directly applicable know-how from experienced industry experts
The VacuumDay expert seminar was a perfect mix of exciting presentations, live production sequences, sinpiring discussions and the tasting of vacuum-cooled product samples.
Everything centred around the rapid cooling of baked goods and foodstuffs in a vacuum chamber and the associated decisive advantages for operations, production processes and product quality. The operation, financing and procurement of the system were also explained at first hand. A tour of the plant, a tasting of impressive sample products and an intensive dialogue between experts rounded off the successful event.
We would like to thank Jacques Gabriel AG, CF-Enterprises GmbH, the employees of Glavatec and all participants for this thoroughly successful event. We are already looking forward to the continuation of this successful VacuumDay seminar series next year.
VakuumDay
In cooperation with IGV-GmbH and the Vereinigung der Backbranche e.V. (Berlin/Brandenburg regional group), we organize an annual specialist seminar on the latest developments and experiences from research and industry on vacuum cooling technology, which is prominently reported on in the magazine «Backtechnik Europe», for example. The specialist seminar has also successfully established itself as an exchange platform for vacuum cooling users. Glavatec also supervises and supports bachelor's and master's theses on the subject of vacuum cooling.
