How FABON Engineering’s Biomass Pellet Burner Helps the Food Manufacturing Industry
India’s food manufacturing industry runs heavily on heat-based processes — frying, roasting, steaming, boiling, baking, drying, and dehydration.
From namkeen factories and sweet production units to bakeries, spice roasting plants, noodle factories, RTE food units, and milk processing, consistent and economical heat is the backbone of production.
As LPG and diesel prices continue to rise, the search for a high-temperature, cost-saving, and eco-friendly heating solution has led industries to adopt FABON Engineering’s Biomass Pellet Burners.
Designed for 20-hour operation, engineered with heavy-duty construction, and optimized for maximum thermal efficiency, FABON pellet burners are revolutionizing heat generation in food manufacturing plants across India.
1. Massive Fuel Cost Reduction for Food Factories
Food industries operate continuously, meaning fuel contributes heavily to monthly production costs.
Fuel Cost Comparison
-
LPG: ₹90–120/kg
-
Diesel: ₹85–100/litre
-
Biomass Pellets: ₹8–12/kg
Direct Savings: 60–70%
A typical namkeen factory using LPG spends ₹3–5 lakh/month on energy.
Switching to FABON pellet burners brings this down to ₹1–1.5 lakh/month, generating ₹20–40 lakh annual savings.
2. High Temperature (800–1100°C) for Industrial Food Processing
Food manufacturing requires controlled and high-temperature heat for long periods.
FABON pellet burners are engineered to deliver:
-
800°C to 1100°C flame temperature
-
Fast heating response
-
Stable continuous heat
-
Full control over flame intensity
-
Perfect for frying, roasting, baking & drying
Ideal for:
-
Namkeen frying
-
Bhujia, gathiya & extruded snacks
-
Sweets (boiling, chashni, ghee heating)
-
Steam generation
-
Dehydration plants
-
Bakery ovens
-
Spice roasting & masala plants
-
Dal mills (roasting & drying)
