ProXES — advanced process technology group for liquid, viscous and semi-solid food products
ProXES is an international process technology group specialising in mixing, emulsifying, dispersing, homogenising, thermal processing and batch systems for the food industry. The group brings together several highly specialised brands, each with deep expertise in a specific segment of food processing, allowing ProXES to deliver complete, integrated process solutions for liquid, viscous and semi-solid products.
ProXES technologies are widely used in the production of sauces, dressings, spreads, hummus, soups, baby food, fruit preparations, dairy products and other value-added foods where precise process control is essential.
Who is ProXES?
ProXES is a technology-driven group focused on process engineering rather than single machines. By combining multiple specialised brands under one umbrella, ProXES supports food manufacturers from ingredient preparation to finished product, offering both stand-alone machines and fully integrated processing systems.
The group’s philosophy is built around process understanding, product quality, repeatability and scalability, making ProXES a preferred partner for industrial food producers worldwide.
The strength of ProXES as a group
The key strengths of ProXES include:
- Complementary brand portfolio covering different process steps
- Deep process engineering expertise for complex products
- Ability to deliver complete systems, not just individual machines
- Strong focus on batch and semi-continuous processing
- Precise control of texture, temperature and product stability
- Scalable solutions from pilot to industrial production
By combining mechanical processing with thermal and vacuum technologies, ProXES delivers highly consistent and reproducible product quality.
ProXES brands & their core specialisations
FrymaKoruma
Specialist in homogenising, dispersing, emulsifying and refining technologies. FrymaKoruma systems are used to produce smooth, stable products such as sauces, dressings, hummus and spreads, often with vacuum and thermal control.
Stephan
Expert in high-shear mixing, cutting and emulsifying, particularly for fine processing applications. Stephan machines are widely used where intensive mechanical action and precise control are required for emulsions, pastes and finely structured products.
Terlet
Specialist in process vessels, batch systems and thermal processing solutions. Terlet focuses on cooking, heating, cooling and mixing of liquid and high-viscosity products such as soups, sauces, fruit preparations and baby food, with strong emphasis on gentle processing and temperature accuracy.
Together, these brands cover a broad range of process requirements, from raw ingredient preparation to final product conditioning.
What does ProXES do?
ProXES designs and delivers process solutions that support:
- mixing and agitation
- emulsifying and homogenising
- dispersing of solids in liquids
- thermal processing (heating, cooking, cooling)
- vacuum processing and deaeration
- batch and semi-continuous production
- integration into automated process lines
Their systems are engineered for food safety, hygiene, efficiency and repeatability, supporting industrial production environments.
How ProXES process technology works
ProXES solutions are based on controlled process parameters:
- precise mechanical energy input
- accurate temperature management
- defined residence times
- gentle product handling where required
- robust process vessels and hygienic design
By controlling these parameters, ProXES enables manufacturers to achieve consistent texture, flavour and stability, even for complex formulations.
Industries and applications
ProXES technologies are used across a wide range of food sectors, including:
- sauces and condiments
- dressings and emulsions
- hummus, dips and spreads
- soups and ready meals
- fruit preparations and fillings
- baby food and nutritional products
- dairy and plant-based alternatives
Their systems are particularly suited for products where viscosity, stability and texture are key quality drivers.
