Terlet industrial process technology — batch systems, process vessels and thermal processing solutions
Terlet is a specialised manufacturer of industrial process technology for the food industry, focusing on process vessels, batch systems and thermal processing solutions. Terlet equipment is used for the production of sauces, soups, fruit preparations, baby food, jams, spreads, hummus and other liquid or high-viscosity products, where precise temperature control and gentle processing are essential.
Today, Terlet operates as part of the ProXES Group, while maintaining its own identity and strong focus on process engineering expertise.
Who is Terlet?
Terlet is a long-established specialist in process engineering and thermal food processing technology, with a strong reputation for robust machine design and reliable batch processing systems. The brand has a long history in developing solutions that combine efficient heat transfer with controlled mixing, supporting consistent product quality in industrial production environments.
As part of the ProXES Group, Terlet benefits from shared engineering knowledge while continuing to focus on its core technologies.
What does Terlet do?
Terlet designs and manufactures industrial processing systems for batch and semi-continuous food production. Their solutions support key production steps such as:
- mixing and agitation
- indirect heating and cooking
- indirect cooling and temperature reduction
- vacuum processing and deaeration
- homogenisation support
- integration into modular processing lines
Terlet machines are engineered to handle liquid, semi-liquid and high-viscosity products in a controlled and hygienic manner.
Terlet machines & product types
Process Vessels & Batch Systems
Terlet offers a wide range of process vessels designed for efficient batch production.
- Bottom-Driven Process Vessels
Designed for gentle mixing combined with indirect heating and cooling. Suitable for sauces, soups, stews and fillings. - MMR Mixing Vessels
Batch systems combining heating, cooling and mixing in a single vessel, optimised for efficient and repeatable processing. - Donut Cooker
A specialised cooking system designed for intensive thermal treatment and evaporation, particularly suited for fruit preparations, marmalades and concentrated products. - Large-Capacity Mixing Tanks
Engineered for industrial batch sizes with controlled agitation and stable thermal performance.
Thermal Processing & Heat Exchange Systems
Terlet provides advanced solutions for efficient thermal treatment:
- Fast Heat Exchange Units
Designed for rapid heating, cooling, pasteurisation and crystallisation with precise temperature control. - Integrated Heating & Cooling Systems
Flexible systems that adapt to product properties and process requirements.
These solutions support both batch and semi-continuous production processes.
Rapid Cooling Systems
- Terlocool Cooling System
A high-speed, homogeneous cooling solution that rapidly reduces product temperature after cooking.
Designed to preserve texture, flavour and product integrity while improving food safety and shelf life.
Modular & Turnkey Processing Lines
Terlet also supplies modular processing lines that combine multiple process steps into one integrated solution. These lines can include mixing, heating, cooling and process control in a single coordinated production flow, tailored to specific products and capacities.
How Terlet technology works
Terlet systems are engineered around proven process engineering principles:
- indirect heat transfer via jacketed vessels and optimised heat exchange surfaces
- gentle mechanical mixing to protect product structure
- precise temperature control throughout heating and cooling cycles
- rapid, homogeneous cooling to stabilise products after thermal treatment
- hygienic design for easy cleaning and reliable food safety compliance
These principles ensure consistent quality, efficient production cycles and high process reliability.
