Maintaining sanitary conditions is a prime concern for commercial milk processors. This includes maintaining clean equipment and promoting sanitary practices for employees working directly with milk products and our milk producers have long since developed successful practices to maintain these critical requirements.
The answer to maintaining the final milk and milk product quality, such as cheese, butter and yogurt, is found in the use of milk strainers and filters. It is in this area that producers turn to Newark Wire Cloth for their expertise and design capabilities. Newark Wire Cloth partners with our milk producers to design and produce strainers to satisfy the size, flow and filtration needs of their process.
