Processing and packaging equipment company Tna has appointed a new group product manager - processing to head up the company's expanding processing portfolio.

 

Carel Pfaff, formerly of food processing companies like Kiremko and Haas-Mondomix, will be based in TNA’s Woerden facility in the Netherlands.

 

Pfaff will be responsible for the company’s entire processing portfolio, including its FOODesign and Florigo frying technology.

 

He will work closely with TNAs engineers and global sales team to further develop the company’s processing portfolio, capabilities and services, according to the company.

 

“The processing side of our business has grown exponentially over the last few years,” TNA's chief sales officer Peter Oussoren said.

 

“There is particularly high demand for our innovative frying technology as manufacturers are starting to see the long-term benefits this type of equipment can have on their overall profitability levels.

 

“With his technical expertise, engineering skills and customer service experience, Carel will be instrumental in finding the right solutions for all of our customers’ needs.”
