Eggs are received, inspected and graded. Industrial quality checks may cover shell integrity, cleanliness, freshness and compliance with specifications.
Automated lines may include candling, crack detection and weight grading, depending on the intended product and facility.
Egg-breaking machines open the shells. The contents are processed as whole egg or separated into yolk and white according to the product.
Filtration removes potential shell particles, cooling supports controlled handling, and homogenisation helps create a consistent liquid product.
Controlled heat treatment reduces microbiological risk while protecting functional properties. Critical parameters and samples are monitored.
Liquid products are filled into suitable food-grade packaging, labelled and prepared for storage and distribution.
Depending on the product, egg ingredients may be frozen or spray dried to produce powdered egg products.
Finished products are stored under appropriate conditions. Batch records support traceability, while storage temperatures depend on product type.
Pasteurisation parameters are tailored to the type of egg product. Hygiene, cleaning procedures, sampling and batch traceability are essential to reliable food production.
