Expanding production capacity, replacing old equipment or automating new phases within an operating factory poses a very different challenge from designing a facility from scratch. The integration of machinery in a food plant, such as a cannery, requires working on…

In the canning industry, the initial stages of raw material treatment are decisive for ensuring a stable, hygienic, and efficient line. Among these, the descaling process for pelagic fish, such as sardines, plays a key role when the species and…

A common challenge in canning plants is reducing operator fatigue, minimizing sick leave, and maintaining a steady workflow, even during the phases with the highest manual intervention. In this context, ergonomics in food machinery has become a decisive factor in…

In the food industry, and in the canning industry in particular, energy efficiency is a driver of competitiveness, sustainability, and process optimization. In plants involving intensive thermal treatments, such as sterilization, pasteurization, or cooking, a significant part of the energy…

In 2026, the Spanish canning industry faces a landscape defined by international uncertainty, raw material supply challenges, rising costs, and the need to adapt to evolving consumer habits. At the same time, the sector continues to demonstrate strong resilience and…

Tuna cooking is one of the most critical stages within an industrial canning line. Key factors such as raw material yield, final loin quality, energy consumption, weight loss levels, and overall plant efficiency depend on this process. In practice, there…

In the canning industry, the quality of the final product is the result of a series of coordinated tasks and processes starting with the reception of raw materials. It all begins in the initial stages of the process. How the…

In the canned food industry, profitability doesn't begin with canning. It starts much earlier: at the reception, classification, and cutting of the tuna. These early stages determine the actual yield of the raw material, the stability of the process, and…

April will be a particularly significant month for Gaictech's international agenda. Our company will be exhibiting at two of the major trade fairs in the industrial and food calendar: Djazagro in Algiers and Seafood Expo Global in Barcelona. These international…

In the Ecoparc of Berrechid, in the Casablanca region, one of Morocco’s most ambitious and technologically advanced tuna canning plants is taking shape. Behind this project is Tunamax SARL and, as technology partner, Gaictech; an international specialist in industrial solutions…

In a canning factory, productivity is not solely dependent on machine capacity. It primarily relies on how the product, along with all associated elements, moves from its receipt at the plant to its exit as a sealed and sterilized can.…
