Challenge
The rise of peanut butter manufacturing in India began in the mid-2000s,largely fueled by export demand. From the very beginning, Ruparel Foods recognized a major challenge all peanut butter processors face—oil separation during production. Without precise control of exit temperature, texture and shelf life can quickly suffer. Determined to avoid this issue and make one of the best peanut butters in the world, Ruparel set out to find the ideal combination of ingredients, equipment and processes.As global demand surged, Ruparel also needed a solution capable of scaling production—reliably processing up to 100 metric tonnes per day—while minimizing downtime and maintenance.
Solution
Ruparel understood that making world-class peanut butter required more than just premium ingredients—it required the right technology. Determined to find the best solution, the company launched a global search for advanced processing equipment and traveled to the U.S.to identify the ideal heat exchanger. During this search, they visited a leading U.S. peanut butter manufacturer and discovered the Waukesha® Cherry-Burrell Votator® in action. The superior quality and consistency achieved with this equipment confirmed they had found the right solution.
