food processing
Food processing represents a demanding and unique area of the business. Hygiene standards within the food industry require careful and precise attention. A specialist approach is required when selecting the right pump for the application. At Panks we recognise the importance of getting it right and can provide on-site assessment from supply of new, review of existing or repair of used product. We pride ourselves and align ourselves with supply partners who can achieve high levels of quality and hygiene.

The food and drink industry accounts for 3.5% of the East of England's economy.
The East of England is the UK's principal producer of wheat, barley and oats and is an important producer of peas, potatoes and pigs. The vast bulk of the UK's sugar beet is grown and processed in the East of England and a high proportion of the country's vegetable crop is grown and frozen in the region. We take pride in supporting this economy and aim to serve it efficiently and responsibly.
