Cat Biscuit Production
Improve your cat biscuit production lines with precise mixing, forming, baking, and cooling with machinery and process solutions from Premier Forrester.
Cat biscuits sit within the pet food category and demand a careful balance of nutrition, crunch, and shelf life.
For manufacturers, the practical issues are consistency and cost control at scale.
Our role is to join up method and machinery so that dough handling, bake profile, and cooling work together without surprises.
We make sure each line is engineered around your unique targets, footprint, utilities, and planned changeover windows, with room for future formats.
Cat biscuit production process
Production of cat biscuits begins with a dough of cereals, proteins, fats, and flavour components mixed to a stable consistency.
The dough is sheeted or rotary moulded and cut to uniform shapes for even baking. Ovens run with controlled temperature and airflow to dry the centre while managing colour.
Products then cool in stages so moisture can equilibrate and texture set. Where longer shelf life is required, a short post-bake drying step is added before inspection and packing.
Machinery for cat biscuit production
With zoned heat and managed airflow for even colour and moisture removal.
And optional final drying to stabilise texture and extend life at line speed.
Designed to protect the shape while maintaining high throughput.
Cat biscuit production - need to know
- Blockers and bottlenecks: Variable dough temperature or hydration leads to weight spread, cracking, or uneven colour. Tight control at mixing and forming reduces rework.
- Product variations: Small shapes, embossing, inclusions, or surface finishes need flexible tooling and adjusted oven profiles.
- Batch size: Short runs help trial seasonal or specialised products but raise unit cost. Longer campaigns reward stable recipes, disciplined cleaning, and predictable packing flow.
Talk to Premier Forrester about cat biscuit production
We design complete lines rather than isolated machines. Our team matches equipment to targets, then commissions the line so mixing, forming, baking, and cooling work in step.
With more than 25 years in food and pet food manufacturing, Premier Forrester helps producers design, configure, and support lines that run reliably. Our exceptional service team is also available to provide comprehensive after-sales support and advice.
If you are upgrading an existing setup or planning a new line, contact us today. We will help you choose a configuration that supports your output targets and delivers consistent returns.
