Metal Finishing

Mepaco, part of the Apache Stainless family, offers mechanical and chemical finishing in-house. Many customers request our high-performance finishes to reduce food safety risk and to create sanitation efficiencies.

The type of food product, bacterial count, manufacturing function, and sanitation procedures all have an impact on the requirements of equipment finishes.

Electropolished food contact surfaces are commonly included in Mepaco’s cookers, mixers, pump feeders, vacuum stuffers, screw conveyors and inside chutes of dumping equipment. Agitators, shafts, and augers can also be electropolished, to treat the entire food contact surface. Electropolishing services are offered in-house by experienced technicians; there is no dependency on outsourcing.
