Thanks to more than seventy years of industry experience, Thayer Scale’s engineers can tackle even the most difficult bulk-material processing challenges. We continually update and refine our equipment, based upon our customers’ needs, to ensure it will exceed the pet food industry’s stringent, evolving requirements for sanitation and safety.

Our Hygienic Weigh Feeder provides brand protection and reputation integrity for pet food manufacturers. It is designed to provide enhanced pet food safety with hygienic, accurate and repeatable flow rate measurement and control solution for premium pet food. Thayer Scale’s food-safe metering solutions preserve the natural appearance of inclusions. The vibratory Loss-In-Weight feeder gently meters a broad range of inclusions with fragile or asymmetrical particle shapes to provide reliable, pulse-free discharge.
