Current thoughts on food and beverage processing
With very few exceptions, all food is processed in some form. Processing is what has given us safe, healthy, convenient, and affordable food available to everyone.
As a food processor, you are taking raw materials and creating edible food that is safe and nutritious to eat. In the meantime, the number of beverages available for consumption has skyrocketed, with a wide variety of concoctions from soda pop to alcoholic drinks to choose from.
There is one thing in common: everything is handled by your automated processing equipment. You do not have time for downtime and that is where Control Concepts comes in.
What controls do we service?
We service nearly any brand.
We can…
- Design
- Fabricate

…your custom solution anytime. You get a full manufacturer’s warranty on every panel installed.
We start with a personal consultation to understand your equipment and machinery. Then we analyze your manufacturing needs and consult on the best solution available to meet the demands of your vendors. We establish equipment electrical ratings, develop panel designs and electrical drawings, and build custom panels according to the approved design.
