A focus on chocolate: our uniquely collaborative approach has set us apart in the market for more than thirty years. The result? Machinery and service that exceed expectations. You can expect your PTL chocolate and bar machinery to deliver enhanced efficiency and profit with fast changeovers, agile features, and hygienic design.
The innovative designs of our grid melters are based on 35 years of working alongside multinationals and co-manufacturers all over Canada and the US. The machinery’s flexibility, speed and compact size uniquely position customers to increase production, lower costs, and be more agile.
Improve efficiency – our revolutionary design delivers instant melting and continuous process supply to increase downstream production.
Self-contained, portable, and compact – your melter can be located next to the use-point to avoid long pipe runs and large tanks.
Add to your SKUs, not your downtime, with a removable melt grid, wash-down design, excellent allergen management, and fast, simple cleaning.
Get equipment designed to solve your issues, tailored to your existing lines, facility, and workflow, backed by our three decades of experience.
From melting and cooling to enrobing and molding, our machines achieve consistent results that let manufacturers create exceptional chocolate products. With PTL's continuous innovations like removable parts and easy cleaning, the possibilities for chocolate production are endless, and the future looks sweet.
Surprisingly, even though bitter drinking chocolate was much more popular with Americans, they weren't responsible for solid chocolate. Read about the deliciously rich history of chocolate.
One significant addition to your equipment line-up will be a tempering machine. Unlike compound chocolate, which doesn’t require tempering, real chocolate needs to go through this crucial process to achieve the desired texture, gloss, and snap.
Tailored solutions at scale — hygienic, flexible, and proven. These clients have experienced the difference through increased productivity, efficiency, and capacity.
