Batch-to-Continuous

Adapting to Your Changing Needs

If you are looking to make a small amount of product for field testing or product trials, batch processing may be just what you need; but when your needs increase, you’ll want a custom manufacturer that can also handle large quantities efficiently and cost-effectively.

At Dow Haltermann Custom Processing, we can respond quickly to your changing needs by offering both batch and continuous processing. Continuous processing is more cost effective for processing larger quantities due to equipment productivity. It also often leads to a better product, as the continuous flow of material in and out of the processing equipment eliminates batch-to-batch variations in the product quality and prevents byproduct formation. Dow Haltermann is an expert in converting batch processes to continuous processes.

Dow Haltermann participates in joint development projects with our customers, utilizing our research and development facilities and computer simulation technology to determine the best processing options for their products.
