Pet Food & Treats

We create facilities where the future of pet food is now.

As demand for premium, traceable pet nutrition continues to rise, purpose-built facilities are essential to staying competitive. Haskell specializes in designing and constructing advanced pet food manufacturing environments that prioritize safety, efficiency and flexibility.

Our designs support product variety, hygienic standards and food safety compliance.

From dry kibble and canned meals to freeze-dried and functional products, our solutions support complex formulations and varied production methods. Hygienic zoning, ingredient segregation and clean-in-place (CIP) systems are integrated to meet the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) and global food safety standards. Advanced processing and hygienic design features further enhance safety, flexibility and compliance.

Strategic collaboration and scalable execution drive long-term performance.

Our team collaborates closely with OEMs to optimize process flow, extrusion, packaging and utility systems for maximum uptime and throughput. Whether expanding production capacity or upgrading aging infrastructure, Haskell’s integrated design-build model streamlines execution, minimizes risk and supports long-term operational performance. With proven experience in both greenfield and brownfield environments, we help pet food manufacturers confidently meet evolving consumer expectations by delivering efficient, scalable facilities tailored to the science and care behind every product.

Ingredient Prep, Intermediate Storage & Receiving

Haskell designs ingredient handling and storage systems that support hygienic zoning and segregation, ensuring traceability and compliance with FSMA and global food safety standards.

CIP/SIP Systems, Process Skids & Installation

We integrate clean-in-place (CIP) and steam-in-place (SIP) systems into process skids with hygienic design, enabling safe, efficient cleaning and seamless installation to support uptime and regulatory compliance.

Mixing, Grinding & Extrusion

Through strategic OEM collaboration, Haskell engineers extrusion and processing systems that accommodate complex formulations and deliver consistent product quality across a range of pet food types.

Batching, Dosing & Flavor Systems

Our team delivers precision batching and dosing systems for liquids and flavors, enabling consistent palatability and product differentiation in a scalable, food-safe environment.

Baking, Drying & Cooling

Haskell designs and implements baking, drying, coating and cooling systems that optimize throughput while preserving nutritional integrity, with hygienic features that ensure product quality and safety across traditional and functional pet food lines.

Sterilization & Preservation Technologies

Haskell integrates sterilization technologies such as retort and HPP, along with freeze-dried and air-dried processing capabilities, into facility designs that support food safety, shelf life and the nutritional integrity of premium, minimally processed products.

Primary Packaging: Pouch, Bag, Chub & Can Systems

We design flexible packaging lines for various formats, ensuring efficient, sanitary operations that align with brand and market demands.

Secondary Packaging: Case Packers, Erectors, Palletizers & Wrappers

Haskell integrates end-of-line automation to streamline packaging, reduce labor costs and improve throughput, all within a scalable, hygienic framework.
