Production line features

Chips and crackers are snacks made from wheat flour and corn flour, which are extruded, cut and then fried. The main raw materials are wheat flour, corn flour, water, vegetable oil and salt. After frying and flavouring, very crunchy triangle or other shaped chips are obtained, popular with both children and adults. Only by changing the moulds, shaping or cutting machine, the shapes can vary: sticks, square sheets, rib chips, diamond chips, wavy chips, pillow shapes, bugles and more. The taste is savoury and not greasy.
