Industrial Equipment Manufacturer Since 1945

Engineered for Real-World Production Environments

Application-first systems designed for industries where reliability, flow control, and integration matter.

Matthiesen Equipment serves production environments that cannot afford disruption. From packaged ice and poultry to charcoal and soil, each industry presents unique material challenges, layout constraints, and throughput demands.

Our approach stays consistent: understand the operation first, then engineer equipment to match.

Packaged Ice Equipment Since 1945

Matthiesen Equipment has supported the packaged ice industry for nearly eight decades. From small producers operating a few tons per day to high-volume facilities exceeding 400+ tons, our systems are engineered to manage moisture, flow transitions, and consistent bagging performance. Ice presents unique handling challenges. Melt management, controlled discharge, reliable transfer between processes, and consistent packaging output all require thoughtful engineering.

We design systems to:

Manage ice flow without bridging or inconsistent feed
Integrate cleanly with existing production layouts
Support scalable production growth
Maintain dependable bagging performance
Operate within limited plant footprints

Whether upgrading an aging line or building new capacity, our goal is steady, predictable performance.

Poultry

Poultry Product Chilling & Ice Metering Systems

Poultry facilities require equipment that integrates smoothly across departments while maintaining consistent material flow and practical maintenance access. Matthiesen ice metering and distribution for poultry processing systems are engineered to move ice and product efficiently within sanitary and high-demand environments. Our systems support steady feed rates, reduce bottlenecks, and integrate within existing facility layouts

Key considerations include:

Our role is to support operational efficiency without adding unnecessary complexity.

Bird Seed

Flexible Handling for Multi-Product Operations

Bird seed production often involves multiple blends, material densities, and packaging formats. Equipment must accommodate variation while maintaining consistency. Matthiesen provides bucket elevators, screw conveyors, belt conveyors, and packaging systems engineered to:

The focus is operational reliability across changing product runs.

Charcoal

Volumetric Bagging Built for Material Variability

Charcoal production introduces challenges including inconsistent material density, dust management, and rugged operating conditions.

Matthiesen volumetric bagging systems are engineered to:

Systems are designed for practical automation — delivering throughput without unnecessary overengineering.

Soil

Durable Systems for Bulk Material Handling

Soil and potting mix operations require conveying and packaging systems capable of managing bulk materials efficiently.

Matthiesen equipment is engineered to:

Durability and long-term serviceability are built into each system.
