Bimbo’s power plant located in Azuqueca de Henares (Guadalajara) has two tin loaf production lines, one of which produces 120 units per minute and the other one, 360. The company also produces other types of bread, such as rustic bread or cereals, reaching a production of more than 60,000 tons of bread per year.

This factory has a surface area of 30,000 square metres in the ‘Miralcampo’ industrial estate and has the largest tin loaf production capacity in the world. Among its features, it is worth highlighting its commitment to technology and innovation and the implementation of sustainability tools that promote energy and water savings in its processes.

Currently, IDEA has extensive experience in food processing plants after developing several projects within the agri-food sector. We strive for a 100% optimised design, always ensuring the top quality and safety of our clients’ facilities.
