The experience I have today in the rendering industry can be best attributed to Roger Fletcher's guidance, mentoring and philosophies.
With Fletcher's expansion into Albany WA, I was thrilled to be involved in the set up of key production areas for the new abattoirs and rendering plant.
My excitement with the incorporation of PLC control to streamline the rendering process and help with operator time management, including automation of the cooking process, still drives me towards perfection in our industry today.
After a long seventeen year association with the Fletcher Group, an opportunity presented itself to team up with Keith Engineering Australia. My ten plus year role with Keith Engineering as Operations Adviser has added to my rendering by-products experience through plant audits, operator training, product sales, and plant design, which I share through, onsite training at your abattoirs facility or rendering plant site. The Keith experience has been crucial to my development in this industry and it has taken me to rendering plants in the USA, India, New Zealand and into most plants across Australia.
