COMPANY INFO...
Belourthe is a state of the art cereals processing factory, located in Hamoir, in the heart of the beautiful Ardennes region, in Belgium.
Before 2005
Until 2005 the factory belonged to Nestlé, and was Nestlé’s biggest cereal processing site in Europe.
As from 2006
In the beginning of 2006, thanks to a “management buy- out” operation, Belourthe took over the factory, and became a 100% independent company, which is run now by two of the directors of the former Nestlé’s factory.
These events place Belourthe in a position that is unique in the whole world. We are an independent cereals manufacturer having the technology, the equipment and the formulations knowledge as to deliver cereal products with the very same quality of the world’s leader!
More about Belourthe:
State of the art technology on mixing, drying and filling.
Belourthe is the only independent cereals plant with the technology to deliver products with the same quality as of the world’s market leader.
Belourthe’s high-quality cereals are produced in a state of the art manufacturing complex, including rapid mixing and drying equipment and fully automated packaging.
Consumer safety and full compliance with the European norms are our priorities.
The following is a summary of the main industrial processes handled in our plant.
Production
Hydrolyzation
Belourthe is probably one of the only independent factories in the world with the capability of delivering production-scale hydrolyzed cereals.
This process enables to optimize the organoleptical qualities of the product, facilitates the digestion and adds natural sweetness (obtaining sweet cereals without addition of sugar)Wet mixing
We run three preparation lines: premix, wet mix, thermal treatment.
Continuous mixing with high performance and constant quality.
Capability of mixing huge number of raw materials:
Cereals
Sugars
Fat
Milk products
Honey
Malt
...
Gluten free products are mixed and processed in a separate production line.
Drying
Different types of drying (performed on 9 roller driers) and the capability of performing different Maillard reactions allow us to achieve different products textures and very particular tastes.
Dry mixing
Three continuous dry mix lines (6 tons/hour per line) are capable of adding innumerous ingredients to the cereals (milk powder, vitamins, sugar, fruits, vegetables, fibers, prebiotics, and others)
Gluten and milk free
Belourthe has separate line for gluten-free products and is able to produce also milk-free items.
Packaging
Our packaging lines provide a great diversity of formats (from 10g individual portions for sampling, to 1 ton bags for industrial customers).
2 can lines 99 mm (225/min)
1 can line 127 mm (80/min)
1 double head bag-in-box line (88/min)
1 Sachet line (100/min)
1 big bag filling line
1 bag line (10 to 25kg bags)
In the bag-in-box and in the sachet line it’s possible to perform gassing of the products for a longer shelf-life.
Belourthe offers 100% quality assurance.
A trained and dedicated team focus on raising standards of work
Belourthe’s customers work with us with confidence, knowing that behind our technology stands a solid quality system.
The system is oriented towards granting that all procedures – fabrication, filling, storage, delivery – comply with strict quality standards.

The system is a reference for quality assurance in key European countries.
The BRC system is based in a detailed HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) analysis, which ensures the critical points are identified and the food safety is granted.
A yearly audit guarantees our compliance with the BRC standards is being met, before the certificate can be renovated.
The Belourthe staff is trained to abide by the BRC system, and follow strictly the required hygiene norms.
The factory has safety zones where entrance is limited by a badge system.
In other areas, considered as “high hygiene zones”, entrance requires hands disinfection and shoes protection.
Belourthe is also registered to and accredited by the Belgian Federal Agency for the Security of the Food Chain (AFSCA), which inspects the factory two or three times a year.

The production of mono and disaccharides gives naturally a nice sweet taste and is interesting to replace all or a part of the sucrose in many formulations.
Because a minimum of 80 % of the flour is hydrolyzed, the starch isn’t able to produce viscosity anymore, so the hydrolyzed cereals have very low viscosity. There is no impact on the structure and the appearance of the finished product. Belourthe proposes different hydrolyzed cereals, with different DE values. The higher the DE value is the higher is the presence of some mono and disaccharides. The choice of the hydrolyzed cereals depends then on your applications.

Before 2005
Until 2005 the factory belonged to Nestlé, and was Nestlé’s biggest cereal processing site in Europe.
As from 2006
In the beginning of 2006, thanks to a “management buy- out” operation, Belourthe took over the factory, and became a 100% independent company, which is run now by two of the directors of the former Nestlé’s factory.
These events place Belourthe in a position that is unique in the whole world. We are an independent cereals manufacturer having the technology, the equipment and the formulations knowledge as to deliver cereal products with the very same quality of the world’s leader!
More about Belourthe:
State of the art technology on mixing, drying and filling.

Consumer safety and full compliance with the European norms are our priorities.
The following is a summary of the main industrial processes handled in our plant.
Production
Hydrolyzation
Belourthe is probably one of the only independent factories in the world with the capability of delivering production-scale hydrolyzed cereals.
This process enables to optimize the organoleptical qualities of the product, facilitates the digestion and adds natural sweetness (obtaining sweet cereals without addition of sugar)Wet mixing
We run three preparation lines: premix, wet mix, thermal treatment.
Continuous mixing with high performance and constant quality.
Capability of mixing huge number of raw materials:
Cereals
Sugars
Fat
Milk products
Honey
Malt
...
Gluten free products are mixed and processed in a separate production line.
Drying
Different types of drying (performed on 9 roller driers) and the capability of performing different Maillard reactions allow us to achieve different products textures and very particular tastes.
Dry mixing
Three continuous dry mix lines (6 tons/hour per line) are capable of adding innumerous ingredients to the cereals (milk powder, vitamins, sugar, fruits, vegetables, fibers, prebiotics, and others)
Gluten and milk free
Belourthe has separate line for gluten-free products and is able to produce also milk-free items.
Packaging
Our packaging lines provide a great diversity of formats (from 10g individual portions for sampling, to 1 ton bags for industrial customers).
2 can lines 99 mm (225/min)
1 can line 127 mm (80/min)
1 double head bag-in-box line (88/min)
1 Sachet line (100/min)
1 big bag filling line
1 bag line (10 to 25kg bags)
In the bag-in-box and in the sachet line it’s possible to perform gassing of the products for a longer shelf-life.
