Picking Perfection by Pcdata USA Reports Bakers Weigh Oven Upgrades and OSHA Compliance

July 29, 2015 - PRLog -- Safety is always important to bakers. The safety of ovens has increased by reconfiguring oven gas trains to include a "valve proving system," which reduces installation costs and the time needed to perform annual OSHA-required oven-safety inspections.

Sponsored by Pcdata USA, Picking Perfection, included an interview published in Snack Food and Wholesale Bakery magazine.  The staff interviewed the president of Banner-Day, Mike Day, who noted that "Overwhelmingly, customers are concerned with available investment capital and upgrading a current oven, rather than buying new, is a great opportunity. Bakers may be able to upgrade existing ovens with new controls and technology that meet current OSHA and National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) code requirements and enhance performance for 60-70% of the cost of a new oven.”

Pcdata USA will exhibit at the upcoming 11th Annual GBMP Northeast L.E.A.N. Conference from September 29-30, 2015 in Springfield, MA.
