Seasoning Systems
Repeatability and accuracy are essential to good product seasoning and KMG has for many years been at the forefront of seasoning system for snack manufacturers. Whether you wish to season in the kitchen at ground level or directly above the packing system, KMG has seasoning systems to suit all requirements. At KMG we understand the importance of accurate, repeatable seasoning delivery and our seasoning systems are designed to be robust and reliable.
Overview
On-machine seasoning (OMS) was pioneered by KMG more than 40 years ago, and we have refined and developed it over the years to ensure that we remain the seasoning specialists. We have designed and built many seasoning systems to feed one or more seasoning drums directly above the packaging system. Most snack food industry leaders have benefited from KMG kitchen seasoning systems to drive production and profits. We keep costs down by delivering accurately metered seasoning using equipment which is designed to be robust and reliable with ultra low running costs.
Our stainless-steel seasoning coating drums are uniquely designed to ensure even and consistent coating. They feature multiple lift flights, fully welded hygienic construction, with speed and angle adjustment as required. Our expertise allows us to design the lift flights to perfectly suit your base product characteristics. Whether your are applying dry seasoning, oil and dry seasoning or slurry, we will design the perfect seasoning coating drum for your application.
In addition, using proprietary software, KMG has developed a unique Loss in Weight system giving our seasoning systems unparalleled performance and unsurpassed user-friendly features. Have a look at our Loss in Weight page to learn more about how we switch from gravimetric to volumetric dosing.

Seasoning Systems
Kitchen Dry Seasoning
KMG Kitchen dry seasoning systems are designed to surpass process throughput and seasoning application requirements and tailored to your factory layout. Typically one to three drums are fed by proportioning systems from the main process.
On Machine Seasoning System
KMG On Machine Seasoning System (OMS) offers producers flexibility where multiple outlets are fed with product and seasoned directly above the packaging machine. Each On Machine Seasoning System (OMS) is fully gravimetric and can be cleaned in less than 20 minutes whilst to other stations production is unaffected.
Oil & Dry Seasoning
Using the features of KMG Liquid spray units and dry seasoning systems KMG has perfected the oil and dry seasoning of Tortilla Chips, Popcorn, Nuts and Extruded products for the worlds leading snack manufacturers.
Slurry Coating
Extruded snacks may need to be heavily seasoned for deep flavour absorption into the product. Where separate oil and dry application systems can’t be used, KMG slurry coating systems may be the alternative.
