Background and initial request

Menthes Rito has been making popular candies in Québec since 1957. They are even recognized as the largest manufacturer of mints and Valentine’s Day hearts in North America.

Following a violent fire that ravaged its facilities, Menthes Rito got back on its feet and commissioned our team to rebuild its production line. It was an exciting project for our great minds!

We started from scratch. We questioned and perfected every design detail to double the efficiency of the new production line.

Recommended solutions

  • Custom design of automated equipment

Concrete benefits for the customer

From preparing the blends to the candy packaging, our team demonstrated its ingenuity by optimizing every stage of production. For Menthes Rito, its increased productivity makes all the difference to their performance.
