Western Mechanical Handling UK Ltd (WMH), based in Callington, Cornwall, has relaunched its specialist range of cheese-making equipment, reaffirming its commitment to supporting Britain’s growing community of artisan and farmhouse dairies. With a heritage rooted in bespoke engineering for the food industry, WMH is bringing renewed focus to its dairy solutions — designed specifically for small-scale producers who value tradition, reliability, and craftsmanship.
Revitalised Range for Modern Cheese-makers
Originally developed in collaboration with Cornish dairies in the 1980s, WMH’s cheese-making equipment has been refined and relaunched to meet the evolving needs of today’s producers. The updated range includes:
- Pneumatically powered cheese presses (single to five-station models)
- Mobile and VAT-mounted curd mills with electric drives and safety interlocks
- Stainless steel cheese moulds in top-hat style, available from 1kg to 20kg
- Fully insulated waxing troughs with removable liners for easy cleaning
Each item is built from certified food-grade materials and high-quality stainless steel, ensuring durability and hygiene in demanding dairy environments.
Designed for Simplicity, Built for Longevity
WMH’s equipment is engineered with the busy cheese-maker in mind — straightforward to operate, easy to clean, and robust enough to withstand daily use. The relaunch reflects WMH’s continued investment in practical, low-maintenance solutions that don’t compromise on quality or safety.
Supporting Britain’s Artisan Revival
As interest in locally produced, traditionally crafted food continues to rise, WMH’s revitalised product range offers essential tools for dairies looking to scale up without losing their artisanal edge. Whether launching a new cheese line or upgrading existing kit, producers can rely on WMH’s experience and craftsmanship to deliver equipment that fits their needs.
