Cheese Making Equipment

Western Mechanical Handling (WMH) has been a trusted partner to farmhouse cheese producers since the 1980s, beginning with bespoke equipment for a local Cornish dairy. From the start, we’ve worked hand-in-hand with cheese makers to bring their ideas to life—designing and manufacturing essential tools like cheese presses, mills, curd knives, agitators, and a wide array of custom components to support growing operations.

Tailored Equipment for Every Dairy

Our core offerings—cheese presses, moulds, and peg mills—are just the beginning. Every cheese maker has unique needs based on their cheese type, production volume, and dairy layout. That’s why WMH has spent decades collaborating with dairies across the UK and Ireland, crafting solutions that fit their specific requirements. Today, we offer a specialized range of equipment designed especially for small-scale farmhouse cheese producers.

Built for Strength and Hygiene

All WMH units are constructed from high-quality stainless steel and certified food-grade materials. With fully welded joints, our equipment delivers superior durability and optimal hygiene—essential for any dairy environment.

Simple, Reliable, and Easy to Use

We design our mills and presses with simplicity at their core, ensuring that busy cheese makers can operate and maintain their equipment with ease. No unnecessary complexity—just dependable tools that get the job done.
