Single-zone toasters for raw grain processing
Optimize your cereal and snack food production by achieving consistent toasting and heating with our precision-engineered 1-zone toasters, designed for efficient and reliable operation, while minimizing downtime and energy loss.

Toasts and Heats Grains and Cereals
The 1-Zone Toaster COF-338 and COF-1038 from Cerex AG are engineered to meet the demanding needs of food processing industries, such as breakfast cereal and snack food production. Designed with the latest advancements, these toasters incorporate a new multi-layer insulation system, enhancing thermal efficiency by reducing heat loss and maintaining optimal temperatures between 230-300°C. With heating options including electrical, natural gas, or LPG, they offer flexibility in operations to suit your plant’s energy needs.
The innovative Tube Sheet Removal System allows for easy external access, simplifying cleaning processes and minimizing downtime. This feature supports continuous high-speed operations, a vital requirement for processing up to 500 kg/h as required by high throughput manufacturing.
Constructed from durable stainless steel, the 1-Zone Toaster also integrates an efficient Particle Removal System (PRS), ensuring product purity and quality. Its design makes it ideal for producing a wide range of products, including cornflakes, granola clusters, and coated nuts. The COF-338 and COF-1038 models are perfect for food processing companies seeking a reliable and efficient solution in grain and cereal toasting operations.
