Starting signal for the expansion of the Bauck Oat Mill for gluten-free and organic products

May 21, 2024 - The amount of gluten-free and organic products available will soon increase significantly, as Bauck GmbH is expanding the largest and most advanced organic oat mill in Europe commissioned in 2021. Thanks to successful cooperation with the internationally renowned machine and plant manufacturer F H SCHULE Mühlenbau GmbH, the output of all sections of the mill will be doubled in the future. This is the response of Bauck GmbH to the strongly increasing demand for gluten-free products and organic products from sustainable production.

There is hardly any other topic that concerns people as much as nutrition. There is a philosophy for literally every aspect of nutrition, including fitness trends, culinary health risks and food intolerances. For anyone who values the organic cultivation of cereals, Bauck GmbH is the ideal choice. The family and employee run medium-sized company based in Rosche, Lower Saxony, is renowned for the high quality of its Demeter and organic products. Under the brand name 'Bauck Mühle', it produces a range of products including flours, mueslis and baking mixes. Three years ago, Bauck launched the largest production facility for gluten-free cereal products in Europe in Rosche - with high-performance machines and plants from SCHULE. And Bauck relies on the experienced specialist for oat processing from Reinbek also for the expansion of the mill.

Currently, up to 20,000 tonnes of grain a year can be converted into flour or flakes in the eight-storey building in the district of Uelzen, which has a total height of 48 metres. This expansion of the mill will double the capacity in all sections, from fine cleaning, hulling and sorting to flaking and pelleting. For the market leader in gluten-free organic products, this is not just a response to the rising demand. By providing additional capacity for organic and Demeter raw materials, Bauck is also pursuing the goal of further expanding organic farming in the region. The expansion of the mill will take place while the mill is in operation and is expected to be completed by the beginning of 2025.

"The quality of the plants and the sound technical advice we receive from SCHULE have won us over," explains Jan-Peter Bauck, Managing Director of Bauck. "Above all, the enormous commitment of the SCHULE team, starting from the first meeting, through the entire construction phase and commissioning of the mill, including the subsequent customer service, was the decisive factor in our decision to implement also the expansion of our mill with SCHULE. When working with SCHULE, we always get the feeling that it is not just about providing a service, but about working together on a joint project." Friedemann Wecker, who has also been a member of the Bauck GmbH Management since 2023, adds: "The plant's performance speaks for itself - from the first commissioning until today. We also appreciate the fact that the plant technology is constantly being advanced due to SCHULE's outstanding expertise. That is reason enough to continue our joint success story with the project 'Good Flake 2.0'."

Especially in the currently difficult market situation, it cannot be expected that consumers spend money on premium products, explains Marius Hermes, Managing Director of SCHULE Mühlenbau. "Of course, we are also very pleased about the success of Bauck GmbH. The significant increase in our plant output after just four years of operation is testimony to the high quality of the products and their popularity with consumers. The fact that Bauck has once agin chosen SCHULE for the mill expansion is of course the greatest compliment for us as a plant manufacturer and a confirmation of our long-standing and good partnership."
