SILCOAT
Taking the Stick Out of Commercial Baking with SILCOAT
In commercial baking, a loaf, bun or cake that sticks to the pan is more than a frustrating production problem — it is a product that may never reach the customer. As bakeries increase production speeds and automation, reliable pan release has become essential for maintaining quality, reducing waste and keeping production moving.
Even modern silicone-glazed and coated baking pans can benefit from an effective release agent. Applied correctly, pan release creates a thin, uniform barrier between the baked product and the pan, helping ensure clean, consistent de-panning while also protecting pan surfaces.
SILCOAT Pan Release Emulsion offers a silicone-based approach to this challenge. Designed for the baking industry, the water-soluble emulsion is non-gumming and carbon-free, helping minimise the build-up that can result from conventional oil-based releases and can withstand temperatures of up to 305°C.
However, the release agent is only part of the equation. Consistent application is equally important. Over-application wastes product and can contribute to unwanted deposits, while insufficient or uneven coverage can result in sticking and damaged products.
SILCOAT addresses this with application systems suited to different bakery operations. The Uzzi Wall Mount provides a manual solution for smaller bakeries, while the Fully Automatic Spray System is designed for high-speed conveyor production. The Multi Sprayer System provides controlled application for BO3/4/5 bread pans, delivering approximately 1–2 grams per pan.
SILCOAT also offers a 20-litre concentrate that is diluted with water to produce 120 litres of finished product, providing an efficient option for operations looking to reduce transport and handling costs.
For ALL bakeries, the right pan-release solution can mean fewer rejects, less cleaning and greater consistency — turning a small production detail into a meaningful contribution to overall efficiency.
