Shredding rolls form cooked cereal into distinctive, multi-layered shredded cereals and snacks, including malted wheat squares, multi-layered shredded wheats, 2, 3, or 4 layer corn or rice snacks, and shaped or filled products. 

Many of these products contain a single ingredient, making them attractive to consumers seeking a healthy diet.

Broad product choice

Shredding is an excellent technique to widen the appeal, interest and variety of a cereal range.  It is an alternative to flaking, designed to form cooked cereal into layered shredded or strand type products. Examples are shreddies, shredded wheat and mini shredded wheat. Products are usually based on corn, wheat, bran or rice.

Healthy credentials

The grains are processed without the need for additional ingredients, giving them an impeccable health image and enabling natural taste to be enhanced by a wide range of flavours and seasoning. Fruit filled products are also possible.

Efficient production

Cooked grains are formed into very thin sheets by passing them between pairs of contra-rotating shredding rolls. Several pairs of rolls are used in series to lay webs on top of one another forming a multi-layered sheet. For stranded products the strands are cut to length before drying. For shredded products the finished sheet is crimped and cut to length. The product is then toasted.
