The Future of dairy production runs on MLC.
The Multi-Layer Cooker is a modular food production platform for tomorrow's food industry — recipe-controlled, scalable, and built for dairy, plant-based, hybrid and functional categories.
Traditional production adds complexity. MLC creates flexibility.
Consumers want high-protein, clean-label, plant-based, hybrid and functional products. Retailers want differentiation. Producers need speed and flexibility. Traditional dedicated lines make innovation slow, expensive and risky.

MLC turns food production into a flexible technology platform.
The Multi-Layer Cooker integrates key processing steps into one modular, recipe-controlled system — enabling producers to work with multiple raw materials, textures and product categories without building a dedicated line for every concept.
Mixing, heating, cooking, pasteurization and texture building in one controlled system.
Parameters adapt to different raw materials, product types and textures.
The same technology logic supports product development, validation and scale-up.
Six reasons producers move to MLC.
A single platform that turns product innovation into industrial reality.
Faster time-to-market
From idea to pilot and production with fewer process barriers.
Flexible raw material use
Dairy, plant-based, hybrid and specialty raw materials on one platform.
Clean-label potential
Texture, stability and mouthfeel with less dependency on additives.
Modular scalability
Start with pilots, expand with industrial MLC units and partnerships.
Lower innovation risk
Validate before committing to large-scale line investments.
Local production ecosystems
Smarter regional manufacturing close to raw materials and markets.
A proprietary platform for scalable food innovation.
Foodiq is built on three pillars — proprietary technology, practical commercialization and capital-efficient scale.
Proprietary modular processing system integrating mixing, heating, cooking and texture building under recipe control.
Pilots, validation work, contract manufacturing and industrial MLC deployment with food and ingredient partners.
Capital-efficient growth through modular MLC units, strategic partners and localized production ecosystems.
From one module to twenty.
The same MLC logic scales from a single pilot unit to multi-unit industrial facilities — designed and engineered in Finland.
One platform.
Many categories.
MLC opens opportunities across dairy, plant-based, hybrid and functional food categories — from high-protein desserts to next-generation drinks and specialty concepts.
