What our customers say

We focus on solving real problems and improving outcomes for our customers. The feedback below reflects that approach in practice.

Initially, we hadn’t appreciated the complexity behind silicone-coated paper until Linwood Raker audited our usage. As a result, they rationalised our supply to two grades with specific purposes, thereby improving performance while simultaneously cutting both cost and weight-ultimately.

Ron A
– Chemical Solutions

For years, we used the wrong type of paper without realising that a more cost-effective option suited our baking process. However, Linwood Raker identified the right solution and, in addition, worked directly with our waste provider to secure recycling status for our used papers, thereby ensuring diversion from landfill.

Kev P
– Master Baker

Previously, we lined our ingot trays with plastic bags, which resulted in wasting up to 10% of the finished product and leaving an unsightly finish. By contrast, Linwood Raker designed a precisely sized liner that eliminated waste and, moreover, delivered a flawless finish. Highly recommended!
