About PTL

PTL specialises in designing and
manufacturing innovative chocolate
and bar machinery.

A fresh approach to chocolate and bar machinery

PTL was founded with a clear objective: to create high-quality machinery focused on simplifying operations and improving efficiency. We collaborate with our customers to ensure that our chocolate and bar machinery meets their needs.

An opportunity realised through hands-on experience

Jim and Mary Halliday founded PTL in 1988. Prior to forming PTL, Jim worked as the chief engineer in a chocolate factory, designing and maintaining chocolate machinery. It was from this hands-on experience, in both machinery design and chocolate processing, that Jim saw an opportunity in the market.

Creating innovative machinery, together

PTL works closely with its customers and since day one our focus has been on our customers. When our customers tell us what they need, we listen. Our machinery is easy to operate and maintain, with fast and simple cleaning and changeovers. With an inherent drive to innovate, we specialise in evolving designs and technology.

A long-term partnership

Our objective is to work closely with our customers, deliver effective solutions and build long-term partnerships. We promise a personal approach where you deal directly with the people at the heart of the business.
