Darigold completes construction of plant dryer in Lynden, Wash.
Darigold exports two thirds of its milk powder production and three-quarters of its whey products.
Seattle-based Darigold, the marketing and processing subsidiary of the Northwest Dairy Association, announced the completion of its new milk powder dryer at its Lynden, Wash., processing plant. A fire destroyed the dryer in February 2012.
“We will now begin the process of initial start-up runs through the new dryer," said President & CEO Jim Wegner. Darigold will fine-tune the equipment and complete employee training, he said.
