Studio Bakery, an artisan bakery in the Ribble Valley, has enhanced its production process by adopting the Russell Compact Sieve®, eliminating manual flour sieving and improving team well-being.
Founded in 2017 by Allison Metcalf, Studio Bakery has grown from a small garden studio to a thriving business with 45 bakers. Known for handmade cakes, donuts, and brownies, the bakery faced growing demand that made manual sieving a bottleneck — each batch required sieving 16 kg of flour by hand.
To resolve this, Studio Bakery partnered with Russell Finex, who recommended the Russell Compact Sieve® — a space-saving, high-performance vibratory sieve that removes contaminants efficiently. The result: faster production, reduced injury risk, and a happier team.
“Allison Metcalf, Founder and Director, shared: ‘We highly recommend Russell Finex. The Compact Sieve is easy to clean, quiet, and makes a huge difference. Our bakers love it — no more sieving duty debates!’
