Showing 3 of 30Automation & Control SystemsDiversity is one of nature’s key concepts to cope with changing and variable environments. This strategy is also a strength in automation: different environments and trades need different solutions and individual adaptations. Whether in the brewing, chemical, dairy or pharmaceutical industries, automation and control systems have different requirements and need individualized solutions.

Showing 1 of 30Brewing SystemsWhen it comes to brewing technology, GEA is the specialist. With our extensive know-how and vast engineering experience we are uniquely qualified to build brewery plants. Like no other supplier, GEA covers the complete brewing process in the finest detail – from the mill to the valve manifold of the bright beer tanks. This level of attention gives you exceptional security in terms of operation, process design and spare parts.

Showing 2 of 30Cleaners & SterilizersIn today's processing industries, from food and beverage to personal care, from dairy to pharmaceutical, integrated clean-in-place (CIP) solutions play a key role. GEA supplies both manual and fully automated CIP and sterilize-in-place (SIP) solutions, ensuring reliable process outcomes with minimal downtime. Whether it's liquid, solid or semi-solid, GEA’s extensive range of cleaning and sterilization solutions — from R&D to full-scale production and from standalone equipment and modules to completely integrated processing lines — are an essential requirement for any quality conscious manufacturer. We also recognize the increasing need to handle highly potent and toxic actives, guarantee both operator and product safety, prevent batch-to-batch cross-contamination and protect the environment.

Showing 4 of 30Evaporation & Crystallization SystemsEvaporation and crystallization plants are required whenever in a process: water or any other solvent has to be removed, concentration has to be increased or volume reduced, valuable and pure crystals have to be produced, by-products or impurities have to be stripped or precipitated. To meet customer specification in density, purity, particle size, operating time, while minimizing investment and operating costs, the GEA highly skilled process engineers design evaporation and crystallization plants with a full range of all applied technologies. For high standards of quality, recrystallization can be applied to improve the purity of final product. GEA's extensive experience in building continuous evaporation and crystallization plants is essential to satisfy customers’ needs.
-
Showing 5 of 30HomogenizersThe equipment needed by the homogenizer includes all the components able to micronize the particles of the fluid and to obtain a homogenous and stable emulsion of the product. Industrial and laboratory high pressure homogenizers are positive displacement pumps equipped with the compression block and the homogenizing valve able to process a wide range of applications and to enhance the organoleptic characteristics and the stability of the product.
-
Showing 2 of 30Liquid Processing SystemsGEA specializes in the design of liquid processing systems, providing the highest degree of production safety for a comprehensive range of advanced processing units.
-
Showing 2 of 30Membrane Filtration SystemsCross-flow membrane filtration, including nanofiltration, microfiltration, ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis, is the technology of choice for many industrial processes that require the separation or concentration of products without the application of heat. There are applications throughout the food, dairy, beverage, chemical, biotechnology, fermentation, as well as starch and sweetener industries in which membrane filtration excels.
-
Showing 4 of 30Mixers & BlendersGEA's extensive process knowledge and continuous research delivers the most efficient mixers and blenders. We offer a wide range of technical solutions and process options to ensure the efficient mixing and blending of liquids, powders and granules for a broad scope of industries and applications. Our range of high-performance mixers and wide range of capacity options means you can choose a machine that exactly matches your processing requirements. From food, beverage and dairy applications to chemical, personal care and pharmaceutical ones, whether batch or continuous, GEA not only understands mixing technology, we also have a unique understanding and know-how of the entire process, based on many years of experience and hundreds of successful installations.
