	GEA VARICOVER® Product Recovery Systems: cleaning of pipes with reduced loss of products For high quality products in industries from food and beverages through to pharmaceuticals and cosmetics manufacturers set great value upon the requirement that products do not intermix with other media in the pipes. GEA Tuchenhagen developed a technology to push out high quality products from pipe systems avoiding such intermixing: the GEA VARICOVER® Product Recovery System.
	Effective and efficient slurry management Professional slurry management stands ever more in focus not least for both environmental as well as cost reasons. With the XScrew separator GEA Farm Technologies provides its customers with a fully automated solution for the separation in slurry management. The outcoming dry matter can be reused as compost, bedding or for energy saving reasons.
	Mobile cooling of fish and seafood With the ice containers of the Geneglace range GEA Refrigeration Technologies provides its customers with a mobile solution for the production and storage of flake ice.
	Centrifugal Bilgewater Processing The processing of bilgewater, which collects in the engine room of a ship and is contaminated with oil and fuel residues, is required by law for all ships. GEA Westfalia Separator Group provides its customers with the BilgeMaster cleandesign with an advanced solution for bilgewater treatment.
	High-performance air coolers GEA has extensively further developed its well-establish Küba market SP and Küba SG commercial air cooler ranges. New motors reduce energy consumption by 50 percent and at the same time increase efficiency to over 90 percent. These developments have significantly increased air throw and simultaneously lowered pressure drop. A newly developed terminal box is now an integral component of the fan, which considerably simplifies installation. All relevant components are simple and easy to clean and are part of the new GEA Hygienic Design concept.
	Short mixing time – high performance for hamburgers With its intermeshing and level-displaced mixing wings in combination with the square mixer hull geometry, the GEA UniMix I is ideal for pure beef burgers, case ready ground meat and many raw sausages.
	GEA GLAC-CD Air-Cooled-Chiller: Cost effective cooling With the new air-cooled chillers in the GEA GLAC-CD range, GEA Air Treatment offers a cost-efficient and resource-effective alternative to predecessor models.
	High velocity freezing If you want to freeze hamburgers or other flat food-products, the new HVF freezer (High Velocity Freezer), developed by GEA Refrigeration Technologies, fulfills this task with high velocity.
	GEA SmartPacker: New ultrasonic sealing-technique Although ultrasonic bag sealing on vertical packaging machines has been available for several years, until recently the technique could not deliver consistent results with films as thin as 30 microns. These thinner films are nevertheless in demand because not only do they cost less than thicker gauges, they also reduce the amount of landfill waste after the contents have been consumed. With the GEA SmartPacker GEA now delivers an innovative and reliable solution for those 30 micron films. The main feature that differentiates the GEA SmartPacker from other vertical packaging machines with ultrasonic sealing is a unique (patent pending) technology.
	Deaeration to perfection Versatile for a range of applications in the dairy and food industry – from low to high viscosity products, from small particles up to fruit purées with a high solid particle content – GEA TDS provides deaerator systems which are tailored exactly to requirements.
