GEA Grasso M
Thanks to advanced engineering design and less component complexity, GEA Grasso M screw compressor units combine outstanding reliability and easy servicing with high efficiency. These features offer excellent savings potential on energy, service and other operating expenses and lower the total cost of the refrigeration system over its entire life cycle.
Engineered for energy efficiency, GEA Grasso M screw compressors consume 3 to 5 % less power than their predecessors. This adds up to significant savings on your electricity bill. GEA Grasso M units in most common application conditions operate without oil pump – which further reduces energy consumption and lowers spare parts expenses.
Powered by high speed motors (variable speed range: 1,000 – 4,500 rpm), GEA Grasso M units deliver top capacities and maximum efficiency for low part-load requirements.
Smart design and reduced complexity result in very small footprints making the GEA Grasso M units by far the most compact on the market.
Technical improvements to several key components allow for prolonged maintenance intervals. This minimizes service time and expenses, and again benefits your total cost of ownership.
The series includes 8 models covering a cooling capacity range from 219 to 879 kW (R717 | -10/+35°C | 4,500 rpm).

What if your favorite chocolate didn’t require cocoa beans and your coffee was locally produced? As climate disruption, price hikes and ethical concerns hit two of our most beloved indulgences, scientists are reimagining how we produce them – using microbes, not monocultures. The goal: preserve the flavor and properties of coffee and chocolate while minimizing carbon emissions and improving food resilience.
Ports now compete not just on logistics, but on sustainability. At Greece’s Piraeus port, an advanced processing and recovery facility recycles ship waste oil into fuel. Equipped with GEA’s high-performance centrifuges, it sets a new benchmark for state-of-the-art, environmentally responsible port operations.
The 2022 CO2 shortage forced breweries to review their dependency on global supply chains. Many were forced to close, unable to carbonate their products. At its breweries in Germany, OeTTINGER GETRÄNKE is turning its own CO2 into a powerful lever for independence and sustainability – with the help of CO2 recovery technology from GEA.
