Where Food Meets Pharma: Dietary Supplements, Functional Foods and Nutraceuticals
Positioned between food and pharmaceuticals, the nutraceutical industry comprises functional foods, vitamins, supplements and over-the-counter (OTC) products that are formulated with molecules or elements found in nature for the purpose of maintaining or improving health and treating or preventing diseases/conditions.
The range of health products is wide, including ginseng, valerian, spices and liquorice, among others, and a huge variety of herbal ingredients.
With its culture of innovation and the rapid application of new developments in cutting-edge equipment and technology, GEA supplies both large and small customers with an optimized mix of high output and cost-effective solutions, as well as productivity and flexibility.
From a manufacturing perspective, GEA supplies a complete range of granulation and pelletizing equipment, as well as a comprehensive selection of powder handling, mixing and blending technologies, and machinery for powders designed for capsule filling. We offer engineering services, entire process plant and standalone machines for oral solid dosage form processing for customers in the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries.
From weighing, dosing and discharging equipment to extruders and spheronizers, and from fluid bed processors and high shear granulators to rotary tablet presses and coaters, GEA has the technology, experience and expertise to provide a complete range of granulation and drying solutions, including batch, continuous and single-pot systems. Our experience with special dosage forms such as effervescents is a key advantage for many nutraceutical products. And, if required, we can help with process and product development.

The breakthrough that changed spray drying
In 1976, NIRO engineers responded to a competitive challenge by rethinking what spray drying could do. Their idea became the multi-stage dryer MSD. Fifty years later, the same fundamental principle helps turn liquids into the powders used in essential nutrition products and important medicines around the world. Refined through decades of engineering expertise, customer insight and continuous development, MSD is a story of innovation with lasting impact.
Das Ganze im Blick: Wie Anlagen dauerhaft besser laufen
Eine effiziente Maschine macht noch keine effiziente Produktion. Echte Verbesserungen beginnen oft damit, den Blick über die einzelnen Anlagenelemente hinaus zu richten und zu verstehen, wie sich Prozesse, Energiesysteme und betriebliche Entscheidungen gegenseitig beeinflussen. Ein solcher ganzheitlicher Ansatz hilft beim Identifizieren von Potenzialen, die sonst verborgen bleiben.
Wie eine neue Ventiltechnologie die Produktion von Lebensmitteln und Getränken verändert
In der Lebensmittel- und Getränkeindustrie werden Ventile traditionell mit Druckluft betrieben. Die GEA Hydract®-Antriebstechnologie betätigt Ventile dagegen mit Wasser in einem geschlossenen, digital gesteuerten Kreislauf. Das Ergebnis: Ventile lassen sich präzise in jeder gewünschten Position halten und in fein abgestuften Schritten steuern. Dadurch sinken der Energieverbrauch und gleichzeitig steigt die Prozesskontrolle erheblich.
