Most concentrates and syrups are used for blending and for preparing re-diluted pure or mixed beverages.Through a set of advanced filtration and extraction processes, or during the evaporation process, volatile aroma substances can be extracted from thin juice. These aroma substances are removed and added to the fruit juice later on for intensifying the fruit flavor.
GEA can supply complete production processes for concentration plants, together with ancillary equipment and technologies for heating, cooling, degassing, aroma recovery, desulfurization and condensation. Our technological and process expertise in this area has resulted in a wide-ranging portfolio that in addition spans intake systems, flow meters, sugar dissolving, batch or in-line blending, and filling and packaging technologies. We can customize our solutions to the requirement of each customer and product.

Aseptic valves & components
Aseptic valves face exceptionally high demands within UltraClean and Aseptic processes. You can be assured that they all provide highest quality in terms of hygienic design and sustainability.

Centrifugal Separator
GEA separators are designed for liquid-based applications. Using centrifugal force, they are used for separating suspensions consisting of two or more phases of different densities, i.e. they can be used for liquid-liquid separation, for liquid-liquid-solid separation or for liquid-solid separation. They are equally as effective at separating liq...

Cold Block Processing
GEA offers a complete portfolio of technologies for the cold process area in your brewery.

Container Handling Equipment
The heart of all fillings systems is the filling machine itself. To make a system requires a lot more. GEA offers complete filling lines which means that we also take care of the complicated task of line integration and control. In order to provide an efficient production line, it is important to consider all parts of the system together. Our exp...

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.

Beyond the machine: unlocking better plant performance
An efficient machine does not automatically make an efficient factory. Real improvement often starts by looking beyond individual equipment and understanding how processes, energy systems and operating decisions affect one another. It’s a holistic approach designed to uncover opportunities that might otherwise be missed.

How a valve reshapes the way food and drinks are made
In food and beverage plants, valves are commonly operated using compressed air. GEA Hydract® Actuation Technology moves valves with water instead, in a closed, digitally controlled circuit. The result is a valve that can be held exactly in place and steered in fine-tuned steps. This results in lower energy use and greater control.
