Flavors
The food industry relies on high quality flavors to make many of our favorite foods stand out from the crowd, whether it’s ice creams and pastries, or sauces and baby foods. GEA has supplied for more than 50 years the food industry with equipment, processing lines and complete solutions so that flavor manufacturers can produce innovative ingredients, safely, consistently and efficiently.
GEA understands that flavor manufacturers need to offer a wide range of flavors to support the food and beverage industry as they develop new and exciting products for highly competitive global markets. Our equipment and industry expertise support our customers as they create authentic new tastes, while staying flexible, reducing operating costs and minimizing resource use.
Processing with care for flavor manufacturing
Our capabilities span the supply of standalone equipment and the configuration and installation of integrated flavor processing plants for small- and large-scale production. Whether or not you already have a specific formulation, we can support you in defining an emulsification and spray drying solution with optimized process capacity and yield, with particular focus on quality and stability of the final powdered flavor.
