From laundry liquids or fabric conditioners and from descalers to fabric sprays, you’ll find the right processing systems with GEA.
GEA is a trusted supplier of turnkey plants for both the batch and continuous, recipe-controlled production of a wide range of laundry products, including surface cleaners , gels fabric sprays and descalers.
Our technology expertise covers liquid processing, mixing, blending, clean-in-place (CIP) solutions and flow components such as pumps and valves.
In addition, every component of a GEA home care processing line is designed to meet the strictest hygiene standards. This ensures safe operation and reliable product quality with a repeatable security of outcome that maintains customers’ brands and underpins the values that have built them.
GEA plant design always includes:
For liquid processing
- hygienic configuration
- process and component temperature control
- recipe-dependent, synchronous metering of individual fluids in different mixing segments
- continuous or batch blending
- recovery of the applied preheating
- measurement and control of viscosity and other variables
For powder processing
- a range of powder production plants capable of manufacturing consistent products with homogenously dispersion active ingredients
- plant with highly effective filters and scrubbers to ensure the emission of clean process air
- pressure shock-resistant plants that’s designed with either suppression or pressure relief to protect the equipment and personnel
- semi- or fully automatic clean-in-place (CIP) systems that facilitate efficient cleaning, reduce downtime and expedite product changeovers

GEA Insights
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.
