Pharmaceutical Development
GEA is known all over the world for its individual and tailor-made process plant for the manufacture of free-flowing pharmaceutical and biotechnology products. Complete plant, modular equipment, process units and skids can be assembled, tested and qualified in our own production facilities. We perform tests and trial runs with appropriate media to demonstrate the functionality of all components and equipment before the plant is delivered.
In collaboration and partnership with our customers, we aim to develop and deliver high-performance plant and economic process systems that comply with the highest operational safety and environmental standards; we want our customers to use our groundbreaking solutions to manufacture even better products in the future.
GEA can supply a specialized, contained and fully integrated system when no standard off-the-shelf one exists, particularly for toxic or highly potent drugs such as cytostatics or echo contrast media. With our innovative ideas and fresh approaches, together with your project team, we will find a solution that’s tailored to your needs — from basic engineering to fabrication and qualification.

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.
