GEA technologies in the cold block process incorporate the high microbiological and hygienic demands of food production and the necessity for a cost-effective and safe process.
We engineer and build a wide variety of cold block piping solutions. From the manually operated pipe fence solution, sometime including hoses, to the highly complex and fully automated transportation system for all liquids based on our ECO-MATRIX® piping solution. Individual needs can be considered – quality and product safety are our drivers, and the beer quality our motivation.

GEA ECO-MATRIX® is a fully automatic fixed piping system for process tanks in the beverage industry. It provides enhanced product quality and offers significant cost saving opportunities.

Pipe fences of GEA provide a cost-effective solution for media distribution in breweries. Just like the swing bend panels, our pipe fences are designed to customer specifications and individually tailored for your system.

In piping systems with GEA swing bend panels, media distribution is performed via pipe bends and valves (generally butterfly valves). In this case, the operators must have good knowledge of the process in order to avoid errors.

Our extensive experience and expertise in valve block design guarantees high maintainability/accessibility as well as low space requirement.

GEA centrifuges enable wastewater reuse, resource recovery, and water security by turning biosolids into value in a world facing growing water scarcity.
Last year was not a year of hyped-up headlines for alternative proteins. Perhaps that is precisely why it was an important year for food biotech, the biotechnology behind everyday foods and ingredients. While the sector worked through a difficult funding environment, approvals were still granted, pilot lines set up and new platforms tested in the background. In short: headlines are turning into infrastructure. Frederieke Reiners heads GEA’s New Food business. She and her team work at the intersection of biotechnology and industrial food production. In this interview, she takes us on a world tour of food biotech in seven questions.
