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.

The GEA Foundation launched this year with a promise: to make a tangible difference in people's lives. From scholarships in Germany to clean water in Tanzania, the foundation is already proving that when companies commit to giving back, lives change.
Automated milking has become the first choice for many modern dairy farms. The benefits are compelling, and with a new batch milking solution from GEA, automated group milking for large dairy herds is possible without the need – and expense – of rebuilding existing facilities.
At Carlsberg’s Fredericia brewery, GEA VARIVENT valves are part of a long-game strategy. By reusing core valve bodies, retrofitting actuators and control tops, and planning maintenance around brewing seasons, Carlsberg extends asset life, reduces downtime and supports its ambitious water and sustainability targets.
