The major plus in protein yield
GEA proplus
GEA proplus extends the ejection intervals of milk separators from 20 – 30 minutes to up to 90 minutes. This ensures added value, a significant increase in protein yields from the quantity of milk used and a clear reduction in fresh water consumption and waste water creation.
New installation or modular retrofitting
GEA proplus offers two options to make your milk processing more profitable: a new installation of GEA separators with integrated proplus system, or specific retrofitting of systems which are already installed.
