Authentic homestyle breading
Benefit from GEA’s advanced coating technology for the food industry. GEA MultiDrum is a patented, state-of-the-art homestyle flour breader. It offers the perfect marriage between productivity and authenticity, without compromise. Our homestyle coater helps use ingredients efficiently, requires very little manual labor and promotes dust-free working conditions.
Re-creating delicious homestyle breading on an industrial scale used to be a compromise. You had to choose between an authentic look but with low production efficiency, or a non-authentic appearance with better efficiency. No more! GEA has perfected its homestyle breader to overcome all of the automated homestyle breading drawbacks and help you produce authentic natural products with a crunchy golden coating. Just like mom used to make it!
GEA MultiDrum homestyle breader is typically suitable for applications such as for bone-in and boneless chicken tenders, cuts, shrimps, fish and onion rings.

Reliability you can count on
High efficiency in a smart design
With the GEA MultiDrum your benefits start at the beginning: the infeed. There’s no need for converging machines: they just add cost and footprint. As the products rise on the chain belt, they are naturally divided into separate channels: one for each drum. The correct level of flour is maintained so your products are breaded perfectly every time.
This technology is unique to GEA MultiDrum coating machines. The homestyle appearance is created by tumbling your products in a drum. There are no augers, so there’s little chance of blockage. After tumbling, excess flour falls through the slits and is constantly cycled back to the machine. At the outfeed of the homestyle breader, products are spread evenly across the belt, so you don’t need spreading machines or manual workers.

What if your favorite chocolate didn’t require cocoa beans and your coffee was locally produced? As climate disruption, price hikes and ethical concerns hit two of our most beloved indulgences, scientists are reimagining how we produce them – using microbes, not monocultures. The goal: preserve the flavor and properties of coffee and chocolate while minimizing carbon emissions and improving food resilience.
Ports now compete not just on logistics, but on sustainability. At Greece’s Piraeus port, an advanced processing and recovery facility recycles ship waste oil into fuel. Equipped with GEA’s high-performance centrifuges, it sets a new benchmark for state-of-the-art, environmentally responsible port operations.
The 2022 CO2 shortage forced breweries to review their dependency on global supply chains. Many were forced to close, unable to carbonate their products. At its breweries in Germany, OeTTINGER GETRÄNKE is turning its own CO2 into a powerful lever for independence and sustainability – with the help of CO2 recovery technology from GEA.
