GEA compression heads are the homogenizer pulsing core since they activate the homogenization process pumping the product at high pressure until it flows inside the homogenizing valve.
The head is the distinctive element of the machine: its materials (which comply with strength and lifetime criteria requested by the market) and the capability to satisfy the strictest food industry hygienic regulations, guarantee that GEA compression block is an essential part for the reliability and good outcome of the productive process.
Furthermore, the possibility of choosing among different head design which are suitable with the product to be treated and with the used pressure range, makes these head components highly customizable according to the process needs.

OpenXFLO™ has been designed to extend high pressure homogenization technology to new applications such as latex and polymers nanodispersions, slurries and products containing high fibers or solid parts.

The Standard compression block is a monoblock head which pumps the product up to the homogenizing valve in high pressure..

The Very High Pressure (VHP) compression block is a specific configuration of the liquid end for machine operating at very high pressure, over 700 bar.

Thermoforming has long played a central role in food packaging. Now it is facing a major shift. As regulations tighten, materials evolve and costs rise, form fill seal lines must do more than run reliably – they now shape how food stays fresh, affordable and recyclable. Take a look at the key thermoforming trends informing the food packaging and delivery landscape.

From the orchards of the Cape to store shelves across 40 countries, the South African packhouse Betko has built a business on freshness, timing and reliability. With GEA’s controlled atmosphere refrigeration technology, the company can now store apples and pears for up to 14 months and cut energy consumption by 20%, with a partnership of more than 30 years at the heart of it all.
