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.

NisoCLEAN is a compression block with a specific hygienic design conceived for food industry products, especially for probiotic foods containing fibers and solid parts, baby food, viscous dressing and protein-rich foods.

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.
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.
