GEA offers pasta filata cheese molding machines that have been designed specifically for producing the highest quality provolone and caciocavallo cheeses.

Our portfolio includes a user friendly provolone cheese molding unit that automates cylindrical molding. Both the height of the product and the speed of carousel rotation can be controlled, so that different product sizes can be processed using the same mold. GEA can also configure 2- ad 4-molding section machines for automated caciocavallo forming.
All GEA machines are designed for maximum efficiency, safety and hygiene. Mechanical or electromechanical protection ensures operator safety around all dangerous parts of the units. A water recycling system allows the jacket heating water to be recirculated and reused. All surfaces that come into contact with the product are Teflon coated. Augers can be easily dismantled, and all edges and corners are rounded so that cleaning fluids can easily reach into every ingress.

The new GEA Application and Technology Center (ATC) in Sarstedt, south of Hannover, is neither a showroom nor a substitute for a lab. It is a place for testing, data collection and early decisions. This is where it becomes clear whether a biological concept can become a robust industrial process. That step is bigger than it may seem.

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.
