Exposure and cross contamination can happen at every point where your product moves between vessels. GEA's proven containment valves and transfer systems help pharmaceutical manufacturers safely move materials between process steps while protecting operators, preventing cross-contamination and maintaining product integrity. Backed by decades of containment expertise, our solutions support the handling of potent and highly potent compounds in demanding production environments.
However, containment is only as strong as the system surrounding it. To maintain containment performance throughout manufacturing, transfer technology must work seamlessly with the equipment that transports, lifts, stores and delivers materials. That's why GEA combines industry-leading containment solutions with a comprehensive portfolio of IBCs, handling systems, hoists, docking stations and material transfer technologies.
What sets GEA apart is our ability to integrate these elements into complete process solutions. From raw material charging through blending, granulation, tableting and coating, we design contained materials handling systems that connect equipment, processes and transfer points into a safe, efficient and compliant manufacturing operation.

Innovating for impact: shaping better solutions for customers
Industrial production is being asked to use fewer resources, become smarter and keep equipment productive for longer. At GEA, that is changing how innovation happens: engineering, customer insight, digital expertise and service come together earlier – when a solution can still be shaped at its core.
