Continuous Tableting Lines
At GEA we believe that continuous processing improves the quality of pharmaceutical end products: by focusing on quality during the whole product life-cycle, not just “tested in” quality; and by understanding the capability of your processes, managing sources of variability and decreasing any associated risks.
Our solution for continuous tableting lines is ConsiGma®, a 6 sigma-inspired manufacturing platform, incorporating different technologies to produce oral solid dosage forms in a continuous, cost-efficient way:
- by collecting more information during R&D phase, in a short time with less product
- by excluding risky, time- and product consuming scale-up exercises
- by introducing online measurement and closed loop control targeting real-time release (6 sigma production)
- by incorporating flexible batch size (JIT production), reducing inventory
- by reducing the energy cost per tablet, reducing environmental impact.

Shifts in food packaging: 4 trends
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.
Fruit storage at Betko: Control from peak harvest to global delivery
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.
