Lyophilization Technology
GEA’s LYOVAC® industrial-scale freeze dryers are built to customer specifications and are available with production areas of 1–60 m² and condenser capacities of more than 1000 kg.
The LYOVAC® production-scale freeze dryer is a best-in-class solution for the pharmaceutical industry. In close collaboration with our customers, we design, build and customize them according to specific requirements.
LYOVAC® freeze dryers and their peripherical equipment can be arranged either on one or multiple floors. The condenser can be situated next to the drying chamber or directly underneath it. Either way, it ensures both easy access to the machine parts and complete separation between the cleanroom and the technical area.
A unique feature is the high quality of the in-house manufactured shelves. This is the heart of the machine and ensures an optimal temperature distribution, unform result and, consequently, the essential final product quality.
Several features of the LYOVAC® (see below) support the fastest processing times in the industry, offering increased productivity and commercial benefits.
The LYOVAC® range is also available using GEA’s unique Fast Track manufacturing process. Depending on the complexity of the installation and based on previously completed projects, it’s possible to have a system up and running in less than a year.

Que diriez-vous si votre chocolat préféré n’avait pas besoin de fèves de cacao et si votre café était produit localement ? Alors que le dérèglement climatique, les hausses de prix et les préoccupations éthiques frappent de plein fouet deux de nos péchés mignons préférés, les chercheurs réimaginent la façon dont nous les produisons en abandonnant la monoculture pour miser sur les microbes. L’objectif est de préserver l’arôme et les propriétés du café et du chocolat tout en minimisant les émissions de carbone et en améliorant la résilience alimentaire.
