Gluten-Free Pasta technologies

Versatile solutions in response to the challenges of gluten-free pasta production.

Facing new market demands, people's needs and the availability of raw materials in each country, it is of paramount importance to be able to develop gluten-free products while ensuring their highest quality.

The gluten-free future: a nutritional and cultural revolution

The rise of celiac disease and food intolerances, have generated a growing demand for gluten-free products, making processes and equipment for the production of gluten-free foods even more central. This trend has also stimulated the development of a niche of consumers who are attentive to the nutritional values of foods, preferring a lifestyle that favors more digestible and protein-rich foods.

Parallel to these changes, the adoption of local crops and raw materials has become an essential avenue in the promotion of sustainable production, which is likely to improve food security, also in developing countries. This approach not only meets the needs of modern consumers, but also leads the way for a nutritional and cultural revolution that embraces diversity and sustainability.
Defining quality in gluten-free pasta

A gluten-free pasta is defined as quality if it meets precise requirements in terms of organoleptic characteristics and expectations of markets and consumers. To be in line with this principle, both the production process and the finished product must correctly interpret the market in which they are found, through constant technological development that allows gluten-free pasta to be made worldwide.

The versatility of GEA's production lines for gluten free pasta make it possible to process different types and formats of aglutinic pasta:

Alternative raw materials

Crafting gluten-free pasta of superior quality is now more achievable than ever, thanks to GEA's advanced technology. By leveraging the natural starches in alternative raw materials such as rice, corn, tapioca, lentils, beans, fava beans, and chickpeas, GEA's state-of-the-art processing solutions facilitate the gelatinization process essential for producing gluten-free pasta that doesn't compromise on texture or structure.

Drying is a critical phase in gluten-free pasta production, where meticulous control is paramount to achieve the desired quality attributes such as color, fragrance, and texture. GEA's advanced drying systems are pivotal in fine-tuning these attributes of gluten-free pasta. By expertly regulating temperature, humidity, and airflow, GEA technology ensures that the final product not only meets but exceeds customer expectations, delivering pasta that is consistently perfect in every aspect.
