‘Excellence At Every Stage’ is more than just a theme. It is the promise at the core of GEA’s food processing and packaging business, encompassing the technology, the service and the people, striving to deliver maximum performance at each stage of the journey, from an idea to a delicious food product.

With two nominations in two different categories, GEA was well-represented at the Gulfood Manufacturing awards ceremony. The GEA MultiJector 2mm needles was nominated in the category ’Most innovative processing solution’ and the GEA CookStar with SuperHeatSmoke was nominated in the category ’Top futuristic technology’. The GEA CookStar with SuperHeatSmoke won the prestigious industry excellence award, which was presented to the GEA team at the GALA dinner that took place in the Dubai World Trade Centre. 

Who doesn’t enjoy the unique Smokey barbecue flavor? GEA is the first to introduce in-line smoking in a spiral oven with the introduction of GEA CookStar SuperHeatSmoke.
