Lab tests for non-EU animal origin products
Did you know that the GEA’s Process Technology Center (PTC) for Homogenizers is able to test animal origin products coming from countries outside the European Union? Feel free to contact us for more details or to schedule a test.
Located in Parma, Italy, just 100 kilometres from Milan, GEA’s PTC for homogenization opened its doors to customers in 1990. Conveniently situated next to GEA’s production site for its world-class homogenizers, the PTC and its staff play a critical role in serving customers and in the development of new solutions. Here, manufacturers from the dairy processing, food, beverage, chemical, home & personal care, biotech and pharma industries can test, develop and optimize products to ensure high-quality results before scaling up production or making equipment investments.
Our testing equipment, accommodating trials for both batch and continuous manufacturing includes: pre-mixer and turbo-emulsifier tanks; table-top homogenizers; pilot plant homogenizers and laboratory fume hood. The lab is equipped for: microscope analysis; particle size characterization (micro & nano) as well as viscosity-rheology and stability analysis. A portion of the PTC is devoted to R&D and exploring new homogenization technologies as well as prototype testing.
