Aseptic Filling

GEA Procomac PET bottle filling

GEA Procomac has developed a cutting-edge aseptic filling technology for sensitive beverage filling under aseptic conditions. GEA Procomac pioneered the introduction of the microbiological isolator technology to be used instead of a clean room, and has perfected a wet peroxide sterilization technology that offers outstanding performances for high acid and low acid products.

The GEA Procomac aseptic filling systems includes pasteurizers, homogenizers, and integrated blow-fill systems and the actual filling process takes place behind the GEA Procomac proprietary microbiological contained isolator technology.

Although aseptic processing and their resulting extended shelf life (ESL) products already have a significant market share in numerous parts of the world it still has somewhat limited acceptance by US consumers - especially for dairy derived products. Therefore, we foresee a significant growth in the aseptic filling segment - especially within the dairy sector as proper ESL implementation can extend shelf life by up to six months without the need for refrigeration.

Typical application for our aseptic filling systems includes:

• Fruit and vegetable juices
• Sport drinks
• Still drinks
• Milk-based drinks
• UHT milk
• Iced tea and infusions
• Health, herbal and other new-age drinks
