Sustainability is key to the future of the dairy industry and is a top priority at GEA.  

GEA is committed to climate action and technology leadership. Every day the company is taking concrete steps, applying the power of innovation to enable their customers to make progress towards a more sustainable future. “Engineering for a better world” is the essence of what the company set out to achieve.  

The biggest challenge and opportunity are emissions generated by energy intensive processes widely used in the dairy industry. GEA changes the approach in these energy intensive processes. Through innovations and smart integration of technologies, they aim to create more efficient and validated solutions. Ultimately this supports GEA’s climate strategy commitments to Net Zero 2040 and rewards forward-thinking dairy processors with significant contributions to meet their climate commitments.

The aim of this session is to present technological innovations that are validated and ready to implement which significantly reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions by50% or more. This will support the endeavors of the dairy industry to stay relevant and operate responsibly in a sustainable way.
