World renowned technology specialist GEA will be sharing its vision of ‘a taste of tomorrow’ at this year’s ProPak Asia, taking place 14 to 17 June at BITEC in Thailand. The company will be showcasing a diverse range of machinery and product developments at stand AX21, including a much-anticipated debut for the Asian market. For GEA it’s the first return to ProPak after the Covid pandemic.

GEA is celebrating its 60-year anniversary in food processing and is marking the occasion by showing for the first time a number of brand new technical innovations in meat, poultry and vegetarian food, bakery, pasta and extruded foods. This includes the highlight - the redesign of a legendary machine in the breading/coating industry: the CrumbMaster Gen 2 will be presented for the first time to the Asian market at ProPak.

CrumbMaster Gen 2 is the latest evolution of GEA’s trusted in-line crumb coating/breading system for accurate spreading on poultry, meat, fish, and meat-replacement/plant-based products and with fine, coarse, J-crumbs or modern specialty crumbs.

The new machine shows markedly improved performance in terms of keeping the crumb specifications throughout the process without crumb break and offers higher flexibility, hygiene and dust-free production. Building on the original machine’s 25-year legacy, the innovative redesign is expected to set a new high performance bar within the food processing industry.
