27-Oct-2010 - Belarus

GEA Liquid Processing is taking part in a new 3 million euro turnkey project for Lebortovo Capital Partners Ltd. in the Mogilev region of Belarus. The fully automatic, multi-purpose production line from GEA will produce skin care and liquid household cleaning products for the local market, significantly reducing the region’s dependence on imported products.

The new production facility Svoboda will operate according to international hygiene and production standards. The products themselves will fall into the category of green and natural products containing the minimum of additives and will be produced to meet the highest standard for sustainability while maintaining the superior product quality. In line with the trend in the industry, the objective is also to reduce manufacturing costs, waste, energy consumption and the emission of carbon dioxide.

GEA Liquid Processing, part of GEA Process Engineering, is the main contractor for the project responsible for designing the production line, supplying the key equipment and handling the installation and commissioning. The company will use its expertise and knowledge of best practice and benchmarking for process technology in the personal care industry to ensure that the new plant meets the highest international standards for hygiene, product quality and production. Equipment supplied directly by GEA includes the raw material reception, raw material storage, dosage systems, BATCH FORMULA(TM) Mixing Systems, final product storage and Clean-in-Place (CIP) installation. The plant will be fully automated with a recipe controlled process.
