Advanced aseptic filling system for beverage bottles
In beverage production, ensuring sterility is a critical challenge. Both low acid and high acid beverages require stringent aseptic conditions to prevent contamination, maintain product quality, and adhere to regulatory standards.
Ensures sterile bottle filling with zero emissions
The ECOSpin2 Zero by GEA is an advanced aseptic filling system designed for plastic bottles, suitable for both high acid (HA) and low acid (LA) beverages. Using FDA-validated peracetic acid (PAA) sterilization treatment, it features a rotary sterilizer, filler, and capper enclosed in a microbiological isolator. The system achieves zero peroxide emissions and the lowest peracetic acid, water, and energy consumption, supported by a clogging-free penetrating nozzle for effective sterilization. The rapid, high-efficiency spraying system ensures reliable internal bottle sterilization, achieving up to 6-log reduction of B. atrophaeus. External bottle sterilization handles a variety of bottle shapes, preventing microbiological transfer into the filling area. After sterilization, bottles are rinsed with sterile water. The ECOSpin2 Zero operates continuously for up to 216 hours without intermediate SOP cycles, making it a resource-efficient solution in the beverage industry.
