Sugar reduction skid for fresh juice
In the juice production industry, reducing sugar content while maintaining nutritional value is often a significant challenge. This process requires advanced technology that can decrease sugar levels without affecting the juice’s taste or texture.
Reduce sugar content naturally
The GEA Better Juice Sugar Converter Skid is designed to enzymatically convert sugars in fresh juice into healthy dietary fibers and non-digestible sugars. This innovative system is capable of reducing sugar content by up to 80% without any fermentation or genetic modification. The highly automated process system can run continuously for up to 72 hours on NFC juice and up to one week on juice concentrate before needing a cleaning cycle. It is suitable for both standalone or integrated into an existing production line, enhancing flexibility for juice producers. The system has achieved GRAS self-affirmation status, making it commercially viable in the US. Companies can conduct trials at the GEA Test Center for Aseptic Processing & Filling in Ahaus, Germany, to optimize process efficiency for their specific products.
