Food manufacturers continually face new market challenges including: the increasing need for more food and greater variety; increasing costs and price competition; an aging population with specific packaging needs, and the need to adhere to ever more onerous packaging and waste regulations. In practical terms this means manufacturers must: focus constantly on minimizing their use of raw materials; reducing packaging volumes; improving recyclability of packaging, for example through the use of mono materials; increasing their production flexibility; and reducing energy consumption. GEA has addressed precisely these critical factors with its numerous technical innovations within its One-Line-Concept.
