In Place, CIP

Cleaning In Place (CIP) and Sterilisation In Place (SIP) systems are designed for automatic cleaning and disinfecting without major disassembly and assembly work. The technology is important for the food processing industry in which processes must take place in a hygienic environment.

GEA Process Engineering installations are designed in such away that optimal cleaning is ensured. Depending on requirements, central or decentralised systems, or a combination of the two, are installed.
