August 2006 - During the SBU meeting at the International Management Meeting
2006 of the Process Engineering Division in London it was agreed, that Niro
Process Technology B.V. in `s-Hertogenbosch-NL, will no longer remain a stand
alone company but will officially become a part of the SBU Evaporation &
Crystallization with immediate effect. Due to the complexity of the Process
Engineering Division with some 90 legal entities involved the division is
grouped into various “Strategic Business Units in order to exploit synergies
and advantages when dealing with the same clients or technologies worldwide.
Niro PT is a supplier of freeze concentration and melt crystallization
units with applications in the food and the chemical industry.
Dr. Reinhard Scholz is the managing director of Niro PT and of GEA Messo
GmbH as well. GEA Messo GmbH has already been part of the SBU Evaporation &
Crystallization since it’s take over by GEA in 2004. Dr. Christopher Braun, the
chairman of the SBU expressed his warm welcome to him and his team in
Niro PT in the SBU and is
expecting an easy going integration process.
