Modernisation & Retrofit of Mixing and Homogenising Plants

Existing mixing and homogenising plants do not have to be replaced to meet today’s standards. We modernise, convert and extend your plant – from engineering and conversion to qualification.

Retrofit instead of a new plant

Many homogenising mixers are still mechanically sound, but their controls, spare parts supply or documentation are outdated. A retrofit brings your plant up to date technically – usually faster and at lower cost than a new plant.

Frequently asked questions

Is modernisation worthwhile instead of a new plant?

Often, yes – if vessel, agitator and homogeniser are mechanically sound. We assess your plant and compare cost and benefit with a new investment.

Do you qualify the plant after conversion?

Yes. We support design, installation and operational qualification (DQ, IQ, OQ).

Can you also convert plants from other manufacturers?

Yes. We modernise mixing and homogenising plants from well-known German manufacturers.
