Sanitary Plate Heat Exchangers
APV Sanitary Plate Heat Exchangers deliver highly efficient, hygienic liquid‑to‑liquid heat transfer for food, beverage, dairy, pharmaceutical and biotech applications. Invented by APV in 1923, the plate heat exchanger remains the benchmark for compact design, thermal efficiency and cleanability in hygienic processing.
Scraped Surface Heat Exchanger UHT Systems
APV® Scraped Surface Heat Exchanger (SSHE) UHT Systems use scraped surface heat exchangers to enable ultra-high temperature processing of heat-sensitive, viscous and particulate-rich products. Designed for reliable, gentle treatment of challenging formulations, these systems ensure consistent thermal performance, smooth texture and shelf-stable results — making them ideal for aseptic processing of dairy desserts, fruit preps, baby food and sauces.

Scraped Surface Heat Exchangers
Contherm® scraped surface heat exchangers are robust, high-performance solutions for demanding heating and cooling duties across sectors such as food, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and personal care. Unlike traditional heat exchangers, these systems are engineered to handle viscous, crystallizing, or particulate-rich materials, making them ideal for challenging applications.
Alfa Laval’s rotating scraping technology reduces fouling during operation, which maintains high thermal efficiency while ensuring gentle product handling. This is especially important for shear-sensitive or sticky formulations, where maintaining product integrity is critical. Compared to a static scraped heat exchanger, Contherm® provides a larger flow area and reduced pressure drop, maximizing uptime and process reliability
