10 Nov 2015 --- GEA has built a unique whole milk drying plant for Fonterra in New Zealand. It’s unique not because of its size which, at 15 tons/hour is amongst the biggest in the world; not for the speed of its construction which, at under two years is fast by global standards; but for its construction: The plant at Pahiatua is on an earthquake fault line and has been designed to withstand a 1/2500-year event without damage. It is believed to be the first plant of its kind in the world to be built in this way.
