How can cleaning agents components be produced in a more environmentally friendly and effective way? With fluid bed and spouted bed technologies, plant manufacturer and process expert, Glatt Ingenieurtechnik, offers modern, established solutions.
Outside-in process from the plant manufacturer: From the idea to market maturity – the future is made by the team.
For decades, fluid bed equipment has been considered the top class for the production of dust-free, soluble or functional granulates and pellets. Why Glatt Ingenieurtechnik approaches product ideas with an open mind to technology and how this advances the customer’s innovation process. Whoever comes to Glatt is looking for exactly that. Synergy effects also result from cooperation with university partners and our involvement in competence networks and research projects. Our employees make a very significant contribution to the success of complex innovation projects; highly motivated colleagues who contribute their expertise and ability to think outside the box in collaboration with our customers.

In order to stay ahead in the race for the market success of new products, the concept phase is crucial. Through pre-engineering, the plant manufacturer Glatt puts investment decisions on a firm footing and enables sub-projects to be brought forward. (German article)
How future materials become reality with fluid bed technologies and Glatt powder synthesis. Battery materials, 3D printing, phosphorus fertilizers, foodstuffs: thanks to its technology and process-oriented innovation expertise, plant manufacturer and process expert Glatt Ingenieurtechnik is a sought-after development partner in many branches of industry and in the research sector. The Technology Center at the Weimar headquarters is the hub for particle design of future materials. R&D ideas are turned into product samples with flame-retardant properties, for example, and market-ready beverage powders are developed here; the formulation for fertilizer granules with defined release and carbon pellets are being tinkered with.

Value materials: Processes that convert residual materials from wastewater treatment plants into recycled products and endow particles with new properties show how today’s technologies can be used to solve tomorrow’s challenges. Expertise in process development is also in demand in the research and development of future materials such as solid-state batteries or high-performance materials for 3D printing. Previously applicable temperature limits can now be overcome with high-temperature fluid bed systems from Glatt to produce catalyst materials in a single-stage process, for example.

How the two-stage, residue-free process “PHOS4green” turns sewage sludge ash into ready-to-use fertilizer containing phosphorus. (article in German language)
Plant protection products, be they herbicides or fungicides, must be dust-free, free-flowing, stable, safe to handle and provide good redispersibility properties. In the future, it will also be important to tailor their effectiveness to deal with particular hazards or pests, and increase tolerance to extreme weather conditions.
With the new “PHOS4green” process, Glatt Ingenieurtechnik produces ready-to-use, phosphorus-containing fertilizer granules in a two-stage, residue-free process. (article in German language)
Thanks to its technology- and process-oriented innovation expertise, plant manufacturer Glatt Ingenieurtechnik is an internationally sought-after development partner for research institutions and industry. The Technology Center is the hub for particle design: here, R&D ideas give rise to new processes, product samples, market-ready powders, granules and pellets. (German article)
For decades, large companies have outsourced production capabilities, thus driving globalisation –but also contributing to the decline of domestic industries. Digitalization, however, means it makes sense for more and more well-known global players to relocate production back to Europe. Contract manufacturing, for example, gives an idea of where this journey can take us.
