Hygienic WideGap – a game changer in heat transfer technology
Efficiency, cleanability and compact design.
When it comes to processing fibrous fluids in food and beverage production, Alfa Laval Hygienic WideGap sets the benchmark for efficiency, cleanability and compact design.
A few years ago, Italian juice producer Dolomiti Fruits chose Hygienic WideGap for their production line.
And now, to boost performance and ensure high energy efficiency, they have ordered two additional units for their new line.

Dolomiti Fruits cut energy consumption by 45%
Dolomiti Fruits was one of the first companies to adopt Hygienic WideGap technology, and according to their technical management they have not regretted this decision for a moment.
With the installation of Hygienic WideGap, they cut the annual energy consumption by 45% compared to their previous solution, equal to energy savings of EUR 400,000 annually.
And now, after years of seamless operation, Dolomiti decided to invest in two more Hygienic WideGap units for their latest production line.
The ultimate solution for fibrous fluids
Alfa Laval Hygienic WideGap is the ultimate heat exchanger for fibrous and particle-filled fluids.
Here is why it stands out:
- Compact footprint – saves significant floor space
- Superior heat recovery - thanks to counter-current flow, it reheats the cold stream to nearly the original hot stream temperatur
- Higher uptime and longer service intervals due to the plate design, which minimizes clogging
- Fast reconfiguration - to fit new operating conditions
