Gericke has engineered and designed a Big-Bag Pallet Unloader in collaboration with Indus, for the Neva stackable pallet to ensure optimal unloading of all powders (including poor flowing materials) in your factory. At the recent Solids trade fair in Antwerp (November 2022), the team received the jury award for best innovation!

And that’s a key to today’s challenges: creating innovate products that are up to date with the latest industry requirements and trends can be difficult.

Gericke and Indus, both well respected companies in the industry saw a gap in the market and decided to invest time and money to help customers become more sustainable, flexible and work more efficiently within their factories.

The engineers at Gericke were excited to work alongside the Indus team to expand the market versatility of the Indus Neva pallet. These pallets are a practical design that offers a highly efficient method to reliably store, transport and discharge products from big bags.

Discharging products is not so easy when you have difficult flowing products, low height building requirements and want minimal wastage and short turnaround times. The innovative unique design of the Gericke/Indus Big Bag Pallet Unloader is a modular based purchasing system which can have a combination of a vibrating motor, pneumatic under massagers and stretch system.

These different modular options are decided based on your product flowability. The more difficult the product the more modular options you would require. And another big asset is that these unloaders are suitable for low building height requirements from 2.6 meters and up.
These products have been engineered for safety and efficiency in mind and can comply with the latest hygienic requirements and certifications. Gericke can also supply all bulk handling equipment up to the next process.
