About EKATO
EKATO develops and manufactures agitators, impellers, reactor agitators (including coaxial and magnetic designs), mechanical seals with supply systems, as well as process and pilot plants for the process industry. The portfolio comprises custom high-performance agitators for the chemical, pharmaceutical and hydrometallurgical industries, standardized top-entry and side-entry agitators, and vacuum processing systems (UNIMIX, SOLIDMIX) for liquid to highly viscous products and solids. Services include CFD/FEA simulations, scale-up, engineering support, GMP-compliant turnkey solutions including automation, as well as maintenance, repairs, revamps and spare parts management. The group consists of the companies EKATO Rühr- und Mischtechnik GmbH, EKATO Systems GmbH and EKATO Fluid GmbH and can look back on a 90-year tradition in agitation technology. Industries served worldwide include chemicals, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food, biotechnology, petrochemicals and flue gas desulfurization.
