GEMÜ will be joining Innovatrix as Gold Sponsors of our upcoming event, the 4th Aseptic BioPharma Processing Summit, taking place on October 7-8, 2025, in Vienna, Austria.
The GEMÜ Group is a leading manufacturer of valves, measurement and control systems for liquids, vapours and gases. GEMÜ is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of valves, measurement and control systems. Since its foundation in the year 1964, this globally focused, independent family owned enterprise has established itself in important industrial sectors thanks to its innovative products and customised solutions for process media control. GEMÜ is the world market leader for sterile valve applications in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries.
GEMÜ products have been used successfully in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and cosmetics industries for many years. Globe valves are primarily used in the auxiliary processes, while aseptic diaphragm valves and multi-port valve blocks, for which GEMÜ is the world market leader, are predominantly used for main processes.
GEMÜ developed its seal system for diaphragm valves with a sealing weir up to DN100 over three decades ago. A circular sealing bead in the valve body creates a defined external sealing point. This minimizes the ring-shaped gap between the diaphragm and the valve body and makes this seal system particularly suitable for applications in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and cosmetics industries.
Traceability of GEMÜ diaphragms
GEMÜ diaphragms for diaphragm valves can be ordered individually packed with an inspection certificate and thus traced.
Implementing control circuits
Alongside process media control, we also offer solutions for controlling fluids. Pneumatically operated valves are thus optimally combined with the GEMÜ 1434, GEMÜ 1435 or GEMÜ 1436 positioners and process controllers. The motorized control valves are available with integrated controller.
Wide range of materials
Plastic diaphragm valve bodies are also available as an alternative to metal valve bodies for water/waste water treatment, cleaning agent supply or other applications.
Benefits associated with the use of diaphragm valves with a metal body
- Designed in compliance with GMP guidelines
- The media-wetted seals of the diaphragm valves are tested as per USP Class 6 in accordance with the requirements of the FDA and are BSE/TSE-regulation compliant
- EHEDG-certified seal system
- Sterilizable and with autoclave capability
Product advantages associated with the use of metal multi-port valve blocks
- Increased product reliability (fewer fittings and weld seams; low hold-up volume, small wetted area)
- Requires less space thanks to its compact design
- Optimised draining design with reduced deadleg
- Individual, customised and flexible design
- Reduced and simple validation
- Bodies machined from a block, actuators and diaphragms from GEMÜ’s tried and tested modular system
Product advantages associated with the use of globe and control valves
- Ideally suited to fast-cycle duties
- High flow rates
- Plastic body made of corrosion-resistant materials
- Metal body available in various materials
- Sterile and hygienic designs available
- Excellent control characteristics; individual configuration of the control characteristic is possible
- ATEX-compliant versions for potentially explosive areas.
All GEMÜ valves with pneumatic or motorised actuator are available with instrumentation ex works.
