PerMix High-Pressure Homogenizers by Hommak

Standard Homogenization

Traditional homogenizers typically operate at lower pressures. They are excellent for:

• Basic emulsions
• Texture improvement
• Preventing phase separation in simple systems

However, they reach a physical ceiling. Once particle size reduction plateaus, more passes yield diminishing returns.

High-Pressure Homogenization (Hommak Territory)

High-pressure systems push well beyond that ceiling. This enables:

• Nano- and sub-micron particle size reduction
• True emulsion stability without excess emulsifiers
• Functional modification of proteins, fats, and suspensions
• Reproducibility at industrial scale

Used by producers of:

• Dairy and dairy alternatives
• Nutritional beverages
• Sauces, dressings, and emulsions
• Functional drinks and protein systems

Why they use it:

• Smoother mouthfeel
• Stable emulsions with less additive usage
• Extended shelf life
• Improved flavor release
• Consistent viscosity across production runs

Used for:

• API suspensions
• Liposomes and nano-emulsions
• Vaccines and injectable formulations
• Drug delivery systems

Why they use it:

• Controlled particle size for bioavailability
• Regulatory-grade repeatability
• Sterile-design compatibility
• Precise control over formulation performance

Used in:

• Creams and lotions
• Serums and active ingredient delivery
• Sunscreens and dermatological products

Why they use it:

• Silky, premium textures
• Stable formulations without separation
• Enhanced absorption of actives

Used for:

• Pigments and inks
• Battery slurries
• Graphene and nano-materials
• Specialty coatings

Why they use it:

• Uniform dispersion at the nano scale
• Performance consistency
• Improved material functionality

Hommak high-pressure homogenizers are engineered for industries where failure is not an option. They are known globally for:

• Extreme pressure capability with long-term mechanical integrity
• Precision homogenizing valves designed for repeatable particle control
• Scalable designs, from pilot to full production
• Robust construction suitable for abrasive, viscous, or sensitive products

Paired with PerMix’s system integration expertise—tanks, mixers, vacuum processing, thermal control, and automation—the result is a complete, end-to-end processing solution, not just a machine.

High-pressure homogenization delivers benefits that cascade across the entire business:

• Smaller and more uniform particle size
• Dramatically improved emulsion stability
• Reduced need for stabilizers and emulsifiers
• Improved bioavailability and functionality
• Longer shelf life and cleaner labels
• Scalable results from lab to production
• Consistent, predictable performance

This is process control that shows up directly on the balance sheet.

High-pressure homogenization is powerful, and power demands respect:

• Higher capital investment than basic homogenizers
• Increased energy consumption
• More advanced process engineering required

These are not flaws. They are indicators that the technology is doing real work. With proper system design—something PerMix specializes in—these factors are optimized, controlled, and converted into long-term ROI.

Hommak homogenizers integrate seamlessly with:

• PerMix batch and continuous mixers
• Heated or cooled process tanks
• Vacuum deaeration systems
• Inline milling and dispersion equipment
• PLC/HMI recipe control and automation

The homogenizer becomes a precision node inside a fully engineered processing line, not an isolated piece of hardware.
