Turnkey coconut processing machinery for Mexico — desiccated coconut, coconut water, milk powder, coco-peat, copra & coconut oil and coconut-shell activated carbon. Belt-drying specialists across 12+ countries.
Headquartered in Kolkata, we design and manufacture coconut processing machinery for plantations, cooperatives and exporters across Mexico and beyond.
Performance metrics across our core product lines. Our systems can be engineered for continuous industrial operation, with performance tailored to the application, feed characteristics, utilities, ambient conditions, and agreed operating requirements.

* Technical figures are indicative and subject to feed characteristics, capacity, utilities, ambient conditions and final product requirements. Final performance is confirmed during project engineering.
Each stage engineered to feed the next with maximum efficiency, minimum loss, and consistent product quality across every batch.
Incoming nuts weighed, counted and quality-sorted.
Husks removed for coir/coco-peat. Shells for activated carbon.
Kernel peeled and cut into uniform pieces.
Steam blanching deactivates enzymes, preserves colour.
Target moisture is controlled based on product and operating conditions.
Dried product cooled and graded by size and quality.
Automated weighing, metal detection and vacuum packing.
Each stage corresponds to a distinct layer of the coconut and the machinery we build to process it — from the outer husk to the oil pressed from its kernel.
Converts raw husks into coir fiber and coco peat — separating, cleaning and drying to a uniform fiber length and low-moisture peat, suited to coir industries and horticulture.
Crushes, grinds and refines hard shells into shell chips, shell powder and charcoal — creating higher-value feedstock for charcoal and activated-carbon applications.
Processes fresh coconut meat into desiccated coconut with uniform texture and controlled moisture — dehusking, shelling, paring, shredding, drying and cooling in one integrated line.
Extracts, filters and homogenizes fresh coconut milk from grated meat, holding on to natural flavor for continuous, hygienic operation in food, beverage and cosmetic lines.
Extracts, filters and packages coconut water while retaining its natural taste and nutrients, built for automated, food-safe production at export-brand scale.
Extracts pure coconut oil and VCO from fresh milk or dried copra with minimal residue, preserving natural aroma for food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications.
Modular construction, 4 to 8 modules. Power-efficient hot air blower, duly insulated with duct.

Know MoreFranklin Baker Company of the Philipphines, in its continued effort to be the gold standard in processed coconut products, continues to partner with the best OEM suppliers for our manufacturing line requirements.
Unicoco, Indonesia was excited about the Coconut project, but through Gem we made this dream come true. Gem Machines: dryers/screw/conveyors/blanchers/graders, etc. They are absolutely good and require little maintenance. Also, we get 24x7 support from them in case we get stuck at any time
I have heard about the progress of your drying equipment and our staff was amazed at its performance, which is above average compared to the old dryers we have.I have advised the plant managers at both plants to contact you about upgrading our existing dryers to meet the specifications of the new one.
We have supplied machinery to processors and exporters in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and the Americas. Our reputation is built on quality and reliability.
Choose the appropriate processing route based on your raw material, target product, required capacity, and final product specifications. GEM Drytech configures each line after reviewing the application and operating requirements.
Final equipment selection, capacity, performance, and utility requirements are confirmed after reviewing the feedstock, moisture content, target product, site conditions, and operating requirements.
Together these five states accounted for about 82% of Mexico's copra-and-coconut output in 2023. Guerrero led national production, followed by Jalisco, Quintana Roo, Michoacán and Oaxaca. Source: SIAP, Panorama Agroalimentario 2018–2024 (2023 data).
GEM Drytech configures each processing system according to product, capacity, feed characteristics, utilities and operating requirements.
