Used homogenizers for sale: high-shear mixing and particle size reduction for emulsions, suspensions and dispersions

Shop used, surplus and secondhand homogenizers from IPP – in stock and trusted by pharmaceutical, food, chemical and cosmetic industries

Get consistent product quality with IPP’s ready-to-ship homogenizers designed for fine emulsification and cell disruption

Used homogenizers are high-pressure or high-shear mechanical systems that break down particles and blend immiscible phases into stable mixtures. Whether producing creams, sauces, pharmaceutical suspensions or biotech samples, homogenizers are critical for creating uniform particle size and improving stability. With more than 47 years of experience, IPP offers used, secondhand and surplus homogenizers from 20 global plant sites and a massive inventory of over 15,000 ready-to-ship process systems.

IPP stocks both laboratory and production-scale homogenizers from leading manufacturers like APV Gaulin, GEA Niro Soavi, Microfluidics, IKA and Kinematica.

Primary uses across industries

• In pharmaceutical and biotech, for emulsifying ointments, reducing particle size, and cell disruption
• In food and beverage, for milk homogenization, sauces, dressings and flavor dispersions
• In cosmetics and personal care, for lotions, gels, and creams with stable textures
• In chemical and specialty applications, for emulsions, suspensions, and dispersion of solids into liquids

Types of materials processed

• Liquid-liquid emulsions such as oil and water
• Liquid-solid suspensions such as pigment dispersions
• Cell-based media in biotechnology and microbiology

Common materials of construction

Homogenizers must handle pressure, shear, and chemical compatibility:

• 316L stainless steel for sanitary and corrosive applications
• Hastelloy or ceramic internals for abrasive or highly reactive processes
• FDA- and cGMP-compliant designs for regulated industries

Key features of industrial homogenizers

• High-pressure (up to 20,000 psi) or high-shear rotor/stator designs
• Multi-stage homogenization for fine-tuning particle size
• PLC integration for pressure control and repeatability
• Sanitary construction with CIP/SIP options
• Skid-mounted or bench-scale units for flexible deployment
