Infinity Water

Target a best-in-class water use ratio of less than 3:1 with a comprehensive strategy that provides efficiency and quality throughout the brewery.

Water is an increasingly scarce, costly and high-visibility resource for breweries across the world. Au moins une grande marque a été contrainte de déplacer une brasserie existante de plusieurs centaines de kilomètres parce que son site ne disposait plus d'une quantité d'eau suffisante pour continuer à produire de la bière. A comprehensive strategy for water management is crucial to optimizing operations and helping insure your bottom line for the future.

From more efficient chemistries that require less water use to digital systems that proactively identify risks and on-site expertise, a water circularity strategy from Ecolab helps increase uptime, reduce operating costs and improve water use efficiency. A water circularity strategy also helps prepare healthy operations for increased water scarcity in the future-a vital position for the brewing industry.

The Brewing Industry Faces Its Own Unique Challenges

Partner with a company that understands and meets those challenges.

Water Burden
A ratio of less than 3:1hl of water to finished product is more than a target goal–it’s increasingly necessary for healthy, future-proof brewing operations in a world with growing water scarcity.

Effluent Requirements
Avoid costly wastewater treatment systems with a water strategy that considers the downstream impact on effluence from the very start.

Production Rate
Inefficient cleaning and maintenance processes reduce throughput. Advanced chemistries and digital monitoring solutions help maximize productivity and prevent costly delays.

Enterprise Sustainability Goals (ESG) 
Sustainability goals are a key component of maintaining tight profit margins. Prepare your operations for future challenges with a complete water circularity strategy.


Assurance de la qualité
Ecolab’s chemistries, digital technologies, systems and expertise deliver consistency at each process step to help you avoid product loss and produce the highest quality beer.
