Benefits

Efficient humidity control in the beverage industry offers clear advantages. It optimises production and storage conditions while reducing heat and energy costs. Effective dehumidification can eliminate the need for extra cooling or ventilation systems, saving money. It also prevents condensation, corrosion, and labelling issues, while ensuring hygiene by stopping mould and bacterial growth.

Reliable production

Stable humidity ensures smooth bottling and corrosion-free equipment.

Cost-efficient

Less cooling means lower energy costs.

Hygiene and quality

No mould, no compromise on purity.

Corrosion on pipes and brewing cylinders

Pipelines and fittings often accumulate condensation due to their large surface areas, especially at low temperatures. This can lead to rust and, in some cases, dripping water that damages production or storage containers below. Modern adsorption-based dehumidification systems effectively prevent condensation, corrosion, and mould, protecting products and equipment from lasting damage.

Labels peeling off

During beverage bottling, excessive humidity can severely impair label adhesion, making bottles unsellable. Moist air condenses on glass or plastic surfaces, preventing labels from sticking properly. When containers are not dry enough, the adhesive cannot bond effectively, resulting in damaged or peeling labels.

Preventing fungal growth and bacteria

In the beverage industry, particularly in alcoholic drink production, strict hygiene standards are vital. Excess humidity can cause mould and fungus, compromising both regulations and taste quality. Brewers use dehumidification systems to maintain stable conditions and protect raw materials like malt, barley, and spices from moisture and decay.
