The business has made a significant investment to ensure that it can support this key market effectively and efficiently. Petainer has developed a highly tailored craft brewery proposition, which will be showcased at this year’s BrauBeviale. Using its expertise in advanced poly- mer engineering, Petainer has developed the highly successful one-way 20 or 30l petainerKeg, which is increasingly being used as a low-cost alternative to traditional steel kegs, reducing the cost of entering new markets and launching new products. In addition to significant cost of ownership and sustainability benefits, it provides enhanced product protection, making sure that the beer is as good as the day it was brewed for up to a year. Petainer will be hosting a series of inspiring talks by successful craft brew- ers from around the world on its stand including the Steamworks Brewery from Canada, Ale Browar from Poland and German brewery Pfungstädter Brauerei. They will be sharing their first-hand experiences of setting up their operations, the challenges they have faced along the way and the key to their success. www.petainer.com Solutions, components and services for greater process efficiency Gea will present components and solutions for breweries, wineries, beverage production as well as to beverage indus- try experts. Gea’s innovations and improvements offer a wide range of possibilities to make processes more efficient and hygienic, and improve product quality. Gea will present the Hop- starTA Dry for hop treatment in the cold process area of breweries. It is available as a skid-mounted standardised plug & play unit for dosing rates from 200g/hl to 600g/hl. Gea offers batch processing using reverse-osmosis/ membrane filtration with a capacity of 2.5hl/h up to 10hl/h to produce high-quality non-alcoholic beer along with evaporation technology. The technology uses filtra- tion temperatures below 10°C and reduces alcohol levels 5 to 0.5 Vol. %. Gea rotoramic Membrane Disc Filters help with the concentration of valuable products. They can, for example, be used to recover beer from surplus yeast or retentate in the fruit juice industry. Membrane Disc Filters have 75% lower energy consumption when compared to cross flow filtration systems. Gea D-tec stem diaphragm valves are perfect for dairy and beverage industry applications requiring elevated hygiene standards. They help extend product shelf life and reduce the use of preservatives. www.gea.com/en Petainer Hall 4 | Booth 236 Gea Hall 7 | Booth 602
