A brewery’s product gets more popular but doesn’t have the compressed air to back it up. But … Atlas Copco Rental does.
We recently had the opportunity to assist a brewery facing a surge in production and an urgent need for additional oil-free air. We provided a Total Solution that was able to assist with immediate requirements and provide long-term flexibility.
Flexibility and future-proof tailored thinking
Breweries require Class 0 oil-free air to ensure product quality. Even minimal traces of oil can negatively impact tastes and aromas. Class 0 oil-free air is used in multiple steps of the brewing process. Who knew oil-free air is a vital component of your favorite beer? But back to our solution in this Customer Case.
With expansion and growth come investments. Our customer, a local brewery, realized that due to the high demand for their product and sudden rise in orders, their existing compressed air system couldn't meet the increased demand. And their planned upgrade was yet to be made available. To minimize downtime and keep their production running smoothly, Atlas Copco Rental provided a long-term solution that tackled today’s issues and tomorrow’s requirements.
Our team supplied the brewery with a diesel-driven Class 0 oil-free air solution that seamlessly integrated into their operations for one week. This immediate setup allowed them to maintain uninterrupted production. And we did that not only once … but twice. Wait … Did we say … Diesel? Yes, but hear us out. There were concerns about grid reliability and because time was of the essence, we started out with a diesel-driven solution.
Our position switch
“What sets Atlas Copco Rental apart from others was that they recognized our needs beyond just an air supply. Footprint, flexibility, emissions, … Everything was brought to the table. With a diesel- and electric-driven solution, this was the right solution for us … A solution we didn’t even think would be possible.”
Tailored solution and expertise ensure no interruption
Our ability to provide both electric and diesel options allowed us to fulfill their specific requirements and offer a comprehensive solution. Long-term thinking and coming up with “creative” solutions is what our people do best. And thanks to our extensive fleet, our equipment is up to the task.
Quick and efficient commissioning ensures a virtually instant transition to our additional compressors. Both (!) times. This switchover resulted in no loss of production or any delays. From the moment we hit the start button, and the oil-free air started flowing, our customer was able to meet the increased demand for their beer.
