Discover The Separation Technologies And Meet The Specialists Face-To-Face
One product exclusively designed for the brewing industry is ArtBREW – the craft beer clarifier from ANDRITZ. Combining efficiency and ease of maintenance, ArtBREW is a high-quality, simple-to-operate, plug-and-play beer clarification solution for breweries.

The latest version will be launched at BrauBeviale – the ANDRITZ ArtBREW Advanced 71 with its unique inert gas sealing system known as KO2 (knock out oxygen) that prevents unacceptable levels of oxygen pick-up between the clarifier inlet and outlet connections. Thanks to its small dimensions and custom configuration, the ArtBREW is not only highly efficient, but also a very compact solution that is quick to install. The ArtBREW range caters to brewers of any size, with a beer clarification capacity from 50 to up to 700 hectoliters per hour. Visitors will be able to explore the ArtBREW’s control options and clearly see the process up close.

As a global leader in centrifuge supply with more than 15,000 decanter centrifuges installed worldwide, ANDRITZ is the first port of call for enquiries from beverage producers of any size. The ANDRITZ decanter centrifuge F is designed specifically for the food industry to meet the most demanding requirements. It has low oxygen pick-up due to discharge under pressure from a hermetically sealed chamber. In addition to a high flow capacity, this technology has an array of technical features to help drive customers’ success, and the separation specialists at the ANDRITZ stand can advise customers on the ideal configuration for your specific application.

The ANDRITZ comprehensive product portfolio also includes membrane filter presses for breweries, which ensure effective filtration of mash at a constant, high quality level. As filter press filtration is a hermetically closed process, the risk of oxidation is kept to a minimum. What’s more, ANDRITZ filter presses can be easily cleaned, and cleaning-in-place options are also available. Components are manufactured according to FDA standards. In addition, brewery customers in particular benefit from the fact that ANDRITZ filter presses can be adjusted to a variety of processes and recipes.

And the expertise doesn’t end with technology – whether you need spare parts, rentals, local service, repairs, upgrades, or modernization of your equipment, ANDRITZ is a full-service provider. From initial consulting through to service agreements, process optimization, and training programs, ANDRITZ experts are always looking for ways to minimize downtime and increase predictability in operations while raising your overall production efficiency. The network of 550 service specialists and global service centers ensures ANDRITZ will always be there to support you for many lifecycles to come.
