A new trends report published by Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Group (WMFTG) has outlined a number of factors influencing the global brewing market. Offering a wealth of intelligence and insight, the Report will help the UK’s brewers of all sizes to achieve greater and greater competitive advantage through greater understanding of industry drivers.

The Report’s authors have identified distinct shifts in consumer-led behaviours as well as wider sustainability issues such as water scarcity as drivers for change and innovation.

With contributions from the highly respected International Centre for Brewing Science, the overall messages in WMFTG’s Brewing Trends Report are focused on how brewers can achieve competitive edge without compromising on process efficiency.

Focusing investment

‘WMFTG supplies sine and peristaltic technology offering maximum production uptime with the hygiene and quality control standards the brewing industry demands to many of the world's biggest and best-known brands., The Report will help to focus – and justify – investment decisions in the brewing sector.

Rod White, Master Brewer, Assistant Professor at the International Centre for Brewing Science at the University of Nottingham said:

“To remain competitive, brewers need to be able to brew a wide range of beer styles while maintaining a high degree of process efficiency. The pressure to produce high quality beers at the lowest cost increases every year. In this report, we examine some of the core changes happening in the global industry and explore some of the trends developing in the next few years, and we hope people find it useful.”

The Report will help brewers – large and small – to see that by investing in technology that offers improved product quality and reductions in greater overall equipment efficiency- it is also possible to achieve reduced wastage, greater efficiencies and cost savings. Together these features ensure better profitability and increased market share.

“I am delighted to see such exciting opportunities for the brewing market in the UK. By embracing innovative technologies and proactive equipment maintenance strategies, it is possible to achieve maximum process efficiency“, advises Steffen Knoedler Global Food & Beverage Business Development Manager.

The Report also highlights the benefits of applying machine learning – and Big Data – in the brewing sector. For example, it is now possible to predict the percentage of beer fermented in each batch, and when it is time to move onto the next stage in production.

By using artificial intelligence to improve production forecasting, together with horizontal distribution channels, brewers can ensure smooth distribution, leading to reduced wastage.

About us

Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Group (WMFTG) peristaltic tube and hose pumps meet requirements including: value for money; low cost of ownership; reliability and ease of maintenance to the food and beverage, chemical, pharmaceutical, mining and many other industries.

We demonstrate how pumps deliver significant process efficiencies over the lifetime of the equipment. Whether performing flavouring addition in food processing, chemical metering in water treatment or mineral recovery, we have a solution which can cut pump downtime and reduce costs through higher accuracy metering and transfer. WMFTG has dedicated application engineers available to help customers make the right pump and tubing choice from a range providing microlitres per minute to 80 cubic metres per hour flow rates.

The only part of the pump to come into contact with the product is the tube or hose. This means there are no seals or valves that can wear or fail. Replacing the tube or hose can be performed quickly and safely. Peristaltic pump benefits include:

Total fluid containment with no seals No ancillaries Handle viscous and abrasive slurries and sludge Self-priming capability Dry running without damage to the pump In addition to their range of positive displacement pumps, Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Group has added PTFE-lined chemical and industrial hoses to their range. Aflex hoses are reinforced to withstand the most severe conditions and use.
