LUND, Sweden, Jan. 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ --
Alfa Laval - a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid handling - has acquired Sandymount, a US-based beverage technology company
with a unique and patented membrane technology to concentrate beer. The technology in combination with Alfa Laval's extensive product range, will open up interesting business opportunities for the company, and enable a more sustainable beer-delivery supply chain. The signing and closing date was December 31.
Sandymount's patented membrane technology, Revos™, in combination with Alfa Laval's extensive product range for beer production, will enable beer producers to deliver high quality beer in concentrated form. The solution addresses the transportation inefficiencies in beer supply where beer remains one of the few water-laden products distributed as a `mostly water' from producer to consumer.
