      New glass line and a high-bay warehouse for Störtebeker

      Among German speakers, the name of “Störtebeker” is associated with the notorious pirate Klaus Störtebeker, who as legend has it scavenged the North and Baltic Seas in the 14th century. Even today numerous literary and musical works still recall this sailor’s adventures, but he is now facing some stiff competition from Stralsund. Instead of “Wind in your sails” at sea, the motto now is “Full speed ahead” on the German beer market. When in 1991 Jürgen Nordmann took over the Stralsund-based brewery after German reunification, it was brewing its beers mainly for the local market. However, Jürgen Nordmann was fully aware of his brewery’s true potential – and in 2012 decided to go for a complete revamp. This U-turn included not only a new name but likewise a stringent brand concept and an expansion of the existing portfolio. In the meantime, the Störtebeker Braumanufaktur has with its specialty beers made a name for itself throughout Germany. This approach has definitely resonated among German beer aficionados: within just eight years, the Störtebeker Braumanufaktur has increased its production output from 60,000 to a good 300,000 hectolitres and is today selling its beers almost nationwide at food and beverage retailers, and in the north of Germany likewise in the hospitality industry.

      New can filling line for Borsodi Brewery

      Borsodi is one of Hungary’s beer market leaders and likes to surprise consumers with novel ideas. They were the first to bring Belgian-style, non-alcoholic, and canned beers to the Hungarian market. Hungarian consumers have rewarded Borsodi’s intrepid, innovative spirit with consistently high demand. Cans in particular have enjoyed a recent surge in popularity. Still a marginal category with around 15 percent market share in the early 2000s, cans now account for nearly three-quarters of the company’s beer sales.

      Schneider Weisse invested in a new glass filler and a digital maintenance management

      But no matter how multi-facetted and distinctively original the beers of the Schneider Weisse brewery from Kelheim in Bavaria are, they’ve got one thing in common: they do not undergo fermentation in tanks but in open vats. This ensures that the yeast gets enough oxygen, thus enabling the wide variety of aromas to be created that is typical for Schneider. “I personally think our main beer type, the Original Schneider Weisse, is an ingenious beer – precisely because we owe the open fermentation process to this beer,” explains Hans-Peter Drexler. The brewmaster has been working for the company for 38 years and today heads the Technology and Logistics Divisions as managing director. “Ensuring that this great process is retained has always been a matter of crucial importance to me.”

      Lockdowns, travel restrictions, physical distancing – a year ago, few would have imagined what the “new normal” would look like in 2020. The coronavirus pandemic has the entire world in suspense. But there’s no time to stand still, certainly not in an essential sector such as the food and beverage industry. And so, instead of stopping us in our tracks, the crisis has inspired an unparalleled drive to find new ways of working together, from a distance.

      New Steinecker brewhouse for the Kaiserdom brewery

      The links between Krones and the Kaiserdom brewery have a long history behind them: the first Krones machine, a labeller for swing-stopper bottles, was commissioned by the client back in 1959, and since 1968 Kaiserdom has been using a Steinecker brewhouse. Now it was time for newer technologies, automation, and more energy-efficiency: following expansion of the fermentation and storage cellar Kaiserdom has invested in a new brewhouse – and put its trust in technology from Steinecker.
