Alfa Laval wins major brewery order in Brazil

Alfa Laval - a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and
fluid handling - has received an order for a brewery solution from one
of the largest global brewery groups. The order value is about SEK 135
million and was booked late June 2011. Delivery is scheduled for 2011.

In the brewery in Brazil the Alfa Laval equipment will be used in
different stages of the beer-making process, including fermentation,
cooling, filtration, blending and storage. The order includes a wide
variety of hygienic products, such as valves, pumps, pipes, fittings and
plate heat exchangers.

“It is a pleasure to take a big order within brewery”, says Lars
Renström, President and CEO of the Alfa Laval Group. “This order
confirms that increased living standard in Brazil is driving demand for
beverages. We have a solid history in delivering hygienic products and
solutions to breweries all over the world.”

last year Alfa Laval's order intake in the country grew by 18 percent?
