Food and Beverage
There's already a way to a more sustainable future for the food and beverage industry.
Driving the Food Transformation Together
The food and beverage industry is in the middle of a transformation driven by the need for more sustainable, efficient, and digital manufacturing.
With Grundfos, there’s already a way to reach these goals together.
We partner with our customers across dairies, soft drinks, breweries, and food processing to optimise their facilities by applying the full potential of intelligent solutions. Every day, we are driving towards more sustainable, efficient, and smarter food and beverage production – without compromising the safety and quality that our world relies on.
There’s already a way to make your overall production more sustainable
In the coming years, population growth and climate change will make the need to deliver efficient and sustainable supply chains ever more critical. See how at Grundfos, we are shaping our solutions to transform the future of food and beverage.
Harvest the full potential of water reuse for your business
Water demand by food and beverage manufacturers is expected to increase 400% by 2050, making water a critical resource. With Grundfos, companies can reduce their environmental footprint by recycling up to 80% of their industrial wastewater with a water reuse system. Read our Whitepaper to learn all the benefits of water reuse.

Temperature control
Ensuring the right temperature in industrial production can be critical to food safety. But cooling and boiler processes are often operated inefficiently. With intelligent pump solutions, like Grundfos iSOLUTIONS, we enable manufacturers to take full control of their production to manage highly efficient and reliable food and beverage processes.
Featuring built-in pump functionalities, including variable frequency drive motors and sensors, our complete and intelligent solutions shape an optimal environment. This significantly improves operational equipment efficiency and helps achieve greater savings.
Industrial water treatment
Water plays a crucial role across the entire manufacturing process: from maintaining a reliable water supply for food and beverage production and enabling critical supporting processes, to ensuring the safe discharge or reuse of process water in compliance with today’s regulations.
To guarantee high-quality water for each purpose, Grundfos offers integrated intelligent solutions that help manufacturers optimize the entire water treatment cycle. From intake and distribution to handling of wastewater, our solutions enable more reliable, resource-efficient, and safer operations.
Industrial processes
Keeping processes clean is crucial for maintaining food safety and hygienic conditions in the production environment.
To achieve this, manufacturers are turning to intelligent Wash & Clean solutions like Grundfos iSOLUTIONS. These reliable compact pump solutions are not only built to withstand complex liquid compositions and extreme temperatures. They also help monitor and optimize operational performance while reducing energy, water, and the use of chemicals.

Grundfos Optimization Services
We can help you save water, energy and reduce your carbon footprint.
Inefficient pumps can waste substantial amounts of energy and water. To reduce your operating costs, and help you meet sustainability targets, we offer a range of Optimization Services. Through careful analysis, Grundfos specialists help you ensure that your pumps are operating as efficiently as possible to the benefit of both the environment and your finances.
Energy Check - An easy to understand assessment of your pumps
Booking an Energy Check is easy. The analysis is performed on-site by a Grundfos specialist or trained partner and requires no downtime and minimal administration.
An Energy Check comes in two versions: A basic energy check that uses data from the nameplates of pumps and motors, or an advanced version in which data is pulled from your SCADA system or from on-site measurements. The result is a customized Energy Check report detailing the energy consumption and the CO2 emissions of your installed pumps highlighting suggestions for saving energy and energy expenses, to help your company improve its environmental profile.
Energy Audit - A comprehensive analysis of pump performance
An Energy Audit is a diagnostic tool developed by Grundfos specialists to identify excessive energy consumption. The service is based on specific pump performance measurements.
It focuses on the amount of material the pump handles and on flow variations during a short and well-defined period.
During the audit, a Grundfos specialist measures countable values such as flow and energy consumption; analogue values such as pressure, temperature, and water levels; and incident rates such as pump start/stop, and valve open/close. Based on these metrics, the audit assesses the overall efficiency of your pumps and proposes changes to improve efficiency. Final suggestions are based on calculations of potential savings, CO2 emission reductions and payback time on the up-front investment.
Optimize your pumps and reduce OPEX
Did you know that you could save hundreds of thousands every year by replacing your old and inefficient pumps? Download our short booklet to see the potential savings you could expect from energy-optimized solutions, based on real-life cases.
85% percent of a pump’s overall lifetime cost are related to its energy consumption. By energy-optimizing your pumps, you’ll save energy, improve reliability, and keep downtime at a minimum. Not only that, upgrading pumps has environmental benefits as well. Investing in green, energy-efficient solutions boosts your environmental profile and brings down carbon emissions.
Grundfos Digital Services
Connected pumps open up a world of opportunities for true data-based optimization taking pump performance to a new level.
The aim of our Digital Service offering is to provide you with the most precise data available for optimization, and to take a greater responsibility for your pump performance and thereby predict possible issues before they occur. This is made possible by features such as remote monitoring and control.
