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.

Grundfos Optimisation Services in Food and Beverage
We can help you save water and 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 Optimisation 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 Advanced - An easy to understand assessment of your pumps
Booking an Energy Check Advanced is easy. The analysis is performed on-site by a Grundfos specialist or trained partner and requires no downtime and minimal administration.
Our Energy Check Advanced takes data from your SCADA system or from on-site measurements. The result is a customised Energy Report detailing the energy consumption and the CO2 emissions of your installed pumps highlighting suggestions for energy savings and process optimisation, to help reduce your carbon footprint and meet your sustainability targets.
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.
Optimise 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-optimised solutions, based on real-life cases.
85% percent of a pump’s overall lifetime cost are related to its energy consumption. By energy-optimising 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.
