NEW
POPOU
The brand new bottling department at our brewery in Popoli (Italy) with ceiling panels to deaden the sound.
Our brewery in Popoli (Italy)
was bought from Moretti.
Some years ago work started
on its expansion. The production
capacity had to be almost doubled. But
production was not allowed to be
stopped at all while rebuilding was
going on.
The brewhouse was enlarged. Apollos
were installed. The Services Building
underwent a complete change. A new
bottling department was built and a
brand new bottling line which will
shortly be able to fill 35,000 bottles an
hour. In that bottling department there
is very little noise thanks to the
soundproofing measures, such as
hundreds of panels suspended from the
ceiling. It is one of the most modern
departments within our group. Thanks
to the employees of Dreher and
Heineken Technical Services.
Lots more was also done. But during
all the demolition and building work it
was 'production as usual'. Not one litre
less beer was brewed, thanks to the
good consultation between brewers
and builders. And yet almost all the
new installations have been housed
inside existing buildings. A job
planned to perfection.
The Services Building was also completely refurbished.
