Brewery Equipment Global Market Report 2024

The global brewery equipment market has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $19.23 billion in 2023 to $20.68 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to the boom in craft breweries, a rise in beer consumption, adherence to stringent quality standards, globalization of brewery businesses, and an increasing focus on environmental sustainability.

The global brewery equipment market is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $27.26 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the rise of beer tourism, increasing demand in emerging markets, a focus on customization and flexibility, health and wellness trends, and a push for supply chain resilience. Major trends in the forecast period include technological advancements, sustainability concerns, emphasis on customization and flexibility, a focus on quality and consistency, and collaborations for product innovation.

The brewery equipment market is anticipated to experience growth driven by the increasing consumption of beer and other alcoholic beverages. Brewery equipment plays a crucial role in various brewing processes such as milling, fermentation, storing, packaging, and refrigeration. Notably, craft brewers in the United States experienced an 8% increase in sales, contributing to a 13.1% volume share of the beer market in 2021, according to the Brewers Association. Similarly, the Australian Bureau of Statistics reported that in 2020-21, 25.8% of Australians aged 18 and older consumed more alcohol than the Australian Adult Alcohol Guideline. This rise in alcohol consumption is a key factor propelling the growth of the brewery equipment market.

The brewery equipment market is expected to benefit from the increase in urbanization. Urbanization involves the growth and expansion of cities, often accompanied by population migration from rural to urban areas. This urbanization trend has led to a higher demand for efficient and flexible brewery equipment to meet the rising consumer demand for beer and other alcoholic beverages. With more than half the world's population living in urban settings, as reported by the World Economic Forum, the brewery equipment market is poised to grow as urbanization continues.

Technological advancement is a key driver in the brewery equipment market, with major companies focusing on research and development for product innovations. Siemens AG, for example, introduced the BRAUMAT V8 process control system, offering efficient and flexible mixing process automation in the brewing and beverage industries. This system incorporates features such as continuous checks on recipes and quantities, reducing overdoses of ingredients and enhancing security during production sequences. The adoption of such advanced technologies is expected to contribute to the growth and competitiveness of the brewery equipment market.

Major companies in the brewery equipment market are increasingly focusing on introducing dry-hopping systems to gain a competitive edge. Dry hopping involves adding hops to beer after initial boiling and fermentation to enhance aroma and flavor without contributing significant bitterness. Brewtique and Hop Products Australia launched Hoptimiser, a dry hopping system designed to optimize flavor while reducing undesirable characteristics in beer. This innovation has shown promising results in increasing aroma terpenoids at a faster rate and reducing residency time due to improved flocculation. The incorporation of such systems is likely to drive growth in the brewery equipment market.

In January 2021, Alfa Laval AB, a Sweden-based company specializing in heat transfer, separation, and fluid handling equipment, acquired Sandymount Technologies. This strategic acquisition aimed to strengthen Alfa Laval's product portfolio in brewery equipment, positioning the company for increased competitiveness in the market. Sandymount Technologies, a US-based process technology company, brought valuable expertise to Alfa Laval in the brewing equipment sector.
