Brewing Products »

Birko manufactures an innovative and improved line of specialty cleaning and processing aids for the brewery and beverage production. Our specialists understand the specific problems encountered in these operations and can offer valuable consultation to resolve them. Several of Birko's products are unique to the industry offering new ways to clean large facilities better at a fraction of the cost of outdated methods.

Soil and scale buildup in mash tuns, brew kettles, fermentation vessels, columns and saccharification tanks can lead to a reduced ability to transfer heat, equipment failure and costly downtime. Excessive bacterial contamination results in higher expenditures on antibiotics, and loss of finished product.

Birko's chemists have formulated products that chemically remove these soils and condition the metal surfaces to resist corrosion and redeposition. Our cleaning protocols can reduce the usage of expensive antibiotics to control bacteria and maximize your yield. Birko also provides backset treatments, anti-foaming agents and chemical dispensing equipment.

Call Birko with your toughest brewery cleaning or sanitation problem -- we'll take care of it.
