Carlsberg opens water recycling plant and becomes the world’s most water efficient brewery

With the new water recycling plant, the Fredericia brewery will save more than 500 million liters of water a year. 90 percent of process water from the production of beer and soft drinks will be recycled in the production facility. Water consumption will be halved from the current 2.9 hl of water per hl of beer to 1.4 hl of water per hl of beer.
