At ALTEX, we serve customers in a wide range of industries from security and refrigeration to automotive and industrial automation. Our customers come to us with an engineering or manufacturing challenge related to cable assemblies and wire harnesses – and today, that includes an OEM of craft beer brewing equipment.
When you think of beer, you probably think of the world’s biggest brands like Miller or Budweiser. While it’s still a small percentage of the total amount of beer produced annually, today there are nearly 2,000 American craft brewers producing nearly 10 million barrels of beer. This industry is growing so quickly that the world’s major brewers – including Anheuser-Busch InBev and SAB-Miller — have all entered this market. Add home brewers and you have an ever-growing number of people seeking to capitalize on the world’s love of this adult beverage.
In 2012, ALTEX became a contract manufacturing partner for an Indiana-based company seeking to leverage this industry boom with their brewing equipment. Our box build assemblies for this client control brewing temperature to help their customers consistently and safely brew up some tasty drafts.
