The growth in the historic period can be attributed to craft brewery boom, increasing beer consumption, stringent quality standards, globalization of brewery businesses, environmental sustainability.

The brewery equipment market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $29.18 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing beer tourism, increasing demand in emerging markets, customization and flexibility, health and wellness trends, supply chain resilience. Major trends in the forecast period include technological advancements, sustainability concerns, customization and flexibility, quality and consistency, collaborations for product innovation.

The growing consumption of beer and other alcoholic beverages is anticipated to drive the growth of the brewery equipment market. This equipment is integral to the brewing processes for beer and other alcoholic drinks, encompassing key operations such as milling, fermentation, storage, packaging, and refrigeration, all of which are vital for production. For example, in February 2024, Rehabs UK, a prominent connector to addiction treatment services in the UK, reported that between 2021 and 2022, there were 342,795 hospital admissions directly linked to alcohol, translating to a rate of 626 per 100,000 individuals. Therefore, the rising consumption of beer is expected to significantly impact the brewery equipment market.

The increase in urbanization is projected to significantly propel the growth of the brewery equipment market. Urbanization is characterized by the rapid growth and expansion of cities, often driven by population migration from rural to urban areas. This trend has resulted in a heightened demand for high-quality, efficient, and flexible brewery equipment to cater to the growing consumer appetite for beer and other alcoholic beverages. For example, in April 2022, the World Economic Forum reported that over 4.3 billion people, or 55% of the global population, resided in urban areas, with projections indicating that this figure could rise to 80% by 2050. Consequently, the increasing pace of urbanization is a key driver for the brewery equipment market.

Technological advancement is a key driver in the brewery equipment market, with major companies focusing on research and development for product innovations. For instance, in February 2022, Siemens AG 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. For instance, in August 2023, 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 February 2022, Bucher Unipektin, a Switzerland-based beverage technology partner and supplier, acquired Denwel for $7 million. This acquisition aims to enhance Bucher Unipektin's capabilities in beer processing technology by integrating Denwel's specialized cold block equipment into its product offerings. Denwel, based in the Czech Republic, is a manufacturer and exporter of high-quality industrial pumps and valves, including brewery equipment. This strategic move allows Bucher Unipektin to expand its portfolio and improve its service offerings within the brewing sector, thereby strengthening its position in the market.

Brewery equipment comprises the tools, vessels, and equipment utilized in the brewing process for beer production. This encompasses systems for milling, fermentation, storage, packaging, and refrigeration.

The key brewery equipment includes fermentation units, brewhouse units, filtration systems, maturation units, and various other products. Fermentation units are vessels or equipment designed for conducting the fermentation process in brewing, providing a controlled environment that allows microorganisms to metabolize and reproduce while preventing contamination. Brewery equipment is typically constructed from materials such as brass, copper, and aluminum, and can be automatic, manual, or semi-automatic. These are employed in microbreweries, brewpubs, farm breweries, regional breweries, and other applications for both commercial and industrial purposes.
