Enhancing an existing distillery or creating a new facility from scratch is a detailed and complex process. It requires a combination of engineering expertise, innovation and the correct combination of systems to create a unique solution for each client.
Allen Associates understands this. The company does not believe in an off-the-shelf approach, but rather works closely with the client to develop a bespoke offer that will meet the distillery’s exact process plant requirements in the most cost efficient way, whether it’s a small CIP system or full distillery project.
Every product is unique and that requires a unique process and team to create it. Over the past three decades Allen Associates’ team of professional chemical engineers has worked with a select group of preferred suppliers to deliver over 100 bespoke industry compliant projects for distillers across the UK and overseas.
