Lallemand Brewing, a business unit of Lallemand Inc., is focused on bringing unmatched products, services and technical support to the brewing industry worldwide. Lallemand’s presence in the brewing industry dates from the early 1970s when the company started producing dried pure culture brewing yeasts for beer kit manufacturers in Canada. In subsequent years, this activity was expanded to the production of other specific ale and lager beer yeast strains for different clients in the United States, Europe and Australia and Asia. Backed by this history of collaboration, Lallemand’s extensive and unique knowledge in the propagation of different yeast strains led us to be consulted on yeast nutrition by a number of international breweries. Lallemand Brewing offers the AB Vickers line of products. Both traditional and innovative, the AB Vickers line varies from beer and wort clarification products to a comprehensive range of non-GMO enzymes. From small local breweries up to the largest beer production companies, many organisations around the world rely on the AB Vickers line thanks to the constant technical innovation and expertise that backs its offering. All of these brewing companies benefit by tapping into the significant expertise and resources offered by a team of brewmasters and by the company’s R&D capabilities. Supported by decades of long-standing industry experience, an extensive support network, and strong technical expertise, Lallemand Brewing is perfectly positioned today to help breweries achieve their most ambitious growth and quality goals. Beyond an unparalleled global technical support and expertise, Lallemand offers an extensive range of products, services, and education, grouped under a different set of brands. As a result of Lallemand’s close collaborations with brewers worldwide, we developed - and continue to perfect - a specialised range of yeast and yeast nutrients that target brewing industry’s specific challenges. Lallemand’s premium brewing yeasts offer brewers unmatched consistency, reliability and purity from one batch of beer to the next one, allowing them to take full control of the brewing process, exercise their full creativity and obtain the exact aromatic and flavour qualities they want.

The centrepiece of the range is a unique chlorine-free product, SMARTADD-9, that can be added to sodium hydroxide (NaOH) based cleaners to verify hygiene efficacy in tanks, pipes, heat exchangers and filling lines. "There is no other product on the market that does this," said Avani's Amanda Thomson. "Until now brewers either had to assume equipment was clean until something bad happened to tell them otherwise, ATP test rinse water or send samples away for testing. Either approach is fraught with delays, risks and inaccuracies. Our verification product range gives accurate hygiene feedback so brewers can be confident clean means clean." The concept of ‘verification-in-place’ is not entirely new. Avani Solutions has been applying a similar technology in beer dispense hygiene, with Desana VERIFY chlorine-based beer line cleaner, since they started out. Positive feedback from an increasing client base convinced them something like it would also be useful for breweries. As well as the new hygiene verification products, Avani Solutions' craft brewery cleaning range includes acid and alkaline cleaners and lubricants for conveyors. Amanda adds: "We all know that brewing is something you do when you're not cleaning, so we’ve set out to make sure brewers can maximise their time making beer because they know their cleaning processes have been efficient and effective."
