The Challenge:
For over 10 years, Global Pumps has proudly supported a vinegar manufacturer in QLD with their pumping needs. Recently, they approached us with a new challenge: upgrading their submerged vinegar fermentation system. The key requirement? A pump that could handle the delicate product while performing reliably under problematic aerated conditions, all while aligning with their sustainability and budget goals.
The Solution:
After some discussions with the team, we recommended the Packo NP66, which features a polished construction, a hygienic impeller, and an electric motor. This hygienic, food-grade pump is specifically designed for transferring delicate products like balsamic vinegar. The Packo pump offers superior efficiency, ensuring the producer’s final product remained consistent in quality while also providing long-term cost savings through energy efficiency and reduced maintenance.
