Grundfos Britvic Case Story Hydro MPC-E pressure booster with CR pumps Insights from a strong supplier-customer relationship: A pump system upgrade helps UK soft drinks manufacturer Britvic increase production and achieve energy savings of GBP 374,420 The time sensitive, overnight installation and commissioning of an advanced custom turnkey solution with four booster sets resulted in an increase in production for Britvic, supporting the company’s growth plans. The system upgrade also achieved a reduction in wastewater and energy usage, with the reduced carbon footprint supporting the company’s sustainability agenda. Britvic is an international soft drinks business rich in history and heritage. Founded in England in the 1930s, it has grown into a global organisation with 37 much-loved brands sold in over 100 countries. The company combines its own leading brand portfolio including Fruit Shoot, Robinsons, Tango, J2O, London Essence, Teisseire and MiWadi with PepsiCo brands such as Pepsi, 7UP and Lipton Ice Tea which Britvic produces and sells in Great Britain and Ireland under exclusive PepsiCo agreements. Faced with an increase in demand for soft drinks and high energy consumption for moving the water required for their soft drink production, Britvic turned to Grundfos to look at options to increase production and reduce energy consumption across their plant in Rugby, United Kingdom. Britvic was looking to support its sustainability agenda focusing on its ‘Healthier People, Healthier Planet’ strategy, where the company is committed to creating a better tomorrow and delivering timely responses to the health and environmental challenges currently faced on a global level. Britvic has fully integrated the UN Sustainable Development Goals into this strategy and aligned objectives and targets with these goals. It was important to Britvic to select a supplier that not only supports this ambition but also lives and breathes these goals. Grundfos, with its own ambition of contributing to UN’s Sustainable Development Goals SDG #6 Clean Water and Sanitation, and SDG #13 Climate Action, was the perfect match.
