From ingredient and process water to boilers and cooling towers, CRB Water helps food and beverage plants maintain uptime, quality, and compliance. Our programs optimize system performance and efficiency across utility and process systems—while supporting biological and wastewater treatment to reduce overall risk.

  • Avoid violations and shutdowns

  • Stabilize waste treatment systems and ponds

  • Reduce water and energy waste

Food and beverage facilities face constant pressure to meet discharge limits, maintain biological waste treatment health, and control utility costs often with aging systems and variable influent.

CRB Water helps solve these challenges with data-driven programs that combine engineering, chemistry, and biological waste treatment expertise.

Compliance Risk
Missed discharge limits, high-strength waste, or pathogen events can trigger fines, permit violations, and production interruptions. CRB Water helps stabilize biological waste & wastewater treatment systems and safeguard compliance through proactive monitoring and nutrient balance.
Production Downtime
Scale, corrosion, or biological upsets in boilers, cooling systems, or wastewater treatment can bring production to a halt. Our integrated water and wastewater programs protect both processes to prevent unplanned shutdowns.
Resource Strain

Aging infrastructure and rising costs demand smarter programs that reduce chemical, water, and energy use. CRB Water combines automation, analytics, and sustainable chemistries to help food and beverage plants achieve performance and sustainability goals together.
