Future Proof Your Winery Operations
Future Proof Your Winery Operations with Nitrogen Generators & Oil-Free Compressors
Sustainability has become a key focus for many large-scale wineries. With increasing pressure to minimise environmental impact and meet consumer expectations, many are taking active steps to improve the efficiency and sustainability of their operations.
Wineries already investing in solar panels are well-positioned to further reduce emissions by adopting on-site nitrogen generation. This transition not only supports ISO 14001 environmental standards but also strengthens long-term cost control and operational reliability.
The Real Cost of Nitrogen Cylinders
Nitrogen is essential throughout the winemaking process—from flushing tanks and pipelines, to sparging, blanketing, and bottling. It helps prevent oxidation, stabilise aromas, and extend shelf life by reducing oxygen exposure. However, the traditional method of sourcing nitrogen via cylinders or liquid deliveries brings long-term costs and inefficiencies.
Recurring expenses such as delivery fees, cylinder rental, transport-related gas loss, and administrative overheads all add up—especially for high-volume production sites. These hidden costs can place a strain on budgets and create unnecessary operational risks.
Why Switch to On-Site Nitrogen Generation?
Installing a nitrogen generator in your winery provides consistent, cost-effective nitrogen supply without the drawbacks of bottled gas. Here’s how your operations can benefit:
Lower Operating Costs
On-site nitrogen generation removes the need for ongoing cylinder deliveries, rental charges, and associated fees. Many wineries recover their investment in a short period thanks to the savings alone.
Reliable, On-Demand Supply
Avoid production delays caused by supply shortages or price increases. A nitrogen generator ensures your operations have continuous access to nitrogen, whenever it's needed.
Customised Purity and Output
On-site systems allow you to control nitrogen purity and flow rate, helping to optimise usage across all winemaking stages while maintaining product consistency.
Improved Workplace Safety
On-site generation eliminates the need for high-pressure cylinders, reducing manual handling and workplace hazards.
Efficient Use of Space
Replacing cylinder storage with compact generation equipment frees up space for production, storage, or expansion.
Oil-Free Compressors: Supporting Clean, Efficient Production
A nitrogen generator is only as good as the air compressor behind it. For wineries, oil-free air compressors are the preferred choice due to their ability to deliver clean, contaminant-free air.
Kaeser’s range of German-engineered oil-free rotary screw compressors are ideal for sensitive applications. Certified to ISO 22000 food safety standards and developed for continuous operation, these units offer:
- Low maintenance and energy-efficient operation
- Water- and air-cooled options for different site conditions
- Integrated air dryer configurations
- Quiet and reliable performance
