Biotechnology in the Food Industry
- From a Fermentation Technology Supplier Perspective
CLIB Forum 4th July 2013
Technology and Tradition
- Working for the Process Industry since 1878
History:
• In 1878 Heinrich Frings sr. founded a vinegar factory in Aachen.
• Acetic acid fermentation at the scientific-engineering level is initiated
by Heinrich Frings jr.
• At the beginning of the 20th century Frings developed into a
constructor of fermentation and other process systems.
• Frings processes have evolved through several generations of
technologies.
Frings today:
• Headquarters in Bonn, Germany
• International constructor of plants for food technology‚ environment
technology and biotechnology,
• 80 employees (worldwide)
• Largest project realized by Frings: 23 Mio. €
