Molson Coors Completes the Upgrade of Aspall Cyder Site
At the Aspall Cyder production plant in Suffolk, Molson Coors has completed a £13 million modernisation project.
The drinks conglomerate, which was founded in 2018, has invested considerable resources into making the site more efficient and increasing production to meet demand for ‘super-premium’ hard cider in the UK (up 60% to about 70m pints of cider per year).
The site was upgraded with a new, contemporary fermentation facility that enabled the repurposing of Aspall’s “tank farm” for additional growth.
Aspall also improved its wastewater treatment facility, allowing on-site treatment.
A new weighbridge was built to allow transport trucks to be weighed on-site, reducing trips.
The weighbridge will reduce local traffic by the same amount as 800 tankers a year, allowing the site’s environmental impact to be reduced.
Despite the fact that the site was completely rebuilt, Molson Coors tried to maintain the original appearance and feel of the building.
