LEADING EDGE SOLUTIONS FOR BEVERAGE MANUFACTURERS

INNOVATION AND EXPERIENCE ON TAP

Competition is fierce and margins are thin in the beverage industry. Innovation is key for success. Once a new product is approved for production, it must get to market – fast. That means fast-tracking required capital projects at your facilities.

It is innovation that helps drive success in the beverage industry. To The Austin Company, this means reliability, flexibility and food safety are engineered and built into every beverage manufacturing plant. Our experience includes process piping, equipment, controls, refrigeration, packaging, and wastewater treatment.

THE AUSTIN METHOD^®

The Austin Method is the proprietary design-build method developed in 1901 to provide clients a single-source for the design, engineering, and construction of a project. Austin can provide services from start to finish—or any step in between—to meet the client’s objectives for a project on time and within budget.

Austin offers multiple approaches in implementing a project. These generally can be classified into either a design-bid-construct or design-build project approach. In addition, Austin offers The Austin Method, which applies stringent project controls and combines the advantages of “design-bid construct” and “design-build” approaches into a competitive bid, cost-effective, and accelerated-schedule project implementation.
