SKE EQUIPMENT Successfully Delivers Yangchun Brewery (Hainan) Craft Brewery Project
Recently, the Yangchun Brewery (Hainan) Craft Brewery Project undertaken by SKE EQUIPMENT has been successfully delivered. Located in Tunchang, Hainan, the plant features an annual capacity of 50,000 tons of craft beer, marking another milestone project for SKE in brewery engineering, built to withstand the region’s harsh tropical climate.
Project Background & Core Challenges
To expand its presence in South China, Yangchun Brewery launched a new craft brewery in Tunchang, Hainan, with the scope including the hot liquor tank system, fermentation system, and process piping system. The project presented three major challenges:
- Extreme Climate Conditions: High temperature, high humidity, and salt spray significantly increased equipment corrosion risks.
- Typhoon Disruptions: Severe weather events posed major obstacles to outdoor construction activities.
- Tight Timeline: The entire project needed to be completed within just 200 days.
- Efficient Execution: Highlights of the Project in Challenging Conditions
To address the unique challenges of the location, the SKE EQUIPMENT team implemented specialized construction and protection plans:
- Maximized Work Progress: Accelerated work during favorable weather conditions and utilized night shifts to maintain momentum, minimizing delays caused by typhoons and rainfall.
- Targeted Anti-Corrosion Protection:Applied specialized anti-corrosion treatments to all outdoor equipment, piping, and steel structures, including salt-resistant coatings and material upgrades, to effectively mitigate corrosion risks in the high-humidity, salt-laden environment.
- Refined Construction Management:Strictly adhered to tropical climate construction standards, optimizing outdoor lifting and installation processes while enforcing rigorous safety and quality controls.
Through these measures, the team successfully completed the installation and commissioning of all systems on schedule, despite the region’s challenging conditions.
Project Outcomes & Benchmark Value
The project was completed on schedule and passed all acceptance tests, earning positive feedback from the client on construction organization and quality. This delivery not only provides Yangchun Brewery with a 50,000-ton annual capacity craft beer base but also demonstrates SKE EQUIPMENT’s key strengths:
- Adaptability to Extreme Environments: The project validated SKE’s specialized anti-corrosion and construction solutions for tropical coastal regions, providing a proven model for brewery projects in similar climates.
- Specialized Anti-Corrosion Expertise: The comprehensive protection design for equipment and piping ensures long-term stable operation in harsh conditions, significantly reducing future maintenance costs for the client.
- High-Efficiency Delivery Capability: Delivering the project within 200 days, overcoming environmental and logistical challenges, showcases SKE’s strong end-to-end project management capabilities.
- Moving forward, SKE EQUIPMENT will continue to develop brewery engineering solutions tailored to complex conditions, providing professional and reliable turnkey construction services for clients worldwide, and helping more brands build modern, high-quality production benchmarks.
