Leiber GmbH opens its new spraying tower and makes brewers’ yeast history

In recent months, Leiber has invested several million Euros in the production facility in Lower Saxony. The project “Construction of a second spraying tower” has now been completed. One of the most modern plants for the production of specialist yeast products for the food industry is now operational, and more recently with its new spraying tower also for animal nutrition. The concise entire building of the drying plant is a total of 30 metres high, spread over five floors, is 30 metres long, and 16 metres wide. Around 1,000 tonnes of concrete and steel were used in the construction for the new expansion phase over an eight-month period. In addition, the adjacent high rack warehouse has more than doubled to a capacity of 4,000 pallet spaces.

In line with the German purity law and with the high quality production requirements, the new plant produces yeast products of the highest purity which are delivered worldwide. With a capacity in excess of 2,000 tons of brewers’ yeast cell wall products per year, the output is designed for the field of animal nutrition. With this investment, Leiber GmbH is strengthening its production site in Germany on the one hand, while on the other hand, the competitive nature of innovative brewers’ yeast production for international markets is ensured.

This year, Leiber is not only looking back on the eight-month construction phase of the spraying tower, but also on the first steps taken by brewers’ yeast specialist Franz Leiber in 1954. It was he who back then founded "Bierhefeverarbeitungsgesellschaft Franz Leiber & Co”. This therefore paved the way for yeast extracts and products with extraordinary effects, which have now been traded on a global scale for 60 years.

For 60 years, Leiber GmbH, located in Bramsche in Lower Saxony, has been one of the leading manufacturers of specialist yeast products “made in Germany”. The natural raw material brewers’ yeast is processed using an innovative biotechnological method to form high-quality products which are used in the areas of animal nutrition, food, food supplements and biotechnology. With two locations in Lower Saxony, as well as further production sites in Poland and Russia, Leiber manufactures brewers’ yeast products and yeast extracts of the highest quality with over 170 committed members of staff.
