Bath Ales, a regional brewer based between Bristol & Bath and right on the doorstep of Fulton, has had a long relationship with the heat transfer specialist having used its vertical steam boilers since it opened its first brewery in 1995.

Best known for its flagship Gem beer, Bath Ales has used Fulton’s 60J vertical steam boilers as its main energy source since brewing began in 1995; and steam has always been used for each stage of the brewing process.

Commenting on the relationship between the two companies, Bath Ales managing director Roger Jones says: “In the brewery’s 18 years, we have expanded and grown and Fulton has remained the preferred choice thanks to its reliability, quality and service.”

As 2014 progresses, and with a need to increase capacity to cope with demand, Bath Ales is embarking on its fourth brewery move and expansion. “With increased demand comes a requirement to upgrade existing services and, naturally, we’re upgrading our 60J Fulton boiler to one of its much larger RB horizontal boilers.” says Roger.

With outputs ranging from 957 to 4787 kg/h and a maximum working pressure of 10.34 bar, Fulton’s RB steam boiler has been designed to provide superior performance, long life and low maintenance.
