Case Studies

The historic John Labatt’s Brewery, established in the 1800s, underwent a comprehensive restoration project to meet contemporary food processing regulations and standards. Abbott's team was tasked with managing risks and assessing life cycle costs for the refurbishment, which included the installation of new pressure tanks, reworking assembly lines, and rehabilitating the factory's structure.

This intricate project not only required restoring historical elements but also addressed various challenges associated with the brewery's age, such as spalling concrete, cracked floors, and structural disintegration.

Through meticulous planning and execution, Labatt’s Brewery has been successfully restored to its former glory, meeting all safety and regulatory requirements for food and beverage processing. Today, it stands as a testament to its rich history while serving as a fully functional facility for years to come.
