Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) is a fundamental ingredient of all carbonated beverages, beer, soft drinks and mineral waters. Not only does it provide the typical effervescence that drives consumer preference, it also offers additional benefits like enhancement of flavour, boosted texture impression, visual communication of freshness and increased product stability.

Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) is also broadly employed in the brewery sector as a transport and processing medium.
