Manufacture of malt

NACE v2.1 Code: C11.06

About manufacture of malt

NACE code 11.06 covers the manufacture of malt, a crucial ingredient in the production of beer, whisky, and other alcoholic beverages. As a key component of the broader food and beverage industry, the malt manufacturing sector plays a vital role in the global economy, providing essential raw materials for a wide range of consumer products.

Production process

The production of malt involves several key steps. First, grains such as barley, wheat, or rye are steeped in water to initiate the germination process. The grains are then dried and roasted to develop the desired flavor and color profiles. Finally, the malt is milled or crushed to produce the final product, which is then sold to breweries, distilleries, and other food manufacturers.

Production inputs

The primary inputs for the malt manufacturing industry include grains, water, and energy sources such as natural gas or electricity to power the drying and roasting processes. Specialized equipment, such as steeping tanks, kilns, and milling machinery, are also essential for the production of high-quality malt.

Production outputs

The primary output of the malt manufacturing industry is, of course, malt itself. This product is then consumed by a variety of other NACE codes, including 11.01 Distilling, rectifying and blending of spirits, 11.05 Manufacture of beer, and 10.89 Manufacture of other food products n.e.c., among others. The malt produced in this industry is a critical ingredient in the production of beer, whisky, and other alcoholic beverages, as well as certain food products.
