We are pleased to announce our contribution to Bavaria’s new brewery project in Palmar de Varela, a visionary initiative that will transform Colombia’s brewing industry and drive regional economic growth. This state-of-the-art facility is set to bring innovation, efficiency, and sustainability to the market while producing Colombia’s most beloved beer brands.
In this project, we supplied 534 tons of HRP ASTM A572 GR.50 steel. Renowned for its exceptional strength, durability, and weldability, this steel grade plays a vital role in meeting the demanding requirements of industrial construction, ensuring the long-term stability and safety of the brewery’s structure.
Bavaria’s significant investment of approximately $413 million reflects its commitment to fostering local development and innovation. With operations beginning around mid-2024, the new brewery is expected to create over 1,500 jobs during the construction phase and provide substantial long-term employment—350 direct positions and an estimated 7,000 indirect roles—further boosting the region’s economy. Strategically located just one hour from Barranquilla, the facility will produce iconic beer brands such as Águila, Poker, and Club Colombia, reinforcing Bavaria’s longstanding reputation for quality and innovation.
High Strength: Offers a minimum yield strength of 345 MPa and tensile strength of 450–620 MPa, making it ideal for applications requiring superior structural integrity and load-bearing capacity.
Superior Weldability: With low carbon content and fine grain structure, it allows for efficient fabrication and reliable integration into complex structural systems, minimizing the risk of cracking or material distortion.
Exceptional Durability: Designed to perform under high stress and harsh conditions, it maintains structural performance over time—resisting deformation, fatigue, and environmental degradation.
Versatile Applications: Suitable for use in bridges, buildings, construction equipment, transportation infrastructure, and other structural components. Its balanced mechanical properties ensure reliable support across a wide range of demanding industrial and civil engineering applications.
As Bavaria embarks on this transformative journey, we continue supporting industrial initiatives with products that meet the highest standards of performance and reliability.
