The Distillery Division represents the original nucleus of the Caviro business and was the platform for the large-scale growth that has lead to Caviro becoming a central hub for the manufacture of products that are used in broader industry as well as in the wine sector.

The division is committed to enhancing the value of by-products from the Italian agro-industrial production chain by using modern and innovative technical and manufacturing processes whilst also remaining focused on the protection of the environment at every stage of the process.

Caviro is a leader is the distillery sector – we have a 20 per cent market share in the production of alcohol from wine and by-products, are world co-leaders in the production of natural tartaric acid (with a market share of 17%) and have a 21 per cent market share of Italian grape must production and a 10 per in alcohol production from molasses. We are proud to have long-term partnerships supplying leading corporations from across the beverage, food and pharmaceutical sectors.

We are constantly evaluating our processes to ensure the most efficient use of our resources, and remain firmly committed to continuing to invest in sustainable development and the development of environmentally friendly processes.

The Distillery Division has two locations - Faenza, where the distillation of by-products from the winemaking process, the production of concentrated, rectified grape musts, grape juice, calcium tartrate, high quality compost is based, and Treviso, where tartaric acid is produced.
