Oddly disturbing animation of Grupo Modelo’s brewery catastrophe in Mexico

July 5, 2013Keith Gribbins

We run this because it should be a stark reminder to craft breweries about the importance of safety. It also has some good info on the early signs of carbon dioxide poisoning. If you missed it, Grupo Modelo S.A.B. de C.V. had seven workers that died while cleaning out tanks at the company’s large brewing facility in Mexico City in April. Most disturbing is the way the workers are dressed in this video (no safety gear), and we have to assume the animation is fairly accurate — it’s Next Media Animation, whose partner is Reuters, the world’s largest international multimedia news agency.

    Carbon DIoxide. If your brewery is using carbon monoxide in its cleaning processes, it’s doing something wrong.
