The art and science of beverage technology
The ISBT (formerly SSDT) was founded in Washington, D.C. in 1953. It is unique in being the only organization whose sole interest is the technical and scientific aspects of soft drinks and beverages. The affairs of the Society are managed by the Board of Directors.
Membership is open to any person engaged in the science, technology or production of soft drinks or beverages, including those suppliers to the beverage industry whose principal occupation is substantially technical in nature. This includes individuals employed by bottlers, franchise companies, packaging, flavor, ingredient and equipment suppliers who are engaged in scientific or technical positions.
