Process-Water Filtration in Food & Beverage
Food and beverage production needs hygienic, high-throughput filtration of process and ingredient water in food-contact-compliant materials. High-flow elements protect product quality and downstream steps — UV, membranes and filling lines — while keeping high flows running with fewer change-outs.
The challenge in this industry
Hygienic & food-contact compliance
Media and housings must meet FDA / EC 1935/2004 requirements for water in food and beverage production.
Protecting product & downstream steps
Particulate carry-over affects product quality and fouls UV units, membranes and filling equipment.
High throughput & CIP compatibility
Lines run high flows and require housings and elements that tolerate cleaning cycles.
Where it applies in food & beverage
- Incoming process-water prefiltration
- Ingredient-water polishing
- Protection ahead of UV disinfection and membranes
- Bottling and filling-line water filtration
- Prefiltration protecting final product filters
What high-flow filtration does here
High-flow elements remove particulate and suspended solids from process and ingredient water. Dissolved minerals are not removed here — the focus is solids removal, hygiene and downstream protection.
Housing & elements from one source
We supply FDA / EC 1935/2004-compliant high-flow elements and a matching 316L hygienic housing from one source, sized to your line flow and CIP regime.

Frequently asked questions
Are the materials food-contact compliant?
Yes. We supply elements in FDA / EC 1935/2004-compliant media together with a 316L hygienic housing suited to food and beverage process water.
Can the housing handle CIP cycles?
Yes. The housing and elements are selected for the temperatures and chemistry of your clean-in-place regime so they tolerate routine cleaning.
