Quality water means life for people and industries  

Almost everything made for people to consume involves water. Whether it is the main ingredient or is used only for washing ingredients and cleaning equipment, water needs to be clean and sustainably managed. Some uses are common to all food and beverage manufacturers, while others relate to filtering water and controlling dissolved gases for particular uses and products. Whatever you make and regardless of your output volume, Solventum filtration solutions help keep you meeting your customer’s needs. 

Beer

Water filtration is vital for unique craft beers and popular brews alike. Even “unfiltered” beer begins with filtered water. It is an art form that requires patience and attention to details. Your brewery can focus on quality and taste when you choose reliable, cost-effective separation and purification solutions from Solventum.

Wine

Vintage to vintage, fashioning elegant wines requires reliable filtration and gas control solutions that are equally elegant in their own right. From filtering the wine itself to ensure texture and taste, to purifying and managing the water used for cleansing bottles and equipment, Solventum has the solutions you need.

Bottled water

When you begin and end with water itself, your process choices are critical—purification and filtration are at the very heart of what you offer your customers. From your source water to your cleaning water, begin and end with solutions from Solventum.

Spirits

Today’s master distillers have turned a medieval discovery into a modern art form.

Our solutions offer premium haze and particle control, scalable to the size of your distillery.

Soft drinks

Making soft drinks is hard! You need to start with pure water, and then control dissolved gases and intricately balance sweeteners, flavors and appearance—the possibilities are as endless as the ever-changing tastes of the consumer. Solventum offers purification and filtration solutions from your source line through to your bottling line. 

Other beverages and foods

Fruit juice, soups, canned goods, edible oils —even “dry” foods like baked goods and pasta —require liquid filtration, purification and sometimes dissolved gas control. Even if water is not a key part of the product’s preparation, it is still used for cleaning equipment and ensuring regulatory compliance. Let Solventum show you solutions that preserve the quality and flavors your customers expect.
