Food and Beverage Market - Bottled Water
3M Purification – the choice is clear for bottled water producers.
Consumer demand for increased water quality compels bottlers to vigilantly maintain high operating standards. 3M Purification satisfies this demand with filtration systems that meet or exceed industry quality standards. 3M Purification systems are used to control particles from the spring or source water, to help protect processing equipment, and for microbiological control at the bottling line. Our flexible systems are designed for flow rates as low at 5 GPM to as high as 1000 GPM or even greater.
Advances by 3M Purification include the 3M™ High Flow Series Filter Cartridge, which replaces up to 24 conventional 2.5 inch depth filter cartridges with a single filter element. This "green" approach to filtration can help reduce filter waste and system downtime during filter change-out while increasing productivity.
The following sections outline some of 3M Purification's solutions for various process steps:

Sample-ready plates that replace conventional agar, Petri dishes, media pads, and disposable filter funnels used in the microbial testing of water.
The beverage industry strives to offer safe products to the public that have a long shelf life with decreased chemical preservatives. This balance is very difficult to manage due to pH and high sugar levels which make the beverages susceptible to yeast and mold. Monitoring microbial conditions throughout the production cycle is critical to the control of contamination. Testing in process equipment as well as final products is the most effective measure to control the quality of the final beverage.
Our extensive line of monitoring and testing solutions is designed to help you maximize accuracy, consistency and efficiency. All products are supported by worldwide sales and technical services second to none.
