Microbiological Control in Bottled Water Facilities

Filters that help reduce HPC and other microorganisms in bottled water before filling.

Increasingly, bottle water producers are installing additional operations at the final bottling stage to help control microorganisms that are naturally present in the water.

Microporous membrane filters, along with a rigorous plant hygiene plan, can either be used alone or supplemented with additional methods of microorganism control such as UV or ozonation, as part of a “multi-barrier approach” to water quality.

3M Purification developed the LifeASSURETM BDA and BNA series filter filters with bottle water producers in mind. These filters offer superior microorganisms control as well as high durability in common cleaning and sanitation protocols.
