Water treatment in the food and beverage industry
UV disinfection for the highest water quality
Without water, all manufacturing and processing operations in the food and beverage sector would be unthinkable. The water used must be free from micro-organisms and reliably available in sufficient quantities at every stage of production. Our UV-light based water treatment in the food and beverage industry fulfils the highest demands in terms of quality, hygiene and efficiency, without the use of additional substances.
How UV disinfection works in the food and beverage sector
The water used must fulfil high hygiene and quality standards – in part due to national and European laws, specifications and guidelines, and often due to even stricter internal company specifications. To guarantee this and, for example, prevent changes in taste, odour or colour caused by microorganisms or additives, gentle and effective pre-treatment is required. UV disinfection has established itself as the preferred method for water treatment in the food and beverage industry. By using UV light, the taste, smell and colour of the water or other liquids remain unchanged. This guarantees the highest water quality and full product purity with minimal contact time, particularly important for water for beverages.
