Classic Carbonation
For unfiltered beverages such as juices, cold-brew coffee or some craft beer styles we recommend the Classic Carbonation method which is uses a traditional CO2 dosing system rather than a membrane cells used in the 500 Series range. Our high-quality automation ensures the most accurate dosing and dissolving of the CO2 gas as the desired concentration. Perfect for batch processing or integration with new or existing filling equipment.
This automated machine is suitable for producers who chose not to filter their product or who want an economical method of inline carbonation.

1000 Series - Wine Membrane Separation Systems
Membrane systems have revolutionised modern winemaking, offering precise and efficient solutions for refining wine composition and quality. These advanced technologies, including ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, and reverse osmosis, enable winemakers to selectively manage components such as alcohol, acidity, and phenolics while preserving the wine’s natural characteristics. By providing unparalleled control over the winemaking process, membrane systems help produce cleaner, more balanced wines that meet specific stylistic and market demands. Whether for clarification, stabilisation, or adjustment of key wine parameters, membrane systems are an essential tool in the production of high-quality wines.
Ultrafiltration
Ultrafiltration is a cutting-edge technique in winemaking that enhances the quality and stability of wines by selectively removing unwanted particles and microorganisms. This process helps in clarifying wines, reducing microbial loads, and improving shelf life without compromising flavour or aroma. The ultrafiltration process is highly effective in maintaining the wine's natural characteristics, making it an essential tool for producing cleaner, more refined wines. Whether for clarification, microbial stabilisation, or the removal of haze-forming components, ultrafiltration offers a precise and efficient solution tailored to modern winemaking needs.
Wine Clarification: Removes suspended particles and haze, resulting in clear, bright wines.
Microbial Stabilisation: Reduces microbial loads, enhancing wine stability and shelf life
Tannin and Protein Management: Controls tannin and protein levels to prevent haze formation.
Flavour Preservation: Retains natural flavours and aromas during filtration.
Colour Adjustment: Assists in achieving the desired wine colour by selective filtration.
Nanofiltration
Nanofiltration is an advanced technology used in winemaking to selectively separate and concentrate specific components of the wine. This process is particularly useful for adjusting wine composition, such as reducing alcohol content or concentrating desirable compounds like phenolics and aromas. Nanofiltration allows winemakers to fine-tune the balance of the wine, enhancing its overall quality while preserving its natural character. With precise control over molecular separation, nanofiltration is a powerful tool for creating wines that meet specific stylistic goals and market demands.
Alcohol Reduction: Selectively reduces alcohol content while maintaining flavour and aroma
Concentration of Phenolics and Aromas: Enhances the intensity of desirable wine components
Acid Adjustment: Balances acid levels to achieve desired wine profiles
Colour Enhancement: Concentrates pigments to deepen wine colour
Selective Removal of Undesirable Compounds: Eliminates specific unwanted molecules without affecting overall wine quality
Reverse Osmosis
Reverse osmosis is a highly effective technique in winemaking that allows for the precise manipulation of wine composition. By applying pressure to the wine through a semi-permeable membrane, reverse osmosis separates water, alcohol, and other small molecules from the wine, enabling winemakers to concentrate flavours, reduce alcohol content, and manage volatile acidity. This process is invaluable for correcting wine faults, enhancing specific attributes, and creating balanced, high-quality wines that meet precise stylistic goals. Reverse osmosis is a versatile and powerful tool for modern winemaking, offering unparalleled control over wine composition.
Alcohol Reduction: Lowers alcohol content without compromising flavour and aroma
Volatile Acidity Reduction: Corrects high levels of volatile acidity to improve wine stability and quality
Concentration of Flavours: Enhances the intensity of flavours and aromas by removing excess water
Wine Fault Correction: Removes specific undesirable compounds to rectify wine faults
Water Addition Management: Adjusts water levels to balance wine concentration and volume
