Smarter beer filtration for safer, cleaner brewing
Atlas Copco’s process filtration portfolio helps breweries deliver high-quality, stable beer while improving efficiency and lowering contamination risks.
Beer is one of the most popular drinks worldwide. Today, brewers are expected to maintain consistent quality across every batch while also meeting safety, clarity, and flavor expectations. With growing demand, tighter regulations, and sustainability targets, having the right filtration setup matters more than ever.
Filtration plays a crucial role in modern brewing. More than just a technical step, it’s essential to protecting the integrity of the beer. By removing unwanted particles, microorganisms, and haze-forming compounds, filtration helps preserve clarity, stability, and taste, without compromising the beer’s character. It supports consistent product quality, helps brewers meet regulatory standards, and gives them the confidence that every batch will live up to expectations.
Atlas Copco offers a complete range of filtration solutions made for the brewing process. From sterile air to final product protection, each system helps create a clean, stable environment so brewers can meet their quality targets and keep their beer consistent.
Filtration in every step of brewing:
Filtration is essential to preserve the taste, clarity, and shelf life of beer. Atlas Copco’s portfolio addresses every critical step in the brewing process:
Sterile air filtration – Keeps air clean during wort aeration, when the beer is especially vulnerable
Steam filtration – Supports cleaning and sterilizing to reduce the risk of spoilage
Trap filtration – Clears leftover particles after the main filtration stage
Cold stabilization filtration – Stops haze from forming during cold storage, keeping beer visually clear
Each solution meets hygiene standards and helps protect equipment while reducing product loss.
More efficient. Less waste:
Modern breweries are not just focused on product quality, they’re also under pressure to reduce waste, save energy, and use fewer resources. Filtration plays a major role in achieving these goals.
Atlas Copco’s filters are built to last longer and work at high flow rates. That means fewer changeouts, less energy use, and reduced downtime. All of this helps cut costs and shrink environmental impact.
From clean-in-place systems to product clarity, better filtration can boost how your whole process runs.
