Beer & Wine Polycarbonate / Cellulose Filter Pads — High Clarity Filtration

Structure & Material Composition

• A composite of polycarbonate support structure plus cellulose filter media for optimal balance of strength and filtration performance.

• The rigid support keeps pads stable under pressure, while the cellulose layer handles fine particle retention.

Filtration Performance

• Targets haze-causing particles, yeast, colloids, and sediments common in beer and wine.

• Maintains clarity without stripping desirable flavors or volatile compounds.

• Compatible with multi-stage filtration setups (pre-filtration → fine pads → polishing).

Mechanical & Operational Benefits

• Good mechanical strength and resistance to compression under pressure.

• Designed for standard pad/filter housing systems used in breweries and wineries.

• Low pressure drop while maintaining sufficient flow rates.

• Reliable sealing and minimal bypass when properly installed.

Purity & Beverage Compatibility

• Food/beverage safe materials to avoid leaching or contamination.

• Minimal residual cellulose fines or extractables to protect final product quality.

• Appropriate for sanitary or cleanroom filtration environments used in beverage processing.

Usage & Handling Tips

• Install pad with correct orientation (e.g., flow direction) to avoid bypass or damage.

• Pre-rinsing may be recommended, e.g. with water or low-turbidity brew/wine solution.

• Replace pads ahead of clogging – monitor pressure drop across filter.

• Handle with care to avoid bending, damage, or contamination.

• Store pads in a dry, clean, dust-free environment prior to use.

Typical Applications

• Beer breweries: final clarification, haze removal, yeast removal

• Wineries: polishing stage before bottling

• Other beverage operations: cider, mead, soft drinks, clarified fruit juices

• Any system needing both structural support and fine filtration in beverage lines
