Reliable filtration from Hengst Filtration for safe food & beverages

Münster. In the food & beverage industry, every detail counts for the production of safe and tasty products. Hengst Filtration supports safe production processes and products with its process and sterile filters for liquids, compressed air, gas and steam. The Münster-based company has been a leading manufacturer of high-quality filtration solutions for more than 60 years. With its reliable Filter Elements and filtration experience, Hengst Filtration offers important ingredients for the production of safe and tasty beers.


Hengst Filtration: Process and sterile filtration for safe foodstuffs

The production of food and beverages, such as beer, water or dairy products, requires maximum purity at every stage of the process - be it for water, steam, the use of compressed air or gases. Filtration plays a central role in this: it contributes to hygienic production conditions, stable processes and safe products.

For over 60 years, Hengst Filtration has stood for high-quality filtration solutions in demanding industries - with comprehensive application knowledge, technical precision and a clear focus on product safety. This is a decisive benefit for the food and beverage industry. Because strict requirements apply here - both technical and regulatory.

For food and beverage production, the wide range of process filters includes over 400 products in the categories of liquid, gas, compressed air and steam filters. The liquid filters include absolute depth filters with meltblown media and sterile membrane filters - in filtration grades from 25 micrometers to 0.1 micrometers. The compressed air, gas and steam filters are also available in various filtration grades. The portfolio covers all stages of process filtration - from pre-filtration to sterile filtration. The elements meet the requirements of the FDA and EC1935/2004 for safe use in food and beverage production.

"We supply a comprehensive portfolio of Filter Elements and housings along the food and beverage production process. Our portfolio is easy to understand and makes decision-making easier," says Dominik Kleine Kuhlmann, Head of Sales and Marketing Steriel Process Filtration at Hengst, describing the portfolio.

Filtration from a single source

Everything from a single source: In addition to process filters, Hengst offers other filtration solutions for manufacturing companies - for example to improve air quality in production environments. These include ventilation and dust extraction filters as well as individually designed dust extraction systems for safe working environments. Hengst also supports the optimization of filtration processes that are ideally designed to meet the individual requirements of the applications.

With "Purifying Our Planet", Hengst is pursuing a clear goal: to contribute to more sustainable production and a cleaner environment through high-quality filtration solutions. With the help of carefully selected materials in the products and the long service life of the filter solutions, Hengst makes a significant contribution to this goal.
