Wine- and cider filtration – purity and taste at the highest level

Wine filtration is a crucial step in the production of red wine, white wine and cider, ensuring clarity and microbiological safety without compromising flavor. The goal is to refine the wine by removing turbidity and biological components such as yeasts and bacteria, while preserving the desired taste profile.

Why choose filtration over betonine? 

Bentonite, a clay-based fining agent, is commonly used for clarification but can negatively affect the wine's taste if dosed incorrectly. Membrane filtration offers a sustainable and precise alternative: it is not a consumable, highly durable, and can either complement or replace bentonite, depending on your process requirements. BOLLFILTER finds the most fitting solution for you! 

Optimal timing in the production process

Filtration is performed after storage and before bottling, making it a key step to ensure product purity and maintain the wine’s sensory characteristics.


Advanced BOLLFILTER filtration systems for the wine industry

Our filtration systems are designed to meet the highest standards:

  • Hygienic design: Minimizes the risk of unwanted compounds such as TCA (2,4,6-trichloroanisole and 2,3,4,6-tetrachloroanisole), which can cause a “corky” off-flavor.
  • Scalability: Flexible adaptation to different flow rates, suitable for small wineries and large-scale producers.
  • Durable membranes: Long service life and consistent performance without the need for consumables like bentonite.

  • Filtration expertise for more than 70 years
  • Expertise in ceramic membrane filtration - In various industrial applications
  • In-house membrane production - Tailored to specific needs
  • Global network
  • Reliable service - Worldwide
