Filtration is an important process in whiskey production for the removal of particles and haze, but conventional sheet filters have poor operability and challenges in terms of yield. By filtering whiskey with Paul's "Supra Pack Filter," the following benefits can be obtained: 【Benefits】 - Improved operability due to reduced filter replacement frequency - No drip loss, reducing the leakage of volatile substances into the environment - 33% reduction in installation space compared to conventional sheet filtration systems (*) - Improved liquid quality enhances color management and allows for the omission of the blending process When using sheet filters with a press, there are issues such as the labor involved in handling and replacing filters, significant hold-up amounts during product changes negatively impacting yield, and the occurrence of drip loss, which can lead to reduced yield and the need for reprocessing. Paul's Supra Pack technology has a proven track record in the production of brown spirits. By using it primarily as a replacement for flat filters that remove particles and haze, it has been demonstrated to lead to improved product quality, increased production capacity, and reduced operating costs.

Did you know that steam, which is frequently used in food manufacturing, greatly affects not only the quality of the products but also the efficiency of the production line? By filtering steam with Paul’s sintered stainless steel filter "PSS," you can obtain the following benefits: 【Benefits】 　■ Prevents foreign matter contamination in products 　■ Prevents equipment damage, clogging, decreased manufacturing efficiency, and downtime 　■ Prevents water hammer that can cause piping damage 　■ Maintains heat transfer efficiency in heat exchangers and other equipment 　■ Twice the product lifespan compared to competitors' products (based on our comparison) Surprisingly, steam can contain foreign matter. Specifically, this includes scale, sludge, debris from machinery, metal foreign objects, organic matter, precipitates, and other suspended substances found in the piping. By removing foreign matter before it contaminates food or manufacturing line equipment, you can prevent food recalls and also avoid decreases in manufacturing efficiency. Please consider using this as a means to assist in managing utility supply sources as required by HACCP and FSSC22000 standards.
