Advanced hollow fiber membranes for sustainable food and beverage applications
NX Filtration is your membrane partner for filtering beverages and treating water. We offer high end microfiltration membranes and membrane modules for the food, beverage and pharma industry, as well as unique hollow fiber nanofiltration membranes to reduce your water footprint, improving quality and bringing down cost.
Pure taste through sustainable membrane technology
We develop and manufacture advanced hollow fiber membranes, for HFNF, UF and MF applications for the effective removal of organics and micropollutants — delivering energy-efficient, chemical-free water filtration, or efficient filtration of fluid foods.
Ideally suited for high quality – low energy clarification of beverages, such as wine and cider, tea and beer, as well as for dairy and pharmaceutical applications. Microfiltration is the backbone of our Food & Beverage business, but we also offer UF & HFNF membranes within our product portfolio. This enables NX Filtration to be the 1-stop provider for your membrane solutions. We are proud to offer a team of experts in both production & utilities within the Food & Beverage market.

Wine and cider clarification
Clarification is a vital step in producing high-quality wine and cider. During fermentation and fining, yeast cells and other suspended particles cause turbidity and can affect flavor and aroma. Clarification removes these unwanted solids, improving transparency and ensuring consistent downstream filtration. During fermentation and aging, a layer known as lees — composed of residual yeast and fine particles — settles at the bottom of the vat. Traditionally, this mixture was discarded, often wasting valuable product. Lees recovery allows producers to reclaim the remaining wine or cider from the lees, improving overall yield and sustainability.
NX Filtration’s microfiltration membranes, available in 1.5 mm and 3 mm diameters, are made entirely from PES, offering PFAS-free filtration and reliable performance. The robust hollow fiber structure ensures excellent clarification, gentle product handling, and easy cleaning — helping wineries and cider producers achieve the perfect balance of clarity, taste, and efficiency.

Tea filtration
Sustainability has become a defining element of modern tea production. As consumers and regulators increasingly
focus on environmental protection and social responsibility, tea producers face growing pressure to minimize their
environmental footprint.
By reducing chemical inputs, conserving water, and optimizing processing efficiency, the industry is moving toward more responsible
practices. NX Filtration’s microfiltration membranes support this transition by offering reliable contaminant removal, low energy consumption, and PFAS-free operation — ensuring high-quality tea production with minimal environmental impact.

Direct nanofiltration enabling water footprint goals
Direct nanofiltration is an innovative and proprietary technology that enables very precise and controlled rejection and flux properties of the membrane. Applying direct nanofiltration, incoming water streams can be optimally tailored for the production of highquality food and beverage products. This includes the removal of unwanted organics, micropollutants, color, viruses and bacteria, hardness, iron and heavy metals in a robust one-step process. In addition, wastewater from e.g. cleaning (CIP) and utilities can be treated efficiently and recycled. Various raw materials can be reclaimed since the direct nanofiltration membranes are chemically stable, enabling performance even at high caustic soda (NaOH) concentrations.
