From Pilot to Industrial Scale: Klar2O and Ensinger Bring Smart Surface Filtration into Bottling Operations

A filtration technology can perform well in the laboratory. The more important question is whether it can operate reliably inside a real industrial process.

From late 2025 through April 2026, Klar2O and Ensinger Mineral-Heilquellen conducted a six-month pilot project integrating Klar2O filtration media into the process-water stream used for bottle cleaning at an Ensinger bottling facility.
