Coffee and tea that people crave
Water makes up 98% of the brews you serve your customers, and it has a powerful effect on your product and your equipment. Keep making coffee customers come back for with solutions from Solventum.
Espresso that’s impressive
Espresso beverages are an art that requires mastery of the ingredients and process, as well as elaborate equipment susceptible to scale. We can help you continue to serve espresso that excites and delights.
Ice for a clear, refreshing chill
Everything in your water ends up in your ice — and in your ice machine, where dissolved minerals can damage its efficiency and longevity. With our solutions, your ice starts as cleaner, clearer water.
Delightful dispensed drinks
Cold beverage machines dispense familiar brands, so ensure the taste of your water won’t affect the flavors your customers’ want. Our solutions reduce the taste and odor of chlorine and chloramine, as well as their corrosive effects.
Consistent combi-oven cooking
Combi-ovens and steamers boil water for cooking steam, which can leave deposits and cause damage, while chlorine can promote corrosion. Use our solutions for cleaner water and to keep your equipment cooking.
Multiple needs, one solution
Your business may have multiple kinds of equipment using water in different ways for your foods and beverages, each with different needs. We can help you keep things simple with a single system that serves them all.

Protect equipment and taste from municipal treatment chemicals with 3M™ High Flow CLX Series
Most municipalities prevent the spread of water-borne diseases by treating their drinking water systems with chlorine or chloramines, which not only smell and taste bad, they promote corrosion in your equipment. Your municipality may also switch between them, and your current filter may not cover both.
Whatever your town uses, our 3M high flow CLX series filters deliver the industry’s highest chloramine and chlorine reduction in a single, compact solution. Select models also feature Integrated Membrane and Pre-Activated Carbon Technology ("I.M.P.A.C.T.") to reduce microbial cyst and bacteria.

Specialty ice machine filtration with 3M™ High Flow Series Carbonless Filters
Your ice machine may be under threat from excess moisture and other factors that can encourage the growth of a biofilm and the spread of associated bacteria — as well as particles and scale.
You can protect both your ice and your machine with filters that maintain municipal chlorine or chloramine levels, while removing particles and inhibiting scale. Our 3M high flow series carbonless filters have a pharmaceutical grade membrane that reduces bacteria and microbial cysts. Its nominal 0.2 µm particle filter pore size is 25x smaller than a standard 5 µm filter. It also has a built-in scale inhibitor.
