water use by up to 80% and salt by
60%, with a payback in under two
years in the majority of cases.

At Pilgrim’s Europe, we installed
a recovery system that’s saved over
26 million litres of water in three
years. And at a leading brewery, we
significantly reduced energy costs
using low-energy pumps, low energy
membranes and significant monitoring,
resulting in a combined annual
saving of over £60,000 per year.

We track the results too, so our
clients can measure the savings
and report them as part of their
environmental goals. It’s proof that
sustainability can pay its own way
and that smart water management
can add real value to a site.

Q Sustainability is often seen
as expensive. How do you challenge
that view?
A It’s really about looking at the
bigger picture. It’s easy to justify
when you can prove an upgraded
system uses less water, chemicals,
and energy, helping more than just

the environment. It saves money
day to day. You’re paying for fewer
inputs and creating less waste
to deal with at the other end.

When we design something, we want
it to be efficient from day one and keep
saving money over its life. Sustainability
isn’t a cost. It’s an investment that
turns water treatment from a utility
into a source of long-term value.

Q What’s next for PureTec and the
beverage sector?
A The next few years will be about
getting more value from data. We’re
already seeing big steps forward
with remote monitoring, and new
ways of tracking performance in real
time. It all adds up to lower costs,
and a lowered water: product ratio
Our long-term aim is that every litre
of water going into a drinks plant either
ends up in the product or is recovered
and reused. With the right technology
and partners, that’s completely possible
today. Water can and should be treated
as a renewable, reusable asset.

Q What role does service and support
play in keeping systems running at
their best?
A Service is a huge part of what
we do. It’s no good installing a great
system if it isn’t looked after. Regular
maintenance and performance checks
help stop problems before they start
and keep everything working efficiently.

With remote monitoring, we can
now keep an eye on flow, pressure, and
performance in real time. If something
starts to drift, we can fix it before
it becomes an issue. It means less
downtime, lower running costs, and
peace of mind for the customer.

For us, sustainability doesn’t end
when the system’s switched on. It’s
about making sure it keeps performing
year after year and continues to deliver
value from every litre of water that
passes through it.
