The safest bottled water quality
control system

Boost the efficiency of your bottled water lines by disinfecting pipes only when needed — saving on chemicals and minimising downtime.

Monitor

Swift clean-in-place (CIP) validation to prolong your production uptime.

Produce

Strengthen your on-site risk management by identifying critical control points and monitoring them regularly.

Control

Respond to unexpected bacterial growth by monitoring the microbial quality of your bottled water source.

How BactoSense SMART secures every stage of bottled water production

Raw water monitoring

Challenge: bottled water producers rely on multiple sources with inherent water quality variations due to seasonality or environmental factors. Early detection of these changes is key to consistent production.

Solution: BactoSense SMART monitors microbiological quality in real time, detecting abnormal changes early to prevent disruptions and keep production smooth.

Pretreatment monitoring

Challenge: while pretreatment systems remove particles or nutrients from the water, they can also cause microbiological issues during maintenance or commissioning.

Solution: BactoSense SMART can monitor the running-in of filter systems and optimise water discharge after filter washes.

Water treatment control

Challenge: strict control over disinfection and filtration is essential for safe bottled water production, as any lapse can compromise quality.

Solution: effectively eliminating microbiological contaminants before storage, BactoSense SMART ensures treatment meets microbial safety standards. Early detection of bacteria prevents contamination, supporting safe, high-quality bottled water.

Storage surveillance

Challenge: water quality can shift during storage due to microbial growth in pipes and tanks, which, if unchecked, may affect product quality.

Solution: BactoSense SMART proactively monitors the quality of water entering and exiting storage tanks to ensure stability, maintain product safety and support smooth operations.

Post-treatment quality assurance

Challenge: ensuring microbiologically safe water at each post-treatment stage, including disinfection and mineralisation, is key to regulatory compliance and consumer safety.

Solution: BactoSense SMART monitors microbial quality through the final production stages, helping to ensure each batch meets standards and adding a layer of quality control before bottling.

Filling line hygiene monitoring

Challenge: bottling in a controlled, hygienic environment is essential to avoid post-treatment contamination. Bacterial contamination at this stage can result in product recalls and damage to brand reputation.

Solution: implementing real-time monitoring at the filling line triggers immediate alerts about abnormal microbial levels, ensuring high hygiene standards and contaminant-free bottled water.

Line sanitation optimisation

Challenge: determining the ideal time for CIP can be challenging, and unnecessary cleanings increase downtime and water and chemical use without added benefit. Moreover, validating the effectiveness of sanitation using microbiological methods leads to costly production downtime.

Solution: BactoSense SMART enables data-driven CIP triggering, with before-and-after sampling to verify sanitation effectiveness. This approach helps you achieve thorough protection with fewer interruptions, leading to a more efficient, resource-saving sanitation process.

SUCCESS STORY

Protecting mineral water
quality for bottling

In mineral water production, quality must be protected at the source, not corrected later. A recent application shows how continuous online monitoring at the wellhead detects microbial changes within minutes, allowing operators to respond early and prevent contaminated water from reaching bottling. This strengthens HACCP control and provides audit-ready data for compliance.
