Dairy Filtration Solutions
Improve dairy product quality and safety with Pall’s filtration systems for milk clarification, cheese brine, whey processing, and sterile air applications.
Dairy Filtration Solutions for Safer, Higher-Quality Products
Pall’s advanced dairy filtration technologies help producers meet the highest standards for product safety, quality, and process efficiency. From milk clarification to cheese brine filtration, our solutions are designed to reduce microbial load, extend shelf life, and support sustainable operations.
Why Filtration Matters in Dairy Processing
Dairy products are highly sensitive to microbial contamination and particulate buildup. Effective filtration is essential to:
- Improve product clarity and consistency
- Reduce spoilage and extend shelf life
- Protect downstream equipment and membranes
- Meet regulatory and hygiene standards
Whether you're producing milk, cheese, yogurt, or whey-based products, Pall’s filtration systems help ensure product integrity from raw intake to final packaging.

Cheese Brine Filtration
Brine reuse is essential in cheese manufacturing, but it can become a source of microbial contamination. Pall’s filtration solutions remove particulates and bacteria, helping maintain brine clarity, reduce cleaning frequency, and improve product consistency.
Milk Fractionation
In milk protein concentration and whey processing, filtration plays a critical role in protecting ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis systems. Our solutions reduce fouling, improve yield, and support high-purity protein production.
Integrity Testing
Routine integrity testing is vital for validating sterile filtration systems. Pall offers reliable, easy-to-use integrity testing solutions that help dairy processors meet food safety standards and maintain process control.
Sterile Air and Gas Filtration with Emflon®
Pall's Emflon family of validated membrane cartridge filters caters to the dairy industry's need for the highest sterility assurance level. Emflon membrane filters pass a microbial liquid bacteria challenge validation that meets the requirements to eliminate microbes at ≥107 cfu/cm2 effective filtration area, according to ASTM Method 838-05. This ensures the filtered liquid is sterile and meets FDA guidelines (2004). Emflon is trusted by dairy processors worldwide for its proven performance in maintaining sterile conditions and protecting product integrity.
