Smart Membrane Solutions Commitment to Sustainability and Product Stewardship

At Smart Membrane Solutions (SMS), we recognise the environmental pressures facing the dairy and food processing industries. We offer a range of technologies and process designs that help our customers reduce their environmental impact while maintaining operational efficiency.

We take our product stewardship responsibilities seriously, aiming to minimise the environmental footprint of our solutions across the entire product lifecycle.

Driving innovation through Research and Development

Our commitment to sustainability is backed by an active research and development programme focused on delivering the latest in sustainable membrane plant technology. We are continuously developing and refining solutions that support more efficient, resource-conscious production processes.

Examples of our sustainable solutions:

  • Recovery of dairy-product-and-process waters for site and plant reuse
  • Energy efficient designs that limit the total energy demand of installed equipment
  • Quality stainless steel plant components that will last the full life of the membrane plant asset
  • Clarification, recovery and reuse of commodity chemicals
  • High-solids concentration technologies in both Ultrafiltration/Nanofiltration and Reverse Osmosis processes that lower transportation volumes and other energy requirements for dairy product dehydration
  • SMS is actively researching  ways to recover/reuse end-of-life spiral membranes, so we can reduce the ongoing impact of membrane disposal to landfills.
