Industrial sustainability has become an essential pillar in any technological sector, including ice machines.
At ITV Ice Makers, we are taking a step forward with the incorporation of a new, more sustainable filter system, designed to reduce environmental impact. This development not only benefits the planet, but also customers looking for more reliable, durable, and easy-to-maintain ice machines.
A renewed filter for a more sustainable consumption model
The filters used in ice machines serve an essential function: ensuring that clean water enters the circuit and protecting internal components from sediment, limescale, and impurities. Traditional filters required frequent replacement, generating large amounts of waste due to their composition and short lifespan.
With its new filtration system, ITV introduces a more durable and responsible design that aims to minimise the environmental impact of maintenance. This change translates into:
- Less waste generated, as fewer replacements are needed throughout the year and unnecessary materials are eliminated.
- Reduced use of single-use plastics, thanks to a more material-efficient design.
- Longer component life, which helps to reduce the environmental footprint associated with the replacement cycle.
- A simpler recycling process by reducing the amount of mixed elements in the filter.
This approach is integrated into the pillars of sustainability that ITV has been developing over the last few years, which seek to reduce the environmental impact of both the manufacture and maintenance of its machines.
Improved performance and reduced machine wear
The introduction of this new filter not only benefits the environment, but also the end user. A more stable and durable filtration system allows the internal components of the machine to work in cleaner conditions and requiring less effort.
This improvement is reflected in:
- Increased operational stability, as the filter maintains its effectiveness for longer.
- Fewer incidents, especially those related to blockages or sediment build-up.
- Less wear and tear on internal components, which helps to extend the service life of the equipment.
- More consistent ice production, avoiding performance fluctuations due to filtration problems.
All this translates into a more efficient operation with fewer interruptions and a more reliable experience for hospitality, catering, and other sectors that require ice on a continuous basis.
Towards a more responsible and efficient catalogue
This new development is part of ITV’s roadmap towards a more sustainable catalogue. For years, the company has been introducing changes aimed at reducing energy consumption, optimising the use of materials, and improving the durability of its components. The new filters are the latest in a series of measures that have already contributed to progress in this direction.
A double benefit: for customers and for the environment
Businesses in the sector are seeking solutions that can deliver good performance without increasing their environmental impact. With these new filters, we offer a tangible improvement that combines both sustainability and efficiency.
Customers will enjoy a cleaner, durable, and easy-to-maintain system while contributing to a more responsible resource consumption.
IVT’s new filters mark a development in the natural evolution of a sector that is increasingly committed to sustainability. A simple improvement in appearance, but with a real impact on both machine performance and waste reduction.
A simple innovation with real impact that reinforces ITV’s position as a leader in ice technology committed to the future. If you need to purchase filters for your ice machine, contact us here.
