Fujifilm makes the yeast filters that are used right before
cans and bottles are filled with draft beer.
This filter has stabilized the quality of canned and bottled
beer, and as a result, non-pasteurized draft beer is now
available at home.
Fujifilm’s filter technology, which evolved from opening
microscopic holes in photo film, is being used to create that
delicious glass of beer you enjoy.

Since the founding of Fujifilm, photographic film technology has been one of our fundamental technologies.
Here, we introduce a bit of trivia about how this technology
evolved, and evolved, and evolved, and its role in creating the

Using photographic film technology as a base, Fujifilm
engineers took on the challenge of two specific notions:

Research on these two topics merged, and after several years
of work, the porous filter was invented.
This porous filter with countless microscopic holes has
unmatched capability for catching tiny things - even objects
less than one micron!

Since 1970, Fujifilm has helped beer makers develop beer with a new
delicious taste.
In the final step of crafting a beer, the yeast must be filtered to preserve
the taste after it is canned or bottled. Fujifilm's porous filter does a
spectacular job in catching this yeast!

The removal of yeast is fully guaranteed due to the
innovative technology used in this filter.
Pasteurization is no longer required. Brewing in
Japan has changed forever.

Both the Fujifilm technical team and the beer company employees who spent years developing this filter were ecstatic
over their achievement.
The delicious taste of this new beer completely eliminated their
fatigue from the years of working on this development.

There's even more to the story of porous filters.
Fujifilm continued to develop new applications for this porous
filter with its unmatched capability of catching microscopic
matter. As of 2007, this technology is flourishing beyond the
world of draft beer.

It can catch components in blood and even DNA!
Porous filter technology is also used in the biochemical blood
tests you’re familiar with from health check-ups, gene analysis,
food traceability, crime investigation, and in the latest DNA tests.
