Clearer Water. Purer Ice.
Great drinks deserve exceptional ice. The Bluewater Ice Station (created in collaboration with HTG Trading Ltd & Hubbard Systems) combines advanced water purification technology with Scotsman ice-making expertise to help produce beautifully clear, pure ice for premium drinks.
Designed for bars, restaurants, hotels and hospitality venues where presentation and quality matter, the Bluewater Ice Station uses Bluewater’s SuperiorOsmosis™ technology to remove unwanted minerals, impurities and contaminants from incoming water.
The result is exceptionally pure water, providing the ideal starting point for producing crystal-clear Scotsman Gourmet ice cubes that enhance drinks presentation without compromising flavour.
The Secret to Exceptional Ice? Start with the Water.
The quality of your ice begins long before it reaches the glass.
Even treated mains water contains dissolved minerals and impurities that can affect the appearance and quality of ice. These can contribute to cloudy cubes, unwanted deposits and inconsistent results.
The Bluewater Ice Station addresses this at source.
Built around the powerful Bluewater Pro water purification system, it uses patented SuperiorOsmosis™ technology to remove up to 99.7% of certain contaminants from the water supply, including dissolved impurities that conventional filtration systems may leave behind.
When paired with a suitable Scotsman Gourmet ice machine, this exceptionally pure water helps produce the beautifully clear, hard ice that premium drinks deserve.
Whether you’re serving a signature cocktail, a premium single malt or an expertly crafted iced coffee, every detail counts.
Why Choose the Bluewater Ice Station?
Crystal-Clear Ice That Makes an Impression
Reduce the dissolved minerals and impurities that can cause cloudiness, helping your Scotsman ice machine create beautifully clear Gourmet cubes. Ideal for premium cocktails, spirits and drinks where ice is part of the presentation.
Exceptional Water Purity
Bluewater’s SuperiorOsmosis™ technology provides advanced purification beyond conventional carbon filtration, removing a broad range of dissolved contaminants to deliver consistently high-quality water for ice production.
Let Your Drinks Speak for Themselves
Ice shouldn’t introduce unwanted flavours or odours into your drinks. By reducing impurities in the water supply, the Bluewater Ice Station helps protect the taste and character of carefully selected spirits, mixers and other premium beverages.
The Perfect Partner for Scotsman Gourmet Ice
Scotsman Gourmet ice machines are engineered to produce attractive, hard, slow-melting ice. Combining this specialist ice-making technology with highly purified water helps operators achieve the best possible results from their equipment.
Reduce Scale and Mineral Deposits
By removing dissolved minerals before the water enters the ice machine, the Bluewater Ice Station can help reduce limescale formation and mineral deposits, supporting equipment performance and simplifying ongoing maintenance.
Advanced Purification with Efficient Water Use
Bluewater Pro uses patented SuperiorOsmosis™ technology with a continuously self-cleaning membrane. Designed for efficient purification and water recovery, it offers a practical solution for demanding commercial applications.
Bluewater SuperiorOsmosis™ – Purity You Can See
At the heart of the Bluewater Ice Station is the Bluewater Pro water purifier.
Unlike conventional cartridge filtration, which primarily targets particles, chlorine and selected contaminants, SuperiorOsmosis™ uses advanced membrane purification to dramatically reduce dissolved substances in the incoming water.
Capable of filtering down to 0.0001 microns, the technology produces exceptionally pure water suitable for demanding hospitality applications.
For ice production, this means fewer unwanted dissolved minerals and contaminants entering the freezing process, helping Scotsman Gourmet ice machines produce clear, consistent cubes.
It’s a simple principle: better water creates better ice.
