From Collaboration to Innovation: Titan Enterprises and RWC Partner on Breakthrough Dispense Solution
Since designing their first beverage flowmeter in the early 1990s, Titan Enterprises, a leading UK manufacturer of liquid flow measurement solutions, has had a long-standing supplier relationship with John Guest, part of the RWC’ s family of brands.
Starting out in 1949 as Reliance Manufacturing Company Pty Ltd( RMC) with a drive to transform industry, RWC was later born from the desire to challenge convention. A major landmark for the company came in 2018 with the acquisition of John Guest and its globally renowned push-fit brands.
Titan’ s NSF-Approved beverage meter, 800-series turbine flowmeters, and the Atrato ® ultrasonic flowmeter range all

A Partnership Built on Trusted Technology and Precision Engineering
In 2023, following years of evolving innovation since the launch of JG PolarClean by John Guest in 2010, RWC teamed up with Titan Enterprises to deliver an exciting solution for the beverage industry. A mutual customer discussion sparked the R & D collaboration, as users were already pairing RWC’ s PolarClean push-fit connectors alongside Titan’ s Beverage meters in beer dispensing systems. However, integrating the two products required additional modifications- introducing cost and complexity to a customer’ s installation. Together, RWC and Titan set out to change that.
To simplify installation and enhance efficiency, RWC and Titan began a partnership that led Titan to leverage its expertise in turbine technology and design, while RWC contributed its innovative tooling capabilities. The aim of the collaborative project was to provide a streamlined, state-of-theart single unit for beer dispensing systems by fully integrating Titan’ s turbine flow technology within RWC’ s pioneering PolarClean connector.
