Filtration

Filtration helps improve quality of life and protect human health by ensuring that indoor air is clean and liquids are pure

Filtration products and filter media are put to use in a variety of industries, from medical and automotive to home appliances and HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning).

Filtration products help keep machines running smoothly: improving the filtering efficiency of vacuum cleaner bags, for example, helps reduce the amount of engine power required for operation and extends the life and efficacy of the bag itself. In professions or activities where dust must be avoided or eliminated altogether – whether in laboratory cleanrooms and medical facilities, IT equipment manufacturing or even painting - filtration media are essential. Filtration products such as air cabin filters in motor vehicles help improve the air quality of interior environments, while face masks provide protection from germs and other harmful airborne particles.

High-performance materials for filtration media

Our high-performance spunbond and meltblown polypropylene (PP) materials make it possible for our customers to produce filter media with both coarse and very fine fibres according to their own specific requirements. Our materials offer superior performance, fulfilling customer requirements for:

• High air permeability
• Improved filtration efficiency
• Improved manufacturing efficiency and high productivity thanks to high line speeds, high output rates and reduced waste
• Excellent spinning stability yielding lower defect levels and enabling downgauging
• Pelletised materials for easy handling
• Consistent product performance
• Supply chain security and reliability
• Secure global supply of superior PP-based materials

As the market leader for over 30 years, we have a proven track record and a robust supply chain that ensures the reliable supply of superior PP fibre and meltblown materials across the globe. Our grades are listed as reference grades at leading machine suppliers, and thanks to our decades of experience and close cooperation with partners in the industry we can offer profound technical and regulatory expertise. As leading innovators, we continue to offer new material solutions to help our partners manufacture the pioneering applications of tomorrow.
