Carrier nonwovens for filter media

Filtura® Support

With Filtura® Support nonwovens we provide carrier materials for different air, liquid and automotive filtration applications in filter element manufacturing. Our high-performance fabrics give structural stability to filter media thereby improving processability of the layer material such as pleatability and rigidity. Our portfolio of support materials includes drylaid, spunbond and wetlaid nonwovens. Filtura® Support nonwovens are also a perfect substrate for activated carbon  layers.

✓ Compatibility with your filtration media layer
✓ Consistent, controlled pore size
✓ Outstanding stiffness and pleatability characteristics, which facilitate processing

Filtura® Support technologies

With extensive know-how and years of experience, we are at the forefront of innovation in nonwoven carrier fabrics for filter media. Our expertise spans a wide range of technologies, enabling us to deliver both standard solutions and tailor-made products that meet the unique demands of filter manufacturers.

  • 3D-Matting

    Filtura® Support 3D mats are designed for use as structured packing media or biofilm support in bioscrubbers and biotrickling filters. The fabrics create an ideal environment for the establishment and growth of microorganisms. The compression resistant matrixes provide a big specific surface area. And their design guarantees high flow rates for outstanding odor control.

  • Spunbond nonwovens

    Filtura® Support spunbond nonwovens add stiffness as well as dimensional and thermal stability to every filter medium including media with activated carbon. Suitable for all pleated filters our spunbond nonwovens contribute to improved filtration efficiency and extended lifetime of the finished filter elements.

  • Wetlaid nonwovens

    FIltura® Support wetlaid nonwovens form exceptionally uniform webs. Further features are the exactly defined pore size and high porosity. These wetlaid nonwovens are perfect as a support for different filter media technologies, such as PTFE membranes, electrospinning (nanofibers) and microglass.

  • Drylaid nonwovens

    Filtura® Support drylaid nonwovens provide excellent filtration efficiency due to their dense and consistent fiber structure, which captures a wide range of particle sizes. We offer our customers drylaid nonwovens untreated or with different treatments e. g. antimicrobial, antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, antistatic-coated or flame-retardant.
