A new air filter that is said to be unique due to a “memory” and self-supporting media, has been launched by Northumberland-based manufacturer AAF Air Filters.
The built-in memory feature of the extended surface filter media, gives the product a unique self supporting characteristic that requires no metal to support the media as used in conventional panel filters. It also enables the product to retain its original pleated shape throughout its life, even if damaged in the handling and storage operations. With the product being metal free the filter can be fully incinerated, with no re-entrainment of oxidised particles and the elimination of cuts to the hands during handling.
Made from a controlled and repeatable blend of specific sized virgin fibres, this unique media has also improved moisture resistant characteristics and better airflow than conventional panel filters. The latter benefit is due in part to the consistent, uniform spacing of the perfect pleats.
