Media for nonwoven filters: the invisible heroes of our everyday lives

Air quality is of crucial importance in our everyday lives - for our health and for our well-being. Nonwoven filters are key to ensuring clean air. Nonwoven filters are processed in a variety of ways and consist of various parts, including nonwoven filter media. These media consist of fine fibers arranged in a dense structure. This enables them to filter dust, pollen and other pollutants from the air without affecting the air flow.

They are also used as coarse and fine dust filter media for extractor hoods, where they help to filter out unpleasant odors and harmful particles from the air. In air conditioning and ventilation systems, nonwoven air filters ensure clean and healthy air by efficiently filtering out pollen, dust and other pollutants.
