Donaldson is a leading worldwide provider of filtration systems for the compressor industry. On the European market the large demand led to the fact that an independent sales group situated in Haan/Rhineland, Germany under the direction of industrial engineer Mr. Holger Evertz, Director of Sales - Corporate Clients was formed. By grouping engineering and logistics Donaldson is able to provide the comprehensive range of all integrated filtration solutions to the manufacturers of stationary and mobile compressed air compressors.
Holger Evertz: "The co-operation with the compressor industry is not alone limited to the supply of components for filtration systems. It is supplemented by service engineering, whose task it is to optimally match all filtration processes with the compressor. Due to our worldwide co-operation with compressor developers, and supported by the results of our compressor laboratories in the USA, Japan and in Haan, Germany we can offer the manufacturers a comprehensive unique and individual service package."
The know-how of two strong Donaldson business segments are thereby optimally used: The segment "Engine" has a prominent position as a manufacturer of intake filters, oil filters, oil/air separators and exhaust silencers, and with the Donaldson Ultrafilter brand the entire segment of compressed air filtration and processing is served. Thus worldwide, Donaldson as "single sourcing" partner, can offer compressor manufacturers filtration solutions on the air intake and compressed air side from one hand. The experience shows, that smaller organisational overheads provide more than just logistical and economical advantages. The special economic use lies in making use of the technical potentials – from the use of the latest filter technology and optimally matching these to the total system up to standard customised solutions."
Holger Evertz: "As shown in the example of the automobile component suppliers, there are substantial opportunities in long-term co-operations. With our know-how we are able to offer individual solutions for all compressor types, which also secures the market position of the individual manufacturers of spare parts service. Exemplary is the new Donaldson filter medium Formix™, which shape can be precisely matched to the respective design and the efficiency parameter. We assume that this new efficient filter technology will in the long term replace the usual compressor technology adaptations in the automobile manufacture."
